Note 1.  Basis of Presentation

The  accompanying  condensed  consolidated  financial  statements of Hospitality
Properties Trust and its subsidiaries have been prepared without audit.  Certain
information and footnote  disclosures  required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial  statements have been condensed or omitted. We
believe the disclosures made are adequate to make the information  presented not
misleading.  However,  the accompanying  financial  statements should be read in
conjunction  with the financial  statements  and notes thereto  contained in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended  December 31, 1999. In the opinion
of management, all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments,
considered   necessary  for  a  fair  presentation   have  been  included.   All
intercompany  transactions and balances between Hospitality Properties Trust and
its subsidiaries have been eliminated. Our operating results for interim periods
and those of our tenants are not necessarily  indicative of the results that may
be expected for the full year.

In  December  1999  the  Securities  and  Exchange   Commission  released  Staff
Accounting  Bulletin  No. 101 ("SAB 101") which  provides  the staff's  views in
applying   generally   accepted   accounting   principles  to  selected  revenue
recognition  issues.  SAB 101 is  expected  to have no impact  on the  Company's
annual results of operations.  SAB 101 requires the Company to defer recognition
of certain  percentage rental income until certain  thresholds are met resulting
in deferral  from the first,  second and third  quarters  to the fourth  quarter
within a year.  We have  adopted  SAB 101  beginning  January 1,  2000,  without
restatement  of prior periods.  If SAB 101 were  applicable for the three months
ended March 31, 1999, net income  available for common  shareholders  would have
been $21,959  ($0.48/share) and the deferred  percentage rent balance would have
been $937.


Note 2.  Shareholders' Equity

In February 2000, we paid a $0.69 per share distribution to common  shareholders
for the quarter ended December 31, 1999. On April 4, 2000, our Trustees declared
a dividend of $0.69 per common share to be paid to common shareholders of record
as of April 24, 2000, which will be distributed on or about May 25, 2000.

In March 2000 our Trustees  declared a distribution  on the preferred  shares of
$0.59375 per preferred  share to be paid to preferred  shareholders of record as
of March 15, 2000, which was paid on March 31, 2000.

We do not  present  diluted  earnings  per  share  because  we have no  dilutive
instruments.

Note 3.  Indebtedness

As of March 31, 2000, we had zero outstanding on our revolving credit facility.

            adoption of SAB 101  effective  January 1, 1999. As a result of this
            adoption of SAB 101,  recognition  of percentage  rental revenue for
            the  twelve  weeks  ended  March 26,  1999 of $1,952  was  deferred.
            Recognition of percentage  rental revenue for the twelve weeks ended
            March 24, 2000 of $1,972 was deferred and is included in liabilities
            as  deferred  rent  on the  balance  sheet  as of  March  24,  2000.
            Percentage  rent will be  recognized  as income during the year once
            specified hotel sales thresholds are achieved.

Item 2.  Management's  Discussion  and Analysis of Financial  Condition  and
         Results of Operations

Results of Operations (dollar amounts in thousands, except per share amounts)

Three Months Ended March 31, 2000 versus 1999

Rental income for the 2000 first quarter was $55,122, a 12% increase over rental
income of  $49,042  for the 1999 first  quarter.  This  increase  was due to the
impact of rent from 13 hotels acquired  subsequent to the first quarter 1999 and
nine hotels acquired  during the first quarter 1999.  Rental income is comprised
principally of minimum rent, which was $55,111 for the 2000 first quarter, a 15%
increase over minimum rent of $48,102 for the 1999 first  quarter.  Minimum rent
increased because of acquisitions. Percentage rental income was zero and $939 in
the 2000 and 1999 first quarter,  respectively.  Due to the adoption of SAB 101,
recognition of $1,213 of percentage  rent revenue was deferred in the 2000 first
quarter until such time as annual  thresholds are met. If we had not adopted SAB
101, percentage rent would have increased by 30%. This increase is primarily the
result of hotels that began to yield  percentage rent during the last 12 months,
and to  increases  in total sales at some of our  hotels.  FF&E  reserve  income
represents amounts paid by our tenants into restricted accounts owned by us, the
purpose of which is to accumulate  funds for future  capital  expenditures.  The
terms of our leases  require  these  amounts to be calculated as a percentage of
total hotel sales at our properties.  The FF&E reserve income for the 2000 first
quarter was $5,967,  a 45% increase over FF&E reserve  income for the 1999 first
quarter  of  $4,114.   This  increase  is  due  principally  to  the  impact  of
acquisitions  and the increased  level of total hotel sales  experienced  at our
hotels.  Interest income for the 2000 first quarter was $1,088,  a $971 increase
from interest  income of $117 for the 1999 first quarter.  This increase was due
to a higher average cash balance in the 2000 period.

Interest  expense for the 2000 first  quarter was $8,828,  an 11% decrease  over
interest  expense of $9,935 for the 1999 first quarter.  The decrease was due to
lower average  borrowing  during the 2000 period.  Depreciation and amortization
expense for the 2000 first quarter was $20,176, a 17% increase over depreciation
and  amortization  expense of $17,271 for the 1999 first quarter.  This increase
was due  principally  to the full  quarter's  impact of the  depreciation  of 13
hotels  acquired  subsequent to first quarter 1999 and the nine hotels  acquired
during the first quarter 1999. General and  administrative  expense for the 2000
first quarter was $3,639, a 15% increase over general and administrative expense
of $3,171 in the 1999 first  quarter.  This increase is due  principally  to the
impact of additional hotels purchased throughout 1999.

Net income for the 2000 first  quarter  was  $29,534,  a 29%  increase  over net
income for the 1999 first quarter of $22,896.  The increase was primarily due to
higher rental and interest  income and lower  interest  expense,  the effects of
which were  partially  offset by an  increase  in  depreciation  expense.  These
increases in rental  income and  depreciation  were  primarily the result of the
hotel  acquisitions  during  1999.  The  increased  interest  income and reduced
interest  expense  were the result of  repayment of amounts due under our credit
facility and an increase in the average balance invested in short term deposits.

Net income  available  for common  shareholders  for the 2000 first  quarter was
$27,753,  a 21% increase over net income  available for common  shareholders for
the 1999  first  quarter of  $22,896.  This  change  resulted  from the  factors
discussed  above,  partially  offset by  preferred  dividends  in the 2000 first
quarter.

On a per share basis, net income available for common  shareholders was $0.49, a
2% decrease  from the 1999 first  quarter.  The  decrease  results  from the net
effect  of the  factors  discussed  above,  offset  by the 24%  increase  in the
weighted average shares outstanding resulting from common share issuances during
1999 and the adoption of SAB 101.

Funds from  operations,  or FFO, is defined as net income  available  for common
shareholders before  extraordinary and non-recurring items plus depreciation and
amortization  of real estate  assets plus deferred  percentage  rent relating to
operations  from the  current  periods  plus  deposits  made into  refurbishment
escrows which are not included in revenue.  Cash available for distribution,  or
CAD, is FFO less  refurbishment  escrows plus amortization of deferred financing
costs and other non-cash charges. For the three months ended March 31, 2000, FFO
was $52,601 or $0.93 per share and CAD was  $44,029 or $0.78 per share.  FFO was
$43,238  or $0.95 per share and CAD was  $36,909  or $0.81 per share in the 1999
period.  Changes in FFO and CAD are  attributable to the effects on revenues and
expenses of acquisition and financing activities in 1999 discussed above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources  (dollar amounts in thousands,  except per share
amounts)

Our total  assets  decreased  to $2.18  billion as of March 31,  2000 from $2.19
billion  as  of  December  31,  1999.  The  decrease  resulted   primarily  from
depreciation expense.

All of our leases  require  the  tenants to post a security  deposit,  generally
equal to one year's rent. The security  deposit is payable to each tenant in the
event the tenant elects not to renew its lease.  The terms of some of our leases
and the  related  guarantees  required  some of our  tenants to deposit  with us
$32,442 in addition to their security deposits to secure their obligations under
the  leases.  These  guarantee  deposits  are  payable to our  tenants  upon the
achievement and documentation of certain operating performance thresholds at the
leased  properties;  we expect  that  guarantee  deposits of $5,275 will be paid
during 2000.

At  March  31,  2000,  we had  $77,173  of cash and  cash  equivalents  and zero
outstanding  on our  $300,000  revolving  credit  facility.  From  time to time,
including currently,  we consider entering or pursuing  transactions which would
provide equity or debt capital of various forms and on various terms. On January
15, 1998, our shelf  registration  statement for up to $2 billion of securities,
including debt securities, was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange
Commission.  An  effective  shelf  registration  statement  enables  us to issue
specific  securities to the public on an expedited  basis by filing a prospectus
supplement with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Currently, we have $1.0
billion  available  on our shelf  registration  statement.  We believe  that the
capital  available  to us from time to time  will be  sufficient  to enable  the
execution of our business plan.

All of our hotels  are leased to and  operated  by third  parties.  All costs of
operating and maintaining our hotels are paid by our tenants.  All of our leases
require a  percentage,  usually  5%, of total  hotel sales to be escrowed by the
tenant or operator as a reserve for future renovations and refurbishment  ("FF&E
Reserve"). As of March 31, 2000, we and our tenants had approximately $31,659 on
deposit in these refurbishment escrow accounts.

