HOSR is proud to partner with HBC Event Services, a housing agency with a nationwide reputation for excellence in managing travel for sports events.  HBC Event Services provides an easy way for you to book your hotel rooms with our partnered hotels at the best rates. These rates are always lower than their best available rate online.  Please call HBC Event Services at (505) 346-0522 and/or [email protected] if you have any questions and/or have any special hotel requests.  HBC is dedicated to making the accommodations process seamless for all parties of all sizes.

 

RESERVE HOTEL ROOMS

We hope that you will take advantage of the special event pricing and make all hotel accommodations using HBC housing services.  Booking through HBC provides HOSR with the ability to count, and relay to our supporters, the number of hotel rooms brought to the City and surrounding area.  When rooms are booked directly through the hotels, we cannot get an accurate count.
