Hilton Points Earning Spreadsheet
derpelikan and KiwiFlyer have kindly prepared a Hilton points earning spreadsheet. It is fairly self-evident but I'll let them explain the thinking. I have hosted it on my website at:

Very Nice! ^ Thanks to all, now it is all about how one values hhonors points to miles, but is is nice to be able to see the values from the different Myway options in $. Thanks again.
One thing, can you put a 100 mile value (Hampton) in the dropdown box for fixed airline miles?

Very nice! I already have a big Excel file I use to track everything, including all my anticipated flights and hotel stays, so that I can make sure I get credited with the right amounts and I know when I should upgrade to the next level of each program. I'm going to copy this sheet over to that file and now I'll have a great little tool for deciding which option to choose for my points and miles with Hilton. Although, since so many of my stays these days are at Hamptons, the points and points option is usually by far the best.

great
thanks again for kiwi for doing the layout and xcel things.
i was trying to calculate the points for a stay at the conrad in tokyo with a triple points promo and i thought that a points calculating sheet would be nice.
i hope we can set this up in the future as a html document so everyone can use it online
if you have suggestions or bugs, please pm kiwi directly.
thx bb for hosting the file

Revision 1 posted.
Changes are:
1) input rate is now before tax (in most locations, other than Australia & NZ, this is the initial rate quoted)
2) select hotel brand & FFP and it automatically provides the fixed number of miles (and message if no variable mile option)
3) added options for promo for 250, 500, or 1000 HH points

The AMEX 5 points / $ charged - does this include taxes? Does this get included with double/triple points promos? I would guess not on both counts.
Edited to add. It looks like need updating for earning on Scandics (now also 10 HHonors base points per eligible dollar spend). Are there any other changes to reflect?

Very nice indeed. What about adding the non-american HH CC and the possibility of double promotions? Next week I will have the pleasure of enoying two triple point promtions at the same time (the Q4 promotion pls a triple point promotion bought with the rate at the Waldorf Towers )
Very nice indeed considering that a 100 Dollar restaurant charge gives me 6300 points and a 500 Dollars charge is nearly enough to buy a free night in a Cat 5 hotel....
