LA QUINTA INN & SUITES
La Quinta Inn & Suites franchises operate high-quality, mid-priced, limited-service guest lodging facilities offering overnight accommodations, complimentary breakfast, fitness centers, swimming pools, and amenities like Bright Side Market. Franchisees construct and operate standardized hotels (typically 100-110 rooms) under the La Quinta by Wyndham brand, adhering to specific designs, standards, and systems provided by the franchisor. The target market includes business and leisure travelers in the competitive upper mid-market segment of the hospitality industry.

5.5% royalty (increasing to 6% after 24 months) + 3.5% system assessment + $2,300-$3,000/mo fixed (PMS $734-$1,450, remote sales $1,400, MOP $66 for 110 rooms, continuing education $100).
Financial Performance
Item 19 Financial Performance
Data Based On: 377 Qualified Chain Facilities in the United States and Canada for the period from January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024, that opened before January 1, 2023 and achieved a 'Comparable Social Review Score'. All facilities in Item 19 were operated by franchisees.
* The document provides financial performance representations related to Average Daily Room Rate (ADR), Occupancy Rate, and Revenue Per Available Room (RevPAR). RevPAR is defined as 'gross room revenue per available room' and is presented with average values of $78.27 (for Qualified Chain Facilities) and $81.21 (for Del Sol Prototype B Facilities). These are per-room metrics and do not represent the 'average gross revenue per franchise unit' as typically expected (which falls in the $100K - $10M range). The document also provides 'Central Reservation System Contribution' and 'Wyndham Rewards Contribution' as percentages, not absolute dollar amounts of revenue or profit. No data was found for total gross revenue per franchise unit, median gross revenue, revenue quartiles, net income, net profit, EBITDA, or any expense information that would allow for profit estimations.
