                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)
                                September 30,1996


BASIS OF ACCOUNTING

Federal Income Taxes

The Corporation has qualified and has elected to be taxed as a real estate
investment trust under Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code.
Accordingly, no provisions have been made for Federal income taxes in the
financial statements.

Foreclosed Property

The foreclosed property is a leasehold interest in the Canyon Resort property
which was acquired by foreclosure in September 1988. Title to the fee simple
estate of the property, consisting of approximately 500 acres, is vested as
restricted Indian land through the United States Department of Indian Affairs.
The master ground lease expires in the year 2031. The Corporation's leasehold
interest in the property consists of a 173 room hotel and convention center
which has been closed since June,1987; an operating 18 hole public golf course;
and subleases on approximately 550 homesites and a private golf course and
country club. Due to the Corporation's status as a trustee, resulting from the
foreclosure sale, the Corporation is not currently paying ground rent under the
Indian master lease.


PLAN OF DISPOSITION OF ASSETS AND LIQUIDATION

On June 28, 1988 the stockholders of the Corporation approved a Plan of
Disposition of Assets and Liquidation whereby all the remaining investments held
by the Corporation would be sold and the proceeds distributed to stockholders in
complete liquidation and dissolution of the Corporation.

INVESTMENTS HELD FOR DISPOSITION

The Corporation's investments are summarized as follows:

                                           September 30,          December 31,

its investments and administers the day-to-day operations of the Corporation,
all subject to the general supervision of the Corporation's Board of Directors.

                     AMERICANA HOTELS AND REALTY CORPORATION
                               September 30, 1996


Item 2:       MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
              AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

a.            Liquidity and Capital Resources

              At September 30, 1996 the Corporation had $ 2,408,000 of cash and
              short-term investments.

              On March 27, 1996 the Corporation received net cash proceeds of
              $12,276,000 on the sale of its restructured first mortgage loan on
              the JFK Airport Hilton. The sale resulted in a loss of $2,224,000
              which was charged to the investment loss reserve in the first
              quarter. On June 18, 1996 the Corporation distributed to
              stockholders $ 13,049,000 ($ 2.00 per share) as a liquidating
              distribution.

              The Corporation's sole remaining real estate investment is a
              leasehold interest in the Canyon Resort in Palm Springs,
              California. In December 1989, the Corporation entered into a
              purchase and sale agreement to sell its leasehold interest in the
              property to a potential buyer who planned a major development
              project on and around the hotel and golf course sites. The
              Corporation has executed extension agreements to the purchase and
              sale agreement, the most recent of which was signed in November,
              1994, extending the agreement through June, 1995. Although
              negotiations continue, the Corporation has no evidence of the
              potential buyer's financing, and there can be no assurance that a
              closing will ultimately take place. If the potential buyer fails
              to obtain financing, the Corporation intends to continue to offer
              the property for sale to others. The price that the Corporation
              can attain from a sale of the leasehold interest will be dependent
              upon a number of factors, including the ability of the property to
              be exposed to the open market for a reasonable period of time.
              Although there can be no assurance as to the ultimate sales price
              that can be achieved, the Corporation currently believes the
              carrying value of the Canyon Resort can be recovered in a sales
              transaction.

b)            Results of Operations

              Results for the third quarter of 1996 produced a loss of $137,000,
              compared to earnings of $228,000 in 1995. Results for the first
              nine months of 1996 were a loss of $31,000 compared to earnings of
              $521,000 for the first nine months of 1995. The substantial
              decline in 1996 earnings is due to the sale of the JFK Airport
              Hilton mortgage loan which was sold on March 27,1996.

              Interest income relates to earnings on short-term investments and
              the JFK Airport Hilton mortgage loan.

              Total expenses decreased 29% in the first nine months of 1996
              compared to 1995. There was a $90,000 reduction in the advisory
              fee due to a modification of the advisory agreement in November
              1995. Also, deferred compensation was $63,000 lower in 1996
              compared to 1995, due to a 1995 increase in the Corporation's
              common stock price which caused an upward adjustment in the cost
              of the stock portion of the directors' deferred compensation plan.
              Legal expenses have declined $84,000 due to the disposition of the
              JFK Airport Hilton mortgage loan.
