Booking 2 rooms

If you book 2 rooms on one booking for one night do they treat it as 2 stays or 2 nights or one stay one night ?
if you are gold do you get all get a free breakfast ?

Hi,

It will be 1 stay 1 night. However you should get HH points for both rooms.

Last year as a gold I got breakfast for both rooms ( this year it has been irrelevant as i had booked an executive level room for both rooms) when travelling with my mother.. I think technically you get breakfast for yourself and 1 other.

Regards
TBS

You and one guest get breakfast.

Individual hotels can be more generous.

As stated above, it's 1 stay and 1 night. In my experience over 19 years, we have always got the free breakfast for 2 rooms. Not entitled to it, but we've always got it.

I travel with my family and book 2 rooms quite
often- in fact I’m on a trip right now with 2 rooms booked at 5 different Hilton properties in different cities across Europe. Since my kids really like hotel breakfasts, I always contact the property in advance to ask if they’ll extend my diamond benefits to both rooms. I have been told “no” several times, including by one of the properties we were considering on this trip (we booked a different one in the same city where they did give us all breakfast). To add insult to injury, I pointed out to the hotel that refused us the second set of breakfasts that my wife has gold status and I could put her in the second room, but they said that I needed to book the room in her name directly or they wouldn’t honor her status at all. At 2 of the properties at which I stayed this week and last, there was a charge for the kids’ breakfast on the bill at checkout. In both cases I explained that I had asked in advance and been told it would be comped
via my status, and they then waived the charge. I usually email them about breakfast if possible, so I have written proof- I haven’t neeed it on this trip so far, but have needed to show it to desk staffers at checkout in the past.

How points will go on my situation:

I need 2 rooms but other room is for 4 nights and other is for 3 nights (3 night room is checking-in one day later than other, leaving at the same day).
Is my only option to make two different reservations? I`am in the room that checks in one day later than other so do I get points from both rooms even if they are different length of stays and different reservations, but under my name? Can hotel put them in the same folio when I arrive?
