Why does everyone hate on the Hilton loyalty program? Considering they are always offering double or triple points I think it's a better option than Marriott

Try redeeming something...the point values blow

like

I think redemption value is great since you earn so many with all the bonuses, plus their Amex cc is 12x points when spent on Hilton, so if your firm lets you pay hotel on card of choice it’s easily worth it.

Not at all properties C1. I've had it happen in NYC and a few others.

OP fair enough, then it's an NYC problem? That city is dense but I think it can find a place to store some damn water

Hilton requires those bonus to be closer to par with the other programs.

I think even without the CC it's a good program as long as they always offer double or triple points. The Marriott promotions are always terrible (ie free night at a cat 5)

Hilton also doesn't even give you guaranteed free water bottles in your room with their highest status. Their perks while staying with them are pretty lousy.

K1 - they give you water bottles at check in. Your statement is false.

It's pesos for redemption, when Marriott is dollars and SPG bitcoin.

K1 - I've had it happen at spg properties in NYC too... Not just Hilton

Does anyone have a preferred car service company? I am looking for a service that can consistently provide traveler alerts such as when car has arrived, passenger is on board, trip competed, etc. across US cities. I have found a company that will do this when I book travel in NYC, but when my Professionals arrive in their destination cities the affiliates do not offer this same feature. Any suggestions? Thank you!
