ITEM 2.  ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS

         On January 2, 1997, RFS Partnership, L.P., a Tennessee limited
partnership (the "Partnership") of which RFS Hotel Investors, Inc., a Tennessee
corporation (the "Registrant") serves as general partner, consummated the
acquisition of four hotel properties in California, three Sheraton Four Points
hotels and one Sheraton hotel (the "Hotels") as follows:  (1) a 174 room
Sheraton Four Points hotel in Sunnyvale, California (the "Sunnyvale Hotel"),
(2) a 197 room Sheraton Four Points hotel in Bakersfield, California
(the "Bakersfield Hotel"), (3) a 214 room Sheraton Four Points hotel in
Pleasanton, California (the "Pleasanton Hotel") and (4) a 229 room Sheraton
hotel in San Jose, California (the "San Jose Hotel").  The four Hotels were
acquired from a group of affiliated sellers.  The Sunnyvale Hotel was purchased
from Gus Enterprises-VIII, a California general partnership; the Bakersfield
Hotel was purchased from Gus Enterprises-X, a California limited partnership;
the Pleasanton Hotel was purchased from Gus Enterprises-XI, a California
limited partnership, and the San Jose Hotel was purchased from Gus
Enterprises-XII, a California limited partnership in negotiated transactions
(Gus Enterprises-VIII, Gus Enterprises-X, Gus Enterprises-XI and Gus
Enterprises-XIII are hereafter referred to as the "Selling Partnerships").  The
Selling Partnerships are unrelated to the Registrant.  The Hotels were acquired
by the Partnership for an aggregate of 2,244,934 units of limited partnership
interest in the Partnership ("Units") and $52,019,821 in cash, which sum
includes closing costs, and of which $50,000,000 was obtained from the proceeds
of the Partnership's line of credit with Boatmen's Bank of Tennessee.  The
Hotels will continue to be operated as hotel properties.

         The 2,244,934 Units issued in connection with the acquisition of the
Hotels have redemption rights which enable the holders to redeem their Units in
exchange for shares of Common Stock of the Registrant on the one-for-one basis
or, at the election of the Registrant, for cash.  Generally, the redemption
rights for the Units issued in connection with the Hotels may not be exercised
until July 1997.  Annual distributions are payable on the Units generally equal
to the distributions on shares of Common Stock.

         The Partnership has leased the Hotels to RFS, Inc., a wholly owned
subsidiary of Doubletree Corporation (the "Lessee") pursuant to percentage 
leases which provide for rent equal to the greater of (i) fixed base rent or
(ii) percentage rent based on room revenues of the hotels.  The percentage
leases for the Hotels have terms of fifteen years.  The Lessee sub-leases the
restaurant at each of the Hotels (the "Restaurants") to non-affiliated
third-parties pursuant to subleases which provide for the payment of base rents
and additional rent based on a percentage of the Restaurants' revenues
exceeding defined thesholds.  The Lessee pays rent for the Restaurants to the
Partnership based upon 90% of the rent received by the Lessee under the
subleases, subject to a minimum.

         The rent for each of the Hotels is as follows:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS


To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
RFS Hotel Investors, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheet for certain hotel
properties (the "GUS Hotels") described in Note 1 to the financial statements as
of December 31, 1995 and the related combined statements of operations,
partners' equity and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the management of the GUS Hotels. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of the GUS Hotels as of December
31, 1995 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year
then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

  2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

       BASIS OF COMBINATION

       The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of the
       aforementioned limited partnerships. The limited partnerships are under
       common control and substantially all of the net investment in hotel
       properties and related assets are anticipated to be sold to RFS Hotel
       Investors, Inc.

