The vendor opportunity at Dolce Hotels and Resorts by Wyndham Dolce Hotels and Resorts by Wyndham franchises 4 hotels under its 2026 FDD, with unit count up 100% year over year off a small base.

Who controls software purchasing Item 2 names Geoff Ballotti as President and Chief Executive Officer, Paul F. Cash as General Counsel, Nicola Rossi as Chief Accounting Officer, Amit Sripathi as Chief Financial Officer, and Shilpan Patel as Executive Vice President of North America Franchise Operations — the same Wyndham corporate team that runs the brand's other hotel flags.

Questions vendors ask

Dolce Hotels and Resorts by Wyndham, answered from the filing

Geoff Ballotti is President and Chief Executive Officer of Wyndham, with Amit Sripathi as Chief Financial Officer and Shilpan Patel as Executive Vice President of North America Franchise Operations. The mandated Oracle, Elavon and RevIQ systems confirm purchasing runs through Wyndham corporate, not the individual hotel.
Items 5 and 11 require Oracle, Oracle OPERA by Oracle, Elavon and RevIQ. Medallia is in use per Item 6, and STR by CoStar, SynXis by Sabre Hospitality and TripAdvisor are named without being required.
4 franchised hotels as of the 2026 FDD, up 100% year over year, inside Wyndham's broader lodging portfolio.
An approved-supplier list under Item 8: certain items must come from Approved Suppliers, including call center services for reservations, which must be sourced from Wyndham or an affiliate. Other purchases can come from any party meeting standards, with room to propose alternatives.
The initial term runs 20 years, and unit count doubled year over year — new-build openings, not renewals, are the more frequent point of entry for a vendor given the mandated Oracle OPERA and RevIQ systems already locked in at signing.
The 2026 FDD was filed with state franchise regulators. The embedded PDF viewer below covers Items 2, 5, 6, 8 and 11 in full.
