There's an award chart somewhere. I'd say that the Hilton points are generally inflated (as someone who is relatively new to the program)

I was looking at hotels near Times Square (I'm guessing those are considered premium hotels), and they're in the 50k range. So that translates into only one night. When I look elsewhere, there are redemption for 30k for an average hotel, so it's probably fair to say the 60k will go for one or two night depending on how you use it.

I can see why Starpoints and its points + cash option is so much better. You earn more per dollar spend with the Hilton card, but Hilton point redemption is inflated! I'm still new to the Hilton points program, but that's my impression thus far.
