ROI & LBO modelsSingle-unit · 25-unit portfolio · editable
Arise Suites Extended Stay by Wyndham makes no financial performance representation in Item 19 of its FDD - a voluntary item under the FTC Franchise Rule - so no unit revenue figures are disclosed. The return models need a revenue figure to start from, and the operating costs that turn gross sales into a profit are in no FDD. Enter your own and the calculator runs on your assumptions — nothing here is modelled until you do.

Frequently asked questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to open a Arise Suites Extended Stay by Wyndham franchise?
The total investment to open a Arise Suites Extended Stay by Wyndham franchise ranges from $304K – $1.4M, with an initial franchise fee of $25K. This includes real estate, equipment, inventory, and working capital as disclosed in their Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD).
What do Arise Suites Extended Stay by Wyndham franchise owners earn?
Arise Suites Extended Stay by Wyndham makes no financial performance representation in Item 19 of its FDD - a voluntary item under the FTC Franchise Rule - so no unit revenue figures are disclosed. Declining to publish one is lawful and is not evidence of how the outlets perform. It does mean that less about this brand can be verified from its filing, and the FranchiseVerdict grade - an editorial assessment, not investment advice - reflects that. Item 20 of the FDD lists current and former franchisees; asking them directly is the standard way to fill this gap.
Who owns Arise Suites Extended Stay by Wyndham?
Arise Suites Extended Stay by Wyndham is franchised by WHR Extended Stay, LLC. Its parent company is Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, Inc. (WHR). The ultimate parent named in the FDD is Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, Inc.. Source: FDD Item 1, 2024 filing.
What is Item 19 in the Arise Suites Extended Stay by Wyndham FDD?
The FDD section where a franchisor may disclose financial performance of its outlets. Disclosure is optional and formats vary; figures are typically gross sales, which is revenue before expenses, not profit. FranchiseVerdict extracts these figures directly from the Arise Suites Extended Stay by Wyndham FDD and qualifies whose outlets they describe.
What is Arise Suites Extended Stay by Wyndham's franchise failure rate?
SBA 7(a) loan charge-off data is not available for Arise Suites Extended Stay by Wyndham (fewer than 10 loans on file). Charge-off rates are one way to gauge franchise risk, but not all franchise loans go through the SBA program. We recommend reviewing turnover and closure data in the FDD and speaking with current franchisees.
Is Arise Suites Extended Stay by Wyndham a good franchise to buy?
FranchiseVerdict rates Arise Suites Extended Stay by Wyndham as a C-grade franchise with a verdict score of 39 out of 100 (higher is better). The grade is a deterministic score built from six weighted dimensions — financial health, unit economics, unit growth, scale, legal, and transparency — then calibrated against SBA loan charge-off rates and FDD age. Transparency is one of the six, so a filing that discloses less scores lower on that dimension than one that discloses more. Our rating is based solely on publicly available FDD and government data; we recommend speaking with current franchisees before making any investment decision. This is not investment advice.
