I will never go out of my way to stay to stay at a Hilton property anymore. Personally, if I got an upgrade or something that recognized me as a Diamond I wouldn't feel se bitter, but I'm treated as a King at Sheraton and just another guest at Hilton.....

The only thing that even keeps me at Hilton is when I am in the middle of Nowhere,USA there is always a Hampton inn......
i presume you mean spg platinum....also, when you say you never got an upgrade at a hilton property, do you mean you never got upgraded to a suite or that you never got upgraded to the next category room????
