Hi all,
I have been a Hilton Diamond member for 11 years, typically staying around 100+ nights a year. To cut to the chase, I am rather hacked off with the uber-devaluation of Hilton points which I use solely for vacations in Southern Europe (properties that are warm, sunny and have an external pool to relax around).


I am strongly considering jumping ship to another chain that enables me to earn enough points to redeem circa 15-20 nights a year in a “top quality hotel” similar to Conrad Maldives, Rome C, and Hilton Malta etc.

I have limited the choice of “alternative” brands to either Holiday Inn or Marriot due to Hotel locations for work and locations/brands available for play (including Ritz Carlton/Inter-continental etc)


To date, I have had no issue with Hilton as they have some outstanding 5* “vacation” properties that over the years I have thoroughly enjoyed. However, this devaluation has put a significant obstacle in the ability to earn enough points to cover the 15-20 nights a year points vacation “goal”.
I travel on vacation with my wife and child, and would really appreciate some feedback on the best choice of program that suits my criteria (even if this is sticking it out with Hilton).
