This is a fun reminiscence; I can probably go back and figure it out via email confirmations -- might be an interesting exercise when I have some downtime -- but I suspect it's somewhere between 150-250 unique hotels -- my travel is probably about 75% places I'll go once and never return to and 25% semi-regular returns.
All of the Hilton Garden Inns and Hampton Inns start to blend together after a while.
I know
Most (consistently) disappointing property - Homewood Suites Richmond Airport
Most memorable property - Waldorf Astoria Rome Cavalieri (in my top 2-3 stays worldwide)
Single property with greatest number of nights (educated guess) - Hilton Garden Inn Richmond Airport
All of the Hilton Garden Inns and Hampton Inns start to blend together after a while.
I know
- I've stayed at Hilton-family properties in 37 states + DC (missing Alaska, Alabama, Arkansas, Hawaii, Idaho, Maryland, Mississippi, Montana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Utah, Wisconsin; of those I've visited New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Wisconsin -- the others I haven't set foot in at all yet [my goal is to hit all 50 before I'm 50])
- I've stayed at Hilton-family properties in 3 Canadian provinces (BC, ON, QC)
- I've stayed at Hilton-family properties on 5 continents (North America, South America, Asia, Europe, Australia) and ~14 countries (I'm realizing that there are actually far more countries I've visited without staying in a Hilton-family hotel than there are states (Holy See, Bermuda, UAE, Mongolia, China, Germany, South Korea being the most notable exceptions -- Typically because the client did the travel arrangements)
- I've partaken in the Hilton, Curio, DoubleTree, Embassy, Hilton Garden Inn, Hampton, Tru (1x), Homewood Suites, Hilton Grand Vacations, Waldorf Astoria (3x), and Conrad (1x), but not Tapestry, Tempo, Motto, Home2, LXR, Canopy or Signia brands

Is there a way to get this overview from the website?
I have been a diamond for 10+ years now with a mix of stay/nights and base points qualifications.
When the honors rep was looking into it for me a few years ago their response showed 10 years diamond and only 470 nights.. Lifetime is quote heard to reach compared to other chains (Bonvoy 10 years, 500 nights). But too late for me to start chasing lifetime status from scratch.

Fun question; will use a couple of the responses above to synthesize mine. About 190 properties, all but about 10% within the US:
By Brand:
Conrad:2
Doubletree: 25
Embassy Suites:28
Hampton Inn: 18
Hilton: 45
HGI:42
Homewood:27
Tru: 1
Waldorf-Astoria:1
Most frequented: (estimated): Doubletree Suites Philadelphia West or HGI Milford CT.
Most Memorable: Toss up between W-A Rome Cavalieri and Conrad Macau
There have been a handful of disappointing experiences, for different reasons, but was generally happy with the places where I stayed regularly.

Earlier this year I hit 1000 nights. When they sent me a really nice lifetime Diamond gift I got a booklet and it had my stay stats in it. I have stayed at over 300 unique properties. I was dumbfounded and saddened of how many years of my life I stayed in Hilton hotels. Forget the fact I’m almost lifetime Marriott platinum too.

But instead we have been HHonored by Hilton IT.
The only way our lifetime total nights will be made available online will be if enough guests continue to request Hilton Honors to do so.

The Hilton Santa FE is a lot better than the DT, along with in a slightly better location. I actually started doing the JW Marriott since they have the better club, but the rooms/ suites are better at the Hilton. I have also done the Westin Santa FE once or twice but would rank that after the Hilton.

If I had to guess, I would say 4 to 5 hundred. I have over 3K nighs with Hilton over roughly 20 years. I would be interested to see how to get a list, along with I know some of the hotels are no longer associated with Hilton.
If I have to guess the hotel with the most Stays would be the"The roanoke" (Doubletree/ Curio) in Roanoke virgin, Double Tree Cherry Hill NJ, both of which I did roughly an 18-month project from Monday - Thursday. Normally stayed at an airport hotel Thursday night to keep my Sheraton/ Marriott status up at the time.
Othe common Hotel is the Double Tree London's Tower, where I stay roughly every 6 weeks, for the last 5 years minus covid.

Well, if you make a request to Hilton for your personal data and they agree to send you the info they're keeping about you, you might get 3 spreadsheets.
Here's how they were described by Hilton:
Here's the field info per file:
1. Personal_Data contains the following columns:
2. Search_History contains the following columns:
3. Stay_Records contains the following columns:
So if you want your spreadsheet data to look like what Hilton at least is tracking, the fields are listed above.

Here's how they were described by Hilton:
- Personal Data: This report includes your contact information, such as your name, address, and phone number, as well as any partnership information we hold. Partnership information may include a AAA number you provided to Hilton, or whether you have connected your Hilton Honors and Amazon accounts. If you are a Hilton Honors member, the report will also include your Honors number, tier and current number of points.
- Search History: This report shows the Hilton properties that you have viewed online while visiting Hilton.com, or when using the Hilton App.
- Stay Records: This report shows your stay history at Hilton properties. The report includes stays that were completed or canceled, as well as future stays. The report also indicates whether the property you visited is managed by Hilton or is a franchised property. Please be advised that if you stayed at or otherwise visited one or more franchised properties, those hotels may hold personal data related to you that Hilton does not control and cannot access. Please contact those franchise hotels directly if you would like to make a DSR request with one or more of those properties.
Here's the field info per file:
1. Personal_Data contains the following columns:
name e-mail address(es) phone number(s) phone type physical addresses address type HH number honors tier honors points government/military amex co-brand cardholder travel partners+loyalty numbers
property name city state/province country search date
hotel name city state/province country arrival date departure date stay status stay type confirmation number managed/franchised
So if you want your spreadsheet data to look like what Hilton at least is tracking, the fields are listed above.
