I'll bet they will waive the rule on a one-time basis. 250 nights shows a lot of loyalty, which Hilton should eagerly reciprocate. Write a polite and friendly letter to the highest level person at HHonors you can find. Your letter should have the tone of presuming that they can and will help you; it's simply good business.
