I have two stays coming up on 4NF and while the 4NF cashback of $150 can't be beat, the $800 for the stay would result in about 17k points with the Aspire (14X Hilton spend (on the whole $800), plus another 10X for the bonus on the room rate ($600), or around $90. It's been a great quarter to visit the Hilton's, especially when compared to the lame SPG/Marriott promo (WOW 250 EXTRA STARTING THIRD NIGHT, and different clock for SPG and Marriott too).
I had a recent stay where a week before my stay, there was an advance purchase rate that was cheaper than the original 4NF rate I had with the Citi concierge.

I called the concierge and took the pre-paid rate (on the Prestige card) then checked out with the Aspire card to cover parking, restaurant and room service. I can confirm that Citi did give me the 4NF rebate.
