On Hilton.com I was trying to find out the point cost for a 3 night vrs a 4 night stay.

I could only find the Standard Hotel Award matrix which lists only the points required for a one night stay at X category hotel.

Is there not a "point break" anymore for awards consisting of 2,3,4 etc nights?

No. Now it's just whatever one night costs times the number of nights.

Ah yes this is where the changes in the Hilton program most affect me at least forget the ALON/GLON whatever, the 3 and 4 night awards are what I use most.

Besides it does not appear we will be able to use the old VIP discounts against these since it seeem to be all one night rewards (though a probably mis-informed CSR told me otherwise)

Perhaps Eugene can bring this up with Adam Burke the next time you guys communicate.

No difference for weekend and weekday either I think like before.

You have to hope for a point stretcher availability.

In this sense, the VIP awards are still deal in some cases.

Actually it just occcured to me that if I have a 4 day stay I might better off using a GLON2 or GLONP2 and using the discount certs and forfeiting 2 days stay 1 will be 5k or 10k to the good.
I still have 10 of the VIP 10ks, it would take me a long time to claim 5 six day awards under normal circumstances.

P.S.unless I swap say 4 one day certs for 1 GlON2 with some Ftalker which be beneficial to both of us.
