I was looking for options to use points at Marriott hotels and they are only allowing lower tier high availability options. Even though $ per night is same at other hotels the points for one night is double or more. Are you exploring any other chains for stay ?? Marriott is not the Starwood anymore … what is the feedback from Hilton and other chains ?

Getting back on travel saddle (2-3 weeks a month for 2022) and have a choice between Hilton and Marriott for stay. I have platinum or equivalent status in both and wanted to know which one gives you more benefits, points worthy of booking travel etc.? TIA

Looking for advice — new to travel: Hilton or Marriott?

>I have a Platinum Amex.

>Currently have around ~30k Hilton points, 3 nights stayed, and gold status (through credit card).

>I have ~2k Marriott points, 0 nights stayed, and gold elite status (also through credit card). I have no plans to get a new credit card.

>I use Uber not Lyft (and thus get Marriott points from ground transportation, not Hilton)
