               This Amendment No. 2 amends and supplements that certain Schedule
13D filed on November 18, 1996 and amended on September 1, 1997 (as amended, the
"Schedule 13D"), by GEHOP, GE, GEIM, GEPT and PT, as defined therein, to report
such entities' beneficial ownership of shares of Common Stock of Doubletree
Corporation (the "Issuer"). All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein
shall have the meaning set forth in the Schedule 13D.

        Text of the Schedule 13D is hereby deleted in its entirety, and shall
read as follows: "On September 1, 1997, the Issuer, Promus Hotel Corporation
("Old Promus"), and New Promus (a newly formed corporation jointly owned by the
Issuer and Old Promus) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger
Agreement"), pursuant to which New Promus formed two subsidiaries that merged
with and into the Issuer and Old Promus such that the Issuer and Old Promus
became wholly owned subsidiaries of New Promus (the "Mergers"). Pursuant to the
Merger Agreement, upon the consummation of the Mergers on December 19, 1997, (i)
each outstanding share of Common Stock of the Issuer has been converted into the
right to receive one share of common stock of New Promus, (ii) each outstanding
share of common stock of Old Promus has been converted into the right to receive
0.925 shares of common stock of New Promus, and (iii) each outstanding warrant
or option to purchase shares of the Issuer Common Stock or Old Promus common
stock has been converted into an option to purchase shares of common stock of
New Promus on a 1:1 and 0.925:1 basis, respectively. As a result of the
foregoing, the Issuer and Old Promus became wholly owned subsidiaries of New
Promus.

               Upon consummation of the Mergers, the shares of Common Stock of
the Issuer beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons prior to the Mergers were
converted into the shares of common stock of New Promus on a 1:1 basis. As a
result, the Reporting Persons no longer own any shares of Common Stock of the
Issuer."
