Will I keep the 2025 credit on the modified booking from five to three nights and be able to use the 2026 credit on the new two night booking?

Will I lose the 2025 credit for changing the reservation and use the 2026 credit for making a new booking?

Something else? I'm new to using these credits. I've been a Platinum cardholder for many years, but have never had a good time to use HC hotels.

Thanks!
If you modify the current 5 night booking down to 3 then you should receive a refund for 2 nights and will keep the 2025 $300 credit as I'm assuming the cost of the remaining 3 nights is well over $300 so there's no reason for them to claw anything back.

The new 2 night booking will use the first half 2026 credit.
