What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Embassy Suites By Hilton's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, there were 3 Embassy Suites By Hilton hotels operating in Minnesota at the start of 2024. The provided table in Item 20 of the FDD details the number of hotels at the start of the year, hotels opened, terminations, non-renewals, hotels reacquired by the franchisor, hotels that ceased operations for other reasons, and the number of hotels at the end of the year for each state. This information is presented for the years 2022, 2023, and 2024.
For a prospective franchisee, this data indicates the stability and growth (or decline) of the Embassy Suites By Hilton brand in specific states. The fact that Minnesota maintained a consistent number of hotels over the three years suggests a stable market presence. This information can be valuable in assessing the market conditions and potential for success in a particular state.
It's important to note that the table provides a snapshot of hotel counts at the beginning and end of each year, as well as changes that occurred during the year. Reviewing this data over several years can reveal trends in the brand's expansion or contraction within a state, which can inform a franchisee's decision-making process. Additionally, the FDD includes information regarding transfers of franchised hotels to new owners, which could provide further insight into the franchise network's dynamics.
