What we Do
Hotel Accommodations for Collegiate & Club Athletic Teams
Southwest Host Services was established to create mutually beneficial relationships between
athletic programs and the hotel industry. Our goal is to sustain long term relationships by satisfying
the time restraints and budgetary restrictions of our teams, while creating group volume for our hotels.

“Southwest Host Services has been a tremendous asset to our athletic department for the last four years.  The staff is always courteous and knowledgeable about the properties they recommend."

"We have tried a couple other companies who offer similar services, but we have found Southwest Host to be our MVP.  And for a program such as ours, who doesn’t have a travel agent on staff handling these responsibilities, the security of knowing we are going to have properties that will provide a first class experience for our student-athletes makes all our jobs easier.”

By continually integrating the suggestions of our athletic clients and member hotels, our program has evolved to exceed team travel requirements and fall within recruiting budgets while strengthening business relationships with our partnered hotels.

Our Program
Team Services
Within each travel market, competitive guestroom rates are established for our clients.  These rates are combined with value added amenities to create an attractive package for athletic travel.

These amenities include:

  • A complimentary room for the head coach with a minimum of five paid rooms
  • Complimentary space for team meetings and meals
  • Pre-game meals to specifications
  • Late check-outs requested when necessary
  • Hotels familiar with the special needs of traveling teams
  • Secluded room block within the hotel whenever possible

Recruiting Benefits
By taking advantage of our team travel services, your coaching staff earns recruiting privileges from Southwest Host Services.  Deeply discounted rates are offered to the entire staff at our more than 2,200 partnered hotels nationwide.  These rates are for
scouting and recruiting purposes only.   We offer a dedicated recruiting coordinator solely
for the purpose of placing these reservations.

Schools can minimize their travel expenses while maximizing the number of new recruits to pursue. 
With any team only as good as their players, coaches view these savings as extremely beneficial.

Because Southwest Host Services provides the highest level of quality service, coaches have become
very loyal to the company and our member hotels.  We understand that people do business with
those they know and like.

We look forward to serving you and welcoming you to our Southwest Host Services family. 
We can accommodate team travel requests nationwide or world wide.
