Considering you're not actually duplicating an overnight stay, you might be able to argue with HHonors to get the additional stay credit.

0 Points for Day Use at Hilton Madrid Airport
I didn't get anything at all for my day use at the Hilton Madrid Airport. Except for a rather unuseful answer to the question I send to the Diamond Desk. Is it correct that I get 0 points/miles?

I have in this year alone stayed a few day rates and got all points / stay / nights credits. They posted automatically except for one. Emailed the property and they in turn emailed Hilton (with me in the loop) who corrected the mistake. Day rates are useful for layovers / meetings etc.

You should get points and a stay credit, you probably will not receive a night credit. See:

In the thread you referenced there is indeed this post:
...but then the two following posters say they've always had stays and nights for day-rates

Points for DAY USE stay after 02 Apr 2018
I have reservation with DAY USE rate and another reservation for same day in another Hilton hotel.
I had stays like this in January and I was credited points and stay.
Now I see, that my reservations are shown in my account next way (first is DAY USE):
05 May 2018 - 06 May 2018 Hilton XXX
05 May 2018 - 06 May 2018 Hilton YYY
I emailed to [email protected] if there will be two stays or not and was answered.
Had anyone DAY USE stay in this April? Was points and stay credited for it?

Are you saying that on the previous bookings the first showed as equivalent of May 5 to May 5, rather than May 6, and you're wondering what the impact of this will be? Or has nothing changed there?
What's the significance of Apr 2?

Hilton day rates post as if they were an overnight stay.
Therefore you will have two stays posting as May 5 - May 6. One will be disallowed. (probably the overnight one) However if you call Hilton they ought to make a manual adjustment, as they do in most scenarios that are common sense rather than cheating the system.
Of course many of us just avoid the headaches and book a different chain for one of the stays.

Thank you for your response.
In researching your stay details, we found another already posted with similar or overlapping dates at a different hotel. A Member must be the registered, staying, paying guest in order to receive credit for a qualifying stay. As a service gesture, we are pleased to make an exception and have awarded credit for the additional booking.

No base points issued on Day stay?
Just wondering if I’ve missed something here ?........ thought points tally was a little low for cash spend ( £91 , £85 for room / £6 for parking ) .
I normally estimate around 5k points per £100 spent but base points not issued?.... thought I’d run it past you guys before I contact the diamond desk....cheers.

Day stays are eligible for points. Contact Hilton to get it fixed.
