Your company should provide adequate accommodation and I am sure the Wyndmam is.

Your career depends so much on your boss. Promotions, pay rises and a more comfortable working relationship with your boss should greatly outweigh the benefits of staying at your preferred hotel chain for a week.
You obviously don't possess the obsessive trait for travel and flying that many of us do at FT.

That week may be the difference of getting to a higher level of status!

And there are always other jobs.

I like the switch hotels plan. I know the new employee will be slightly inconvenienced, but points are points, and stays are stays!

Or you could imagine a boss that pays for your room when you travel together and takes all your points...

I'm tempted to call and cancel 4 nights of the Wyndham reservation and just stay at the Hilton until the night everyone else gets into town.
Make sure that the Hilton is cheaper than the Wyndham and document it, so that you can say that you saved the company money by choosing a cheaper hotel.
