Dallas is the center of the FIFA World Cup 2026 universe
Dallas–Fort Worth is hosting 9 FIFA World Cup 2026 matches — including a semifinal — across a five-week window from June through July 2026. AT&T Stadium in Arlington will be one of the most-watched venues on earth during that stretch, drawing broadcast networks, production companies, security firms, logistics contractors, transportation crews, and thousands of support personnel who need quality housing — not just for a night, but for weeks.
If you're managing crew accommodations for a contractor, broadcaster, or production team working the tournament, here is what you need to know: downtown Arlington and Irving hotels will be fully committed at peak rates by the time bid deadlines arrive. The crews and companies that plan now will get better rooms, more space, and rates that don't blow the housing budget.
Kriya Hotels operates six properties across the DFW market. We are owner-operators — not a booking platform, not a management company. One call gets your entire crew housed across a portfolio of Hilton and Marriott branded properties, with a dedicated account manager from contract to checkout.

Who we serve: contractors, crews, and production teams
Kriya Hotels is actively working with companies contracted to FIFA, C3 Presents (the official operations contractor for the Dallas host committee), broadcast networks, and the full range of support organizations that make a tournament of this scale function.
Our extended-stay properties — particularly the three Home2 Suites locations — are built for multi-week deployments. They are not standard hotel rooms. They have full kitchens, separate living spaces, guest washer/dryer, and the infrastructure that keeps a working crew productive across a long assignment.
The types of organizations we're targeting for group blocks include:
- Broadcast and media production crews — camera operators, production assistants, technical directors, satellite uplink teams
- Security contractors — crowd management, credentialing, perimeter security
- Logistics and transportation companies — fleet operators, shuttle contractors, equipment logistics
- Hospitality and venue operations staff
- Telecommunications and IT infrastructure teams
- Event staffing and staging companies
- Medical and emergency services contractors
If your team is assigned to the Dallas market for FIFA 2026, we want to talk before your rooms are gone.

Why Kriya Hotels for FIFA 2026 group blocks
We are owner-operators, not a management company. Kriya Hotels has owned and operated DFW properties since 2004. When you call us, you reach decision-makers — not a call center or a franchisee with limited authority. Group rate decisions, block adjustments, and contract modifications happen fast because we control these properties directly.
Three extended-stay properties with full kitchens. Multi-week crew deployments are not the same as one-night corporate travel. Our Home2 Suites locations have refrigerators, stovetops, dishwashers, and cookware — so your crew can manage their own meals across a three-to-six-week assignment.
A single account manager for all six properties. We do not split your group across siloed booking channels. One contact manages your block across the entire portfolio — room assignments, billing consolidation, attrition questions, and any issues that come up during the stay.
4.5+ average rating across the portfolio. We maintain consistently high ratings on TripAdvisor, Google, and the Hilton and Marriott guest satisfaction platforms.
Free parking at every property. No garage fees, no valet charges. Ample surface parking at all six locations, including space for crew vehicles and equipment trailers.
Complimentary hot breakfast at Hilton-branded properties. Full hot breakfast is included at all four Hilton properties — one less logistical headache for crews with early call times.
