Hotel point valuation really is individualized to one's own travel patterns, much more than airline miles. The variation in types of hotels and rooms is so great. A program's value depends on how it meets your needs for hotel rooms.

I agree with this reasoning. Similar thread from last year is:

For me, Marriott seemed to provide more rewards for revenue dollar, but they would not comp me to their top status.

I was comped to SPG Platinum, but have been very disappointed. Hyatt has provided good reward value, and the Faster Free Nights program has made it an obvious choice if you are looking for free nights.

But when you consider the FFN program, I don't think anybody else comes close.
