HOST HOTELS & RESORTS, INC.

16,831,794 Shares of Common Stock

This prospectus supplement supplements the prospectus dated June 29, 2007 relating to the resale by selling stockholders of shares of our common stock that may be issuable upon exchange of the 2.625% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2027 (which we refer to as the 2007 debentures) of our operating partnership, Host Hotels & Resorts, L.P. This prospectus supplement also relates to an indeterminate number of additional shares of our common stock that may be issued from time to time upon exchange of the 2007 debentures as a result of exchange rate adjustments under the terms of the debentures.

You should read this prospectus supplement in conjunction with the prospectus. This prospectus supplement is not complete without, and may not be delivered or used except in conjunction with, the prospectus, including any amendments or supplements to it. This prospectus supplement is qualified by reference to the prospectus, except to the extent that the information provided by this prospectus supplement supersedes information contained in the prospectus.

No securities are being offered or sold by us pursuant to this prospectus supplement. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of these shares by the selling stockholders.

Our common stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “HST”. On August 24, 2010, the last reported sale price of our common stock was $13.10 per share.

Our principal executive offices are located at 6903 Rockledge Drive, Suite 1500, Bethesda, Maryland, 20817. Our phone number is (240) 744-1000.

Investing in the offered securities involves risks. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 1 of the prospectus dated June 29, 2007.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of the offered securities or determined if this prospectus supplement is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

The date of this prospectus supplement is August 25, 2010.

The section entitled “Selling Stockholders” in the prospectus is superseded in its entirety by the following:

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

The 2007 debentures were originally issued by Host L.P., our operating partnership, and sold by the initial purchasers of the 2007 debentures in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act to persons reasonably believed by the initial purchasers to be qualified institutional buyers as defined by Rule 144A under the Securities Act. Currently there is outstanding $525,601,000 aggregate principal amount of the 2007 debentures. Under certain circumstances, we may issue shares of our common stock upon the exchange of the 2007 debentures. In such circumstances, the recipients of shares of our common stock, whom we refer to as the selling stockholders, may use this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement to resell from time to time the shares of our common stock that we may issue to them upon the exchange of the 2007 debentures. Information about selling stockholders is set forth in this prospectus, and information about additional selling stockholders may be set forth in a prospectus supplement, in a post effective amendment, or in filings we make with the SEC under the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this prospectus.

The following table sets forth information, as of August 19, 2010, with respect to the selling stockholders and the maximum number of shares of our common stock that we expect could become beneficially owned by each selling stockholder should we issue shares of our common stock to such selling stockholder that may be offered pursuant to this prospectus upon the exchange of the 2007 debentures. The information is based on information provided by or on behalf of the selling stockholders. Solely for purposes of determining the number of shares covered by this registration statement, the number of shares of our common stock issuable upon the exchange of the 2007 debentures shown in the table below is based upon the exchange of the full principal amount of 2007 debentures held by each selling stockholder at the current exchange rate of 32.0239 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2007 debentures. However, due to the exchange settlement provisions of the 2007 debentures, the greatest number of shares of our common stock that we may actually issue upon any exchanges of 2007 debentures is a number of shares having an aggregate value equal to the difference between the aggregate exchange value and the aggregate principal amount of 2007 debentures exchanged. In other words, shares issuable upon exchange of the debentures can only have a value equal to the net amount (as defined in the debentures) and not the principal amount. The return of the principal amount in shares was assumed solely for purposes of determining the shares registered under this registration statement. The exchange rate on the 2007 debentures is subject to adjustment in certain events. Accordingly, the number of shares of our common stock issuable upon the exchange of the 2007 debentures may increase or decrease from time to time. The percent of shares of common stock beneficially owned following the exchange is based on 662,784,044 shares of common stock outstanding as of August 13, 2010.

Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes below, we believe that the persons and entities named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares beneficially owned. Because the selling stockholders may offer, pursuant to this prospectus, all or some portion of the common stock listed below, no estimate can be given as to the amount of common stock that will be held by the selling stockholder upon consummation of any sales. In addition, the selling stockholders listed in the table may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of, in transactions exempt from registration requirements of the Securities Act, some or all of their 2007 debentures since the date as of which such information was provided to us.

Unless otherwise set forth below, no selling stockholder has had any material relationship with us or any of our affiliates within the past three years, other than as a stockholder.

Information about the selling stockholders may change over time. Any changed information given to us by the selling stockholders will be set forth in prospectus supplements or amendments to this prospectus if and when necessary.

(1)

Includes shares of common stock issuable upon the exchange of debentures assuming an exchange rate of 32.0239 common shares for each $1,000 principal amount of debentures and a cash payment in lieu of any fractional shares. The exchange rate is subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms of the debentures.

(2)	Assumes the selling stockholder sells all of the common stock being offered by this prospectus.
