Does the Even Hotels license agreement grant any options to acquire additional licenses?

According to Even Hotels' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the license agreement does not grant franchisees any options, rights of first refusal, or other rights to acquire additional licenses. This means that if a franchisee wishes to open another Even Hotels location, they will need to negotiate a new license agreement with Holiday, the licensor.

This policy allows Holiday to maintain control over the growth and distribution of the Even Hotels brand. It also means that existing franchisees do not have a guaranteed opportunity to expand their business within a specific territory.

For a prospective franchisee, this implies that building a multi-unit operation is not automatically granted and depends on the franchisor's approval for each new location. A franchisee should discuss with Holiday their long-term expansion goals and the criteria Holiday uses when awarding additional licenses.
