I defected from Marriott partly because my (very large) company dumped Marriott as a preferred hotel making it difficult to stay there. Starwood and Hilton are both preferred now, so I have made Platinum at Starwood and now stay at Hilton, with a smattering of Holiday Inns (so far so good) in the areas where I don't have access to either.</font>
Ditto... we are no longer allowed to book Marriott - so I moved to Hilton and have been happy happy .. however I am still happily using my MR points - just cashed in a couple of 100K for a nice trip next spring...
