It’s already been cost cut.
While many properties offer a NY Strip Steak and Eggs, the voucher does not cover that despite the terms being one Entree which it’s described as one entree. I feel like many properties go above and many do the bare minimum of one entree one coffee. The property I mentioned does not even cover orange juice they cover and it states on the certificate One Entree, and one coffee or tea gratuity included. Gratuity was not previously included as was paid for by Globalists after this happened twice I contacted MHC to let the hotel know this is not within the program terms. They did not refund the charges but did change the vouchers to include gratuity, which was fine.
It depends where you go with Hilton 95% of the properties I’ve stayed at they’ve adjusted their breakfast buffet to $14.95 ($17.95 in the cities where the benefit is $18), meaning it’s covered.
