What This Means (2025 FDD)

According to the 2025 Embassy Suites Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchise application must be completed online through the Hilton Application Tracker (HAT) internet portal. The FDD notes that the online version may appear in a different format than a paper application.

Prospective Embassy Suites franchisees should be aware that Hilton may update or modify the application at any time. While the primary method is online, Hilton may provide a paper application as an alternative.

This instruction applies generally to all applicants, and the FDD excerpt does not specify any different procedures or portals for Embassy Suites franchise applications in Puerto Rico versus any other location. Therefore, the standard Hilton Application Tracker (HAT) portal is expected to be used for applications in Puerto Rico as well.
