Have you checked any specific dates and stays for comparison?
Generally speaking with Hilton properties, I find the Honors rate is a few bucks cheaper per night with the Honors discount. Expedia and DL Stays are usually identical, but DL Stays usually includes taxes in quotes while Expedia does not (which superficially makes DL Stays look more pricey when it is actually not)
The 3 night stay below shows identical $488 all-in pricing for DL Stays and Expedia and $10 less at $478 from Hilton site with Honors discount.
