TERMINATION OF REGISTRATION

This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 relates to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (Registration No. 333-37888) of MeriStar Hospitality Corporation, a Maryland Corporation (“MeriStar”).

On May 2, 2006, pursuant to the terms of an agreement and plan of merger, dated as of February 20, 2006 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among MeriStar, MeriStar Hospitality Operating Partnership, L.P. (“MeriStar Operating Partnership”), Alcor Holdings LLC (“Alcor Holdings”), Alcor Acquisition Inc., Alcor Acquisition LLC (“Alcor Acquisition”) and Alcor Acquisition L.P. (“Alcor LP”), MeriStar merged with and into Alcor Acquisition, a wholly owned subsidiary of Alcor Holdings (the “Merger”), with Alcor LLC being the surviving entity, and Alcor LP, whose general partner is an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Alcor Holdings, merged with and into MeriStar Operating Partnership, with MeriStar Operating Partnership being the surviving entity. Alcor Holdings, Alcor Acquisition Inc., Alcor Acquisition and Alcor LP are affiliates of The Blackstone Group. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, each share of MeriStar common stock outstanding at the effective time of the Merger was automatically converted into the right to receive $10.45 in cash, without interest, less any withholding taxes.

As a result of the Merger, there is no longer any common stock of MeriStar outstanding and MeriStar will be deregistering all of its securities. Therefore, MeriStar hereby removes from registration all securities of MeriStar registered pursuant to this Registration Statement that remain unissued.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 478 thereunder, the Registrant has duly caused this Post-Effective Amendment to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of New York, State of New York, on May 2, 2006.
