I've been with Priority Club for several years, and I've never heard any mention of La Quinta being co-owned or co-programmed during that time. During that time I've seen Canclewood join, I've seen them start Indigo, but nothing about La Quinta.)
Then recently Hilton's been in the news about being acquired by Blackstone Group, and the news mentioned that Blackstone already owns La Quiinta. So there you go. But what Blackstone plans to do with them all (whether it would put La Quinta in with HHonors, or take Hampton out of HHonors and put it with La Quinta, or whatever) is not at all known at this point.
