    Outlet Changes — Item 20

    How has the outlet count changed?

    Systemwide: United States and Canada, as labeled in the FDD · counts as of 2025 of each year.

    2026 FDD · Item 20 · PDF p. 125

    Net −9 outlets, 2023–2025

    0153202314720241442025−6−3

    Year-end counts reported in Item 20. The scale starts at zero, so the line looks nearly flat; the labels between the dots show each year's change. Openings and closures for 2025 haven't been pulled from the Item 20 tables yet, so no turnover or churn is shown.

    Questions to investigate

    Prompts based on what this brand's reviewed disclosures do and don't show — not conclusions. Join free as a member to save questions to your research.

    For the franchisor

    • Which line items in the 2026 Item 7 estimate ($13,280,910 – $38,170,510) vary most by market, and why?

    • Which initial fee option would apply to my situation, and what conditions or discounts affect it?

    • Which locations are included in the Item 19 figures, and which were excluded?

    • Reported units decreased from 147 to 144 in 2025. What drove the change?

    • Is a territory available in my area, and how is it defined in my agreement?

    For current and former owners

    • How did your actual startup costs and timeline compare with the Item 7 estimate?

    • How many hours a week do you work in the business, and in what role?

    • How do your results compare with the Item 19 figures, and what explains the difference?

    • What support from the franchisor has been most and least useful?

    For your advisors

    • Ask a franchise attorney to review the territory, renewal, transfer and termination terms.

    • Ask an accountant to build a cash-flow plan using your own assumptions, not the franchisor's.

      Our summary: Included loyalty occupancy — Mean loyalty occupancy contribution

      “Average Marriott Bonvoy Contribution to 2025 Room Nights and Occupancy Average Number of Member Room Nights per Hotel 18,000 Average Annual Loyalty Program Contribution to Occupancy 54.9% Of the 134 Included Hotels, 56 hotels or 42.1% met or exceeded the average number of member room nights per hotel of 18,000; and 69 hotels or 51.9% met or exceeded the average loyalty program contribution to occupancy of 54.9%.

      Note: The page reports 54.9% annual loyalty-program contribution to occupancy, but its surrounding text conflicts on whether redeemed room nights are included. The FDD does not settle the methodology for this value.
