Hilton HHonors - Dangerously close to defecting to Marriott...
I love HH but after heavy stays at the Marriott's RIs...i am on the verge of defecting to Marriott eventhough I know that the their reward program is no where near HH's...but i have lost at least 5-10 lbs staying at RIs because I bought healthy food at the local grocery stores and I exercised more often....however...i don't think i will be having a hard time earning at Gold on HH next year...as I am close to Diamond with Mariott now...
Please Hilton build more HSs!

He is referring to getting Diamond at Hilton versus Platinum at Marriott. In addition to Homewood Suites don't forget that Hilton has several hundred Embassy Suites.

Don't forget the ever popular Mahwah, NJ. My home away from home!

Oh yeah! No DOUBLE DIPPING...that would make me go to Marriott http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/frown.gif
Embassy Suites are not allowed by our company's travel policy. Like i said before, I'll keep staying at Hilton properties, but my main focus will be the Marriot's RIs come next year. Unless I can stay at HSs everytime http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

I think this is a nice valid timely reason to sell any old Hilton stock I have. Thanks for the heads-up afang.
