Every big chain has had similar "enhancements".

Hilton's not dead to me: just frustrating that the big devaluations followed by big promos make me keep re-doing the math. Now my baseline is earning 50-60 points per dollar...the whole thing is beginning to feel a bit IHG-ish to me.
Marriott and Starwood keep the level of their "currency" a bit more stable, but that alone doesn't make them a better or worse program. Kind of depends on what you're after... If you earn HH now, be prepared to spend it now.

Several months back but not sure of exact date. I pretty much just use my HH points at some of there lower level properties when I am on the road. Forget the higher end stuff, way too many points to get very little. I was recently in downtown Boston and burned some but it was crazy high. However when I stayed at the HGI in Devon MA I felt like I was at least getting a bit of a "deal".

Happened within past week or so. Standard Reward doubled at a hotel I stayed and was planning to book again. I guess Hilton doesn`t think it has to announce any devaluation since there is no more categories? Not cool.
No more 5K points hotels, all starts with 10K now.

This is why there is no incentive whatsoever to save up points and why I redeem on a regular basis
On a different note, its been years since I have seen a 5K here in the US or eve 10K, now 20K is the lowest I see

From HH Rep on FT: "But you can rest assured about the value of your Points." Not true at all.
