Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
On September 15, 2020, Host Hotels & Resorts, Inc. ("Host Inc."), the general
partner of Host Hotels & Resorts, L.P. ("Host L.P."), issued a press release
announcing, among other things, preliminary top-line results for the months of
July and August 2020. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1
to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
The press release includes preliminary estimates of certain financial
information for the months ended July 31, 2020 and August 31, 2020 and other
financial information that will form a part of our results for the quarter ended
September 30, 2020. We have disclosed these preliminary estimates in good faith
based upon our internal estimates. These estimates are preliminary and unaudited
and are inherently uncertain and subject to change as we complete our financial
statements for the quarter. Given the timing of these estimates, we have not
completed our customary financial closing and review procedures, including the
completion of final journal entries and management's review of the results. We
may identify other items that require material adjustments to our preliminary
estimates as we close our books for the quarter. Final results for the months
ended July 31, 2020 and August 31, 2020 could differ materially from these
estimates. Additionally, there can be no assurance that the results for the
quarter ended September 30, 2020 will be consistent with our results for the
months of July and August, and any such differences could be material. You
should exercise caution in relying on this information and should not place
undue reliance on this information or draw any inferences from this information
regarding financial or operating data not yet provided or available. These
preliminary results are subject to review by our audit committee and our
independent registered public accounting firm. Accordingly, our independent
auditors do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect
thereto. Important factors that could cause our actual results to differ from
our preliminary estimates are set forth under the headings "Risk Factors" in our
most recent annual report on Form 10-K and subsequent quarterly reports on
Form 10-Q and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The information contained in this Item 7.01 and in Exhibit 99.1 hereto is
furnished and shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise
subject to the liabilities of that Section and shall not be deemed incorporated
by reference in any filing made by Host Inc. or Host L.P. under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as set forth by specific
reference in such filing.

Forward-looking statements are based on management's current expectations and
