HATS-26 is a star 2810 light-years away with an F-type spectral classification, placing it among the hotter, more massive stellar classes. Its mass is 1.3 solar masses and its radius is 2.04 solar radii, both larger than the Sun's corresponding values. The star's temperature is 6070 K, hotter than the Sun, and its age is 4.04 billion years.
One planet orbits this host. HATS-26 b is a Jupiter-like planet discovered by the transit method in 2016, when it passed in front of its star from our viewpoint and caused a small dip in observed brightness. Its orbital period is 3.3 days. The planet's radius is 19.6 Earth radii and its mass is 207 Earth masses, both larger than Earth's. Its mean density is 0.151 g/cm³, which is 0.0274 times Earth's.
