About

Wyndham Hotels & Resorts is the world's largest hotel franchising company by number of properties, headquartered in Parsippany, New Jersey. Spun off from Wyndham Worldwide in 2018, the company owns 24 hotel brands—including Days Inn, Super 8, La Quinta, Ramada, Travelodge, and Wyndham Grand—spanning economy to upper-midscale segments. Its franchise-first model spans over 95 countries with a development pipeline approaching 260,000 rooms.\n\nWyndham's Wyndham Rewards loyalty program has approximately 110 million enrolled members. The company focuses heavily on independent hotel conversions, leveraging its Trademark Collection and ECHO Suites brands to capture midscale demand with lower conversion costs. Its economy and midscale positioning makes it resilient to consumer trade-down cycles.\n\nWyndham reported FY2025 revenues of $1.44B, slightly up from $1.41B in 2024. The company achieved a record 72,000 new room openings in 2025, pushing its global development pipeline to a record 259,000 rooms (+3% YoY). While global RevPAR dipped 3% YoY due to U.S. softness, international markets remained flat and the company maintained strong franchisee unit economics.

About

Hilton is one of the world's largest and most recognized hospitality companies, founded in 1919 by Conrad Hilton in Cisco, Texas, and headquartered today in McLean, Virginia. Built on a century of hotel operations, Hilton's core business model has evolved from direct hotel ownership to a capital-light franchise and management model that earns fees on rooms operated under its brand portfolio rather than owning the underlying real estate. This asset-light structure generates high-margin, recurring revenue while enabling rapid global expansion with franchisee capital.\n\nHilton's portfolio spans 22 distinct brands across the full spectrum of lodging — from the flagship Hilton Hotels & Resorts and luxury Conrad and Waldorf Astoria brands to the extended-stay Homewood Suites and budget-friendly Hampton Inn. The company operates or franchises more than 7,600 properties worldwide, supported by the Hilton Honors loyalty program, which drives direct booking and customer retention across the portfolio. In 2024, Hilton opened 98,400 rooms — among its highest annual openings — growing its net system size by 7.3% and expanding its pipeline for continued fee growth.\n\nHilton reported FY2024 revenue of $11.174 billion, a 9.17% year-over-year increase, with RevPAR growth of 2.7% reflecting healthy leisure and business travel demand. As global travel volumes continue recovering and business travel normalizes post-pandemic, Hilton's combination of brand breadth, loyalty program scale, and a robust development pipeline positions it for sustained fee income growth. Its capital-light model translates network expansion into margin-accretive earnings without the balance sheet risk of direct real estate ownership.
