In the second half of 2025, Host added four properties with LEED® certification to our portfolio, further advancing our commitment to owning one of the most sustainable and resilient portfolios in the industry. Our latest LEED certifications include Grand Hyatt Atlanta in Buckhead (LEED Silver®), Tampa Airport Marriott (LEED Certified®), Hyatt Place Waikiki Beach (LEED Gold®) and Hyatt Regency Reston (LEED Silver®). Additionally, Grand Hyatt Washington—which previously had its meeting space LEED-certified—achieved LEED Silver® certification following its comprehensive guestroom renovation.

LEED® Certification Highlights:

• 24 LEED-certified properties, including five LEED Gold® hotels as well as Host’s corporate headquarters
• Over 30% of consolidated portfolio LEED-certified; on track to achieve our 40% target by 2030
• 8.6 million square feet of certified space
• 243% increase in certifications compared to 2019

These achievements underscore Host’s leadership as the first lodging REIT to issue green bonds and the only lodging REIT with a sustainability-linked credit facility supporting green building certification.
