Changing cash booking to points
Hopefully this hasn't been asked before - I wasn't able to find any threads on it.
If I reserve a Hilton room now, paying cash, but then later decide I'd like to pay with points - can I simply cancel my initial reservation and make a new one? Of course, if there is already room availability, this is a non-issue. I am more interested in knowing whether or not a cancelled reservation at a fully booked hotel is then available to book with points? It makes logical sense that it would be, but I don't know if there are rules behind the scenes regarding how many award rooms are allocated at any given time or something like that. Maybe someone on here has some inside info. Thanks!
