Hello! I am staying in Hilton Pleasanton (California) for the next 3 weeks at a corporate rate, and I was able to get a mini fridge complementary as well as free breakfast buffet (corporate perks). I was wondering if there are other complementary things that I can get for staying a long time.

I asked for an upgrade and the reps told me to ask again in a few days, which I will. Has anyone received anything else for long term stay? (free dinners, etc).

Lastly, I couldn't find any "fast-tract" to diamond threads. Is there such a thing? Thanks all!

Nothing that I am aware of but I am a noobie in this arena. You might be able to score some free drink chits if the hotel has a full bar and that usually depends on the Brand (Embassy vs. Homewood Suites).

I recently did 6 weeks at the same Homewood Suites but checked out every Friday and returned on Sunday. Eventually I moved from Blue to Silver during the course of my stay, (after the website caught up!) which does not get you a whole lot at Homewood Suites - however upon arriving on the 5th Sunday the Front Desk Manager did give me a complimentary bottle of red wine - nothing too expensive but not a cheap one either - maybe $18 -$22 retail (before hotel markup) - not aimed at me specifically though - she was doing that for several repeat customers with elite status.

As to Diamond fast-track I think you have to get it the old-fashioned way - earn it ( as EF Hutton used to say ).

On the upside - there are worse places to be stuck for 3 wks straight ! And you will walk out with Silver status - and a mere 15 nights away from Gold.

You can sign up for the Gold MVP challenge and you will be gold after 4 stays or nine nights. https://www.hiltonhhonors.com/landingpages/mvp.aspx

The MVP will give you gold after 4 stays are nine nights.

How do I receive a confirmation of my MVP registration online?

I have an upcoming 12 night stay at a HGI, and wanted to be certain that my registration for the Gold MVP Challenge is linked to my HHonors account.

I didn't get an email confirmation. :confused:
