Yes, hopping is a bit of a p.i.t.a. My project over the last 7 months has a Marriott, CY, Westin, Sheraton, and Hilton all within about 2 miles. Marriott stuck mostly to stay awards (double nights, double points - nice), but SPG and Hilton insisted on stay promos, so I did a lot of hopping.
I'm lucky that my Amex corporate card downloads directly to my T&E system, or it would be an even bigger pain.
