Guess you will be waiting a little longer, eh?

Meh - I hate Marriott but I'm still better off doing two one-night Courtyard stays and getting a Cat 1-4 free night than I am to do a two-night Hampton stay and get 5k (e.g. 1/5 of a free Cat 3 night) back.

Test of 4th-grade math skills.

What's the bigger fraction?

A. SPG's 144 exclusions out of 1,041 properties

B. HH's exclusion of 245 properties out of 3,750

Does your 144 include APAC? Cos they are also excluded. If not, then the answer is (still) A.

Question

I signed up for this promo as I already booked a stay in Antwerp over New Year.
Question: where can i find a verification that a actually signed up (other than the website of HH saying i did so) ?

I might be missing something but how do Sat and Sun not qualify as "at least two consecutive nights between Thursday and Sunday"?

Could it be that a qualifying weekend stay must include a Friday or Saturday night stay, and they were just not that thorough in giving examples? And btw, I actually like this promo. And hopefully it will trigger something from SPG and Hyatt to match.

Problem with list of excluded hotels

Is anyone else having a problem getting the list of excluded hotels for this promo to come up when clicking the link? I just get this:


HTTP Status 404 - /en_US/hh/landing/excluded_hotels_q1/index.do

type Status report

message /en_US/hh/landing/excluded_hotels_q1/index.do

description The requested resource (/en_US/hh/landing/excluded_hotels_q1/index.do) is not available.

For the first time I can recall, Hilton e-mailed me a confirmation of promo enrollment.

Anyone know if you have to register before booking or just before completing your stay? I don't see anything mentioning a booking timeframe, but just thought I'd check.

Already have a reservation for a trip in a few weeks....

This is puzzling. I would have assumed that the answer is "no". But, reading the T&C, I find nothing that excludes reward stays. I've actually got about 9 days of rewards stay scheduled in the 1st quarter, so this is an interesting question to me as well.

Just read the FAQ #16, this should give you the answer ...
