What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Embassy Suites's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the tables in Item 20 provide data on the number of hotels reacquired by the franchisor in various states. Specifically, the tables list the number of hotels at the start and end of each year, along with changes due to openings, terminations, non-renewals, re acquisitions by the franchisor, and other reasons for ceased operations. These tables cover the years 2022, 2023, and 2024.
Across all the listed states (Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, and North Carolina), the number of Embassy Suites hotels reacquired by the franchisor in 2022 was zero. This indicates that Embassy Suites did not buy back any franchised locations during that year in these states.
Prospective franchisees can use this information to understand the stability of the Embassy Suites franchise network. A high number of re acquisitions might suggest financial or operational challenges within the franchise system, while a low number, as seen here, could indicate a stable and well-managed franchise system. Franchisees should, however, investigate the reasons behind re acquisitions in other years, should they occur, to fully assess the health and management of the franchise.