To maintain  our status as a real estate  investment  trust  ("REIT")  under the
Internal  Revenue  Code,  we  must  meet  certain  requirements   including  the
distribution of a substantial portion of our taxable income to our shareholders.
Because we are a REIT, we expect not to pay federal income taxes.

Distributions are based principally on cash available for distribution, which is
net income  available for common  shareholders  plus deferred  percentage  rent,
depreciation  and  amortization  of real  estate  assets  and  certain  non-cash
charges, less FF&E Reserve income. Cash available for distribution may not equal
cash provided by operating activities because the cash flow is affected by other
factors not included in the cash available for distribution calculation.

On March 7, 2000, our Trustees  declared a distribution  on preferred  shares of
$0.59375 per preferred  share to be paid to preferred  shareholders of record as
of March 15, 2000, which was distributed on March 31, 2000.

Common share  distributions  with respect to the fourth  quarter 1999 results of
$0.69 per common share were made in February  2000.  Common share  distributions
declared  with  respect to first  quarter 2000 results of $0.69 per common share
will be paid to shareholders on or about May 25, 2000.

Funding for current  expenses and  distributions  is provided by our operations,
primarily our leasing of owned hotels.

Property Leases

As of March 31, 2000, we own 210 hotels which are grouped into  combinations and
leased to 11 separate  affiliates  of publicly  owned hotel  companies  Marriott
International,  Inc., Host, Crestline,  Wyndham  International,  Inc., Homestead
Village,  Inc.,  Candlewood  Hotel Company and ShoLodge,  Inc. The tables on the
following pages summarize the key terms of our leases and some recent  operating
results of our tenants.

Seasonality

Our hotels have historically  experienced  seasonal  differences  typical of the
hotel industry with higher revenues in the second and third quarters of calendar
years  compared  with the first and fourth  quarters.  This  seasonality  is not
expected to cause  fluctuations in our rental income because we believe that the
revenues  generated by our hotels will be sufficient  for the tenants to pay our
rents on a regular basis notwithstanding seasonal fluctuations.


Item 3.  Quantitative  and  Qualitative  Disclosures  About  Market Risk (dollar
amounts in thousands)

We are exposed to risks associated with market changes in interest rates.

We manage our  exposure to this market risk by  monitoring  available  financing
alternatives.  Our strategy to manage  exposure to changes in interest  rates is
unchanged since December 31, 1999.  Other than described below we do not foresee
any significant  changes in our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates or in
how we manage this  exposure in the near future.  At March 31,  2000,  our total
outstanding  debt  consisted  of three  issues of fixed rate,  senior  unsecured
notes:

Principal Balance            Per Year            Maturity      Interest Payments Due          Expense Per Year

$115,000                      8 1/4%               2005              Monthly                     $ 9,488
$150,000                        7%                 2008           Semi-Annually                   10,500
$150,000                      8 1/2%               2009              Monthly                      12,750
</TABLE>

No  principal  repayments  are due under  these notes  until  maturity.  Because
interest on all of our  outstanding  debt at March 31, 2000,  is at fixed rates,
changes  in  interest  rates  during  the term of this debt will not  effect our
operating results.  If at maturity these notes were refinanced at interest rates
which are 10%  higher  than  shown  above,  our per annum  interest  cost  would
increase by approximately  $3,273. Based on the balances outstanding as of March
31, 2000, a hypothetical immediate 10% change in interest rates would change the
fair value of our fixed rate debt obligations by approximately $21,000.

Each of our fixed rate debt  arrangements  allow us to make  repayments  earlier
than the stated  maturity  date.  In some  cases,  we are  allowed to make early
repayment  at par  after a set date and in other  cases we are  allowed  to make
prepayments only at a premium to face value.  These prepayment rights may afford
us the  opportunity  to mitigate the risk of  refinancing  at maturity at higher
rates by refinancing prior to maturity.

Our line of credit bears  interest at floating  rates and matures in 2002. As of
March 31,  2000,  there was zero  outstanding  and $300,000  was  available  for
drawing under our revolving  credit  facility.  Our revolving credit facility is
available to finance our commitments and for general business purposes. Although
we regularly have new investment  opportunities in various stages of discussion,
negotiation  or  diligence,  as  of  March  31,  2000,  we  had  no  acquisition
commitments.  Repayments  under the revolving credit facility may be made at any
time without penalty.  Our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates may in the
future increase if we incur debt to fund future acquisitions or otherwise.