       INVESTMENT IN HOTEL PROPERTIES

       Hotel properties are recorded at cost and are depreciated using the
       straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets of 40
       years for buildings and improvements and 5 years for furniture, fixtures
       and equipment. Major renewals, betterments and improvements are
       capitalized. At each reporting period, the Company reviews the carrying
       value of each hotel property to determine if facts and circumstances
       exist which would suggest that the investment in the hotel property may
       be impaired or that the depreciation period should be modified. If facts
       or circumstances exist which indicate impairment is possible, the Company
       will prepare a projection of the undiscounted future cash flows, without
       interest charges, of the specific hotel property and determine if the
       investment in hotel property is recoverable based on the undiscounted
       future cash flows. If impairment is indicated, an adjustment will be made
       to the carrying value of the hotel property based on the discounted
       future cash flows. The Company does not believe that there are any
       current facts or circumstances indicating impairment of any of its
       investments in hotel properties at December 31, 1995 or September 30,
       1996.

       Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged against operations
       as incurred. Upon disposition, both the asset and accumulated
       depreciation accounts are relieved and the related gain or loss is
       credited or charged to the income statement.

  2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED

       CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

       All highly liquid debt investments with a maturity of three months or
       less when purchased are considered to be cash equivalents.

       DEFERRED COSTS

       Deferred costs consist primarily of loan costs which are recorded at
       cost. Amortization of loan costs is computed using the interest method
       over the life of the related note payable. Accumulated amortization on
       the deferred costs is $109,000 at December 31, 1995.

       REVENUE RECOGNITION

       Revenue is recognized as earned. Ongoing credit evaluations are performed
       and an allowance for potential credit losses is provided against the
       portion of accounts receivable which is estimated to be uncollectible.
       Such losses have been within management's expectations.

       ADVERTISING COSTS

       Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.

       PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

       The Company (which is comprised of four individual partnerships) is not a
       taxable entity for income tax purposes, and thus, no income tax expense
       has been recorded in the financial statements. Income from the Company is
       taxed to the partners in their individual returns.

       CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

       The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times,
       may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any
       losses in such accounts.

       USE OF ESTIMATES

       The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
       accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
       assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
       and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
       financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
       during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
       estimates.

</TABLE>


       Rental expense was approximately $66,000 for the year ended December 31,
       1995.

       The franchise licenses held by the Company require the payment of
       certain franchise and marketing fees to the franchisor. Three of the four
       hotels entered into new franchise agreements in 1995. The fees required
       under the new agreements increase annually in 1% increments from 1% in
       1995 to 5% in 1999. The fees are generally based on a percentage of room
       revenue.

       The Company's Pleasanton hotel is subject to a special tax assessment
       related to certain interstate exchanges and other highway and road
       improvements. The special tax assessment is used by the local taxing
       authorities to pay a portion of its principal and interest payments on
       the bonds used to finance the improvements. The special assessment for
       the year ended December 31, 1995 was approximately $206,000.

       The Company has two employee benefit plans with one participant in each
       respective plan. One plan is a defined contribution plan and provides for
       contributions by the Company based on a percentage of the participants'
       annual earnings. The other plan provides for payments of $27,000 per year
       through 2002.

  5.   DISCLOSURES ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

       The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair
       value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable
       to estimate that value.

       CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS AND RESTRICTED CASH

       The carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short maturity
       of those instruments.

       NOTES PAYABLE

       The fair value of the Company's notes payable is based on the current
       rates offered to the Company for similar debt instruments of the same
       remaining maturities.

       The estimated fair value of the Company's financial instruments is as
       follows:

       hotel with Tamalpa's Hotel Services Corporation ("THS") which expire in
       1999. Certain partners of the Company are officers or shareholders of
       THS. The management agreements provide for the payments of a fee based
       upon a percentage of each hotel's total revenue. Management fees charged
       to the Company by THS were $1,451,000 in 1995.

       The mortgage note payable for the Bakersfield hotel is held by
       Bakersfield Partners ("BP"). Certain partners of the Company are also
       partners of BP. Included in accounts payable and accrued expenses at
       December 31, 1995 is approximately $60,000 of accrued interest related to
       the Bakersfield note. Interest charged on the Bakersfield note was
       approximately $247,000 in 1995.

       The mortgage notes payable on the Sunnyvale, Pleasanton and San Jose
       properties are guaranteed by a partner of the Company.

       During 1995, the Company leased one of its restaurants to a third party.
       The lease term is 10 years and requires minimum payments to the Company
       of $75,000 per year.
