Now that it is after check-out, however, you could call or email the manager of the hotel and request some form of compensation. I have found that managers may ignore your call or will tell you that you should have complained when you were at the hotel. Good luck.
We had a similar problem at an HGI in Omaha last fall -- they got hit with a snow storm and all the TV reception in the hotel went out -- so we couldn't get the weather channel and a decent forecast.
Turns out they use Direct TV.
I didn't bother to complain, but guess what service we've decided to not use at home.
A real lose lose situation -- we lost TV service for a few hours, they'll (not Hilton!) never get us as a customer.
