Their low category properties don't interest me at all
I actually consider Hilton HHonors who routinely features doule point bonuses that add up to 20 plus points per dollar when adding promotions and credit card partners earning 10 points per dollar just using the new Hilton Visa by Citi Bank.For those who also carry the HH American Express for free with no annual fee
there are whopping discounts if you stay 4 nights.Much less than Hyatt in major cities like New York or similar expensive cities.
Priority Club also has more promotions for points then all of them. Sure I dislike their customer service overseas in their call centers however thankfully I rarely interact with them and I cherry pick their best hotels while drowning in a sea of bonus points.One can earn one or half of a free night in one night/stay!
Everyone has their own needs and wants.
And it largely dependent on one's travel profile, and hotel preference in terms of price, location, room preference, amenities, etc.
Those two chains fit my needs, and are pretty much complimentary.
Since I am in Asia, MR promo gives me access to free nights at number hotel in various parts of Asia that are FS in places I want to travel to too!
