Check often. I recently released a few nights in Jan that I booked not too long ago. I booked a night there next month just yesterday.

I recommend verifying that you got the correct number of base points for your spend over 4 nights (10 points per dollar). I stayed two nights using free night certificates and they transferred my F&B spend balance from the first reservation to the second reservation. But when I checked out, they only have me points for the spend on my second day. I had to email the Diamond support desk to sort it out.

Has anyone had any luck with a paid upgrade during a reward stay? Going in early December for 6 nights (5 nights for 480k + 1 FNC). Booked a 'Pacific View King', reservation now says 'Ocean View King'. Assuming I got an upgrade due to Diamond status. Given the weather in early December (mid/upper 70's) I was thinking that one of the 'Ocean View Vista' rooms on the top floor would be nice with the extra sun. Curious on prices or if it's even possible. Thanks!

Speaking of inventory, they opened up some standard rooms for Dec 24-26. Just booked a stay with FNC, and there seems to be more available for those dates.

I know this is an old post but if the OP is still around or if anyone else encountered this same scenario please let me know exactly how you got it resolved. I'm in the same situation. Started with three seperate reservations that got merged and only received points on the last night's spend. $600+ F&B spend on our first two nights did not receive base or bonus points. The folio does not give the details and just refers to it as "rollover" charges. I have emailed Honors customer service and am getting the run around. They clearly can't be bothered to do the math to help sort it out. Total folio just under $1k but only 2600 base points. I have emailed the hotel to see if they can give me the detailed folios that make up the "rollover" amount in hopes that I can use that to sway the Diamond Desk to help sort this out. Just looking for any pointers while I await the detailed folios.
I ran into the same issue with an IHG Mr and Mrs Smith property, where IHG couldn't see the folio. Mr and Mrs Smith had it resolved within hours, versus the no resolution I've experienced with Hilton.

I have found emailing Hilton to be a complete joke. You may have some luck contacting the Diamond Desk (if Diamond). Know in advance how many points and your math, and they should be able to do a courtesy adjustment. The problem I've run into (Hilton Los Cabos) is that for some reason Hilton doesn't have ready access to the folio and so then they ask you to email it in and by then everything seems to get lost in the shuffle. I finally gave up and forfeited like 18k points.

My understanding is that "Pacific View" and "Ocean View" are the same thing, but the first one is the only room type available for standard redemptions. It's essentially an inventory management trick.
Speaking of inventory, they opened up some standard rooms for Dec 24-26. Just booked a stay with FNC, and there seems to be more available for those dates.
