As for me I will probably have 6 stays during this promotion, 2 award stays, 2 at a property on the excluded list, and 2 without any weekend nights, so overall will be a lousy promotion.

I'm very lucky -- I had booked 10 stays, 0 awards, 2 on the excluded list (now rebooked with Hyatt), and 7 of my 8 remaining stays are entirely on weekend nights.

i have a stay coming up where the first night is paid via points while the other 5 nights are on the advance purchase rate....would this be considered a reward stay or a regular stay eligible for this promo????
i may be mistaken but i remember reading somewhere that hilton would consider the entire stay as a reward stay if there is a single redemption night in the reservation....can anyone confirm this????

Whether this actually occurs is another matter, but I would not tempt fate.
Good luck.

sucks....i'll lose out on about 80k points if this were to happen....maybe i should just go ahead & pay for the first night as well....

Your advanced purchase rate will count, but you may need to call to get it to post. Quite often the advanced purchase rates don't post correctly and you just call it in to have it added.

i've had issues with the advance purchase rate before & have had to call in to get them posted, but here my concern is the new wording on hilton's t&c about reward nights....
