It depends a bit on the location of the foreign travel. Carlson is strong in northern Europe, Accord in France, Farimont in Canada, some upscale chains in Asia, IIRC Best Western in Australia, etc. Hilton already has a good footprint, so I would be inclined to pick a secondary program with some interesting aspirational properties for fun.
