Exhibit 99.1

RFS REPORTS SECOND QUARTER RESULTS

        Memphis, Tennessee, August 1, 2002—RFS Hotel Investors, Inc. (NYSE: RFS) today announced funds from operations (FFO) for the second quarter 2002 of $11.4 million, or $0.38 per share, compared to $16.9 million, or $0.62 per share, for the same quarter a year ago. FFO for the six months ended June 30, 2002, was $19.2 million, or $0.66 per share, compared to 2001 FFO of $31.9 million or $1.16 per share. Operating results were in line with reduced guidance given by the Company on June 27, 2002.

Second Quarter Highlights

    Hotel revenue per available room (RevPAR) declined 10.6% for the second quarter. The following represents changes in RevPAR as compared to the prior year comparable periods by market segment:

 
  RevPAR Change
 
 
  Quarter
  Year to Date
 
Full Service   (16.6 %) (22.0 %)
Extended Stay   (6.5 %) (6.9 %)
Limited Service   (5.9 %) (7.5 %)
   
 
 
  Total   (10.6 %) (13.5 %)
    The Company's six hotels in northern California, consisting of two in San Francisco and four in Silicon Valley, experienced an average decline in quarterly RevPAR of 27.9%. These six northern California hotels represented 18.4% of RFS's earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) for the quarter as compared to 23% for all of 2001. Exclusive of these six northern California hotels, RevPAR declined 5.5% for the quarter and 7.8% year to date.

    Hotel operating margins (hotel EBITDA as a percentage of total revenue, excluding deferred revenue) declined 4.0 percentage points to 38% in the second quarter. For the six months, hotel operating margins declined 5.4 percentage points to 36.1%.

    EBITDA declined 21.1% from $24.6 million to $19.4 million for the second quarter and decreased 27.1% year to date.

    The Company realized an unleveraged FFO return on investment of 9.0% on its hotel portfolio for the trailing twelve months ended June 30, 2002. Based upon the Company's approximate 36% leverage and average borrowing costs of 8.2%, the Company realized a leveraged return on investment of 9.5%.

    EBITDA for the trailing twelve months ended June 30, 2002, was 2.8 times the Company's interest costs.

    Total debt, net of cash, was reduced by $11.1 million in the first two quarters.

    During the quarter, RFS completed the sale of 2.0 million shares of common stock resulting in net proceeds of $24.6 million. These funds were utilized, on June 30, 2002, to repurchase all of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock which paid an annual dividend at a rate of 12.5%. Although the transaction reduced FFO per share by $0.01 in the second quarter, it is expected to be neutral to FFO per share for the full year.

Operating Results

        Randy Churchey, president and chief operating officer, said, "As expected, the industry has experienced a significant downturn in business travel which began in the spring of 2001 and was exacerbated by the events of September 11. During the quarter, we experienced some improvement in the San Francisco market due to an increase in the number of leisure travelers. However, RevPAR at



our four hotels in and around Silicon Valley was down 32.7% compared to a decline of 36.6% during the first quarter.

        RevPAR for the entire portfolio declined 10.6% indicating some sequential improvement from the first quarter results which reflected a decrease of 16.6%. We began to experience quarterly declines in RevPAR during the third quarter of 2001 and RevPAR for the second quarter of 2001 was unchanged from the prior year. Therefore, quarterly RevPAR comparisons should improve over the balance of the year."

Capital

        Despite the reduction in FFO and RevPAR, the Company:

    Continued to maintain one of the least leveraged balance sheets in the industry with total debt equal to only 4.3 times trailing twelve months EBITDA;

    Generated operating cash flow (EBITDA less interest) of $44.4 million for the trailing twelve months ended June 30, 2002. This represents funds available for capital expenditures, debt reduction, and dividends; and

    Reduced net debt by $11.1 million during the first half of the year.

        Kevin Luebbers, RFS executive vice president and chief financial officer, stated, "The repurchase of $25 million in preferred stock with the proceeds of our recent common stock offering reduces our aggregate dividends by $1.1 million and eliminates the required future redemption of the Series B Preferred Stock. This transaction, together with our successful sales of $125 million in unsecured senior notes and 1.15 million shares of common stock in the first quarter, positions us with in excess of $100 million of available capital to withstand this difficult operating environment and to opportunistically acquire hotels which meet our strategic and financial criteria."

Outlook and Dividends

        The Company declared a dividend of $0.25 per share, payable September 16, 2002, to shareholders of record September 6, 2002. RFS expects to pay an annual dividend in 2002 of $1.00 per share. Based upon preliminary estimates, approximately 75% of the dividend is expected, for tax purposes, to be characterized as a return of capital, and; therefore, not taxable as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes.

        Robert Solmson, chairman and chief executive officer, stated, "It has been, and continues to be, extremely difficult to predict lodging demand in the current economic environment. In recent months, the U.S. economy has shown renewed growth following last year's recession. Recently, we have seen improving RevPAR trends for our hotels, and we expect this trend to continue. Our best estimate is that RevPAR growth, year over year, during the second half of 2002 will be consistent with industry forecasts of 2% to 6% and that FFO per share for 2002 will range from $1.35 to $1.40.

        Fortunately, the Company's balance sheet remains strong with total debt equal to only 36% of the costs of our assets, no significant debt maturities until 2008, and operating cash flow (EBITDA less interest expense) for the trailing 12 months of $44.4 million. This combination of low leverage and strong cash flows enables the Company to pay meaningful dividends to our shareholders during this difficult operating environment. Management will continue to do everything in its power to: protect the dividend; maintain low levels of debt; and, maximize return on investment."

        The Company also announced that, effective in 2003, it would include in compensation the expense associated with the fair value of stock option grants made subsequent to January 1, 2003. The impact of this change in accounting policy, if adopted in prior years, would have increased annual compensation costs by approximately $.01 per share on an annual basis.

Total investment includes original cost and all capital expenditures since acquisition. Also includes the costs associated with the Hilton lease termination of approximately $60 million. These costs were required to be written-off as a cancellation of executory contracts and therefore are not included on the balance sheet. However, for return on investment analysis, this amount is included in the total investment.

(3)
$294.8 million at an average annual rate of 8.2% (weighted average cost of debt at June 30, 2002).
