I've swiched most of my stays to Hilton. Under the current promos, you can become Gold in as little as 4 stays and get 50,000 points to boot! Moreover, they now have both a NO FEE AMEX and a NO FEE VISA. The first earns you a 5 point/3 point split and the latter a 3 point/2 point split. That is far better than Marriott's 3point/1 poiint split on CC charges and you don't have to pay an annual fee!
