Donnak, I asked the same question a week or so ago in one of the other threads. It seems that the date it joins Hilton is still a bit vague. This was Anthony's reply:
Hi cjd,
The hotel will join the Curio Collection late August 2014. I have not be provided a specific date, however. As soon as the property is operating as a Curio – A Collection by Hilton hotel, HHonors members will have the opportunity to redeem points and apply weekend certificates.
If I find out further information regarding opening dates, I will keep you in the loop!
Thanks,
Anthony
That was the response I got as well, but I pushed for more clarificaton. It seems that as long as the stay occurs AFTER the SLS oficially joins Curio/HHonors, Hilton points and benefits will apply. This is still true for reservations made before the official join date through SLSLASVEGAS.COM... the date of the stay is the deciding factor, not when the reservation was made. This leaves me trying to decide if I want to move a stay in late September and early October from HGVC Strip to SLS... if the "Legendary" rate is still available on SLSLASVEGAS.COM after they oficially join Curio/HHonors, I will probably move my stayl
