Beware of Hotel Service Providers not Affiliated with Imprinted Sportswear Shows
It has come to our attention that several exhibitors, attendees and members have been contacted by housing vendors who are offering to provide room nights and hotel services at ISS. While these companies may have secured blocks of rooms at various hotels in and around Long Beach, they are not the official housing provider for the Event.

ISS has again contracted with Ambassadors to be the sole housing company for ISS. It is important to note that our participating hotels are contractually obligated to accept room night commitments as it pertains to ISS only from Ambassadors. Booking through the official housing company has a wide range of benefits. Securing accommodations through the official room block ensures the most competitive rates throughout ISS, access to official ISS shuttle bus transportation, and added protection from "walks" in an oversold situation.

Please be aware that securing rooms with any company other than ISS’s official housing bureau, Ambassadors, is at your own risk. There have been many instances in the past when similar companies have gone out of business after taking the reservation and deposit, leaving individuals without hotel rooms and lost deposits.

If you have any questions about the hotels or the process, please contact the ISS housing company at Ambassadors. They may be reached at (800) 722-0509 or via email at iss@ambassadors.com.
