Since they're so close, one thing you could do is split the nights between the two hotels. Save some cash/points in the beginning, and still finish the trip at the PH. This might be worth it if you're ever going to return and will thus have more confidence in the best decision for future visits.

One other thought, reserve both and reach out a day before the cancellation window ends and ask to lock in a room upgrade at each. Maybe that'll tilt the odds in favor of one or the other.
