Re: Hilton honours
I'm certain that on the occasions when I have previously stayed at a Hilton property where at least one night has been an award night that has backed onto a revenue night, I have earned points (for the revenue night) and a stay credit. However, I've just noticed this under point three of the T&Cs (accrual of points):
If at least one night of the Member's stay is consumed with the use of HHonors Rewards points, the entire stay is considered a "Reward Stay" and no HHonors points may be earned, except that if Member is using Room Upgrade Rewards, any money spent on the original reservation will earn points and/or miles consistent with these Terms.
1) Has anyone had experience with a mixed reward/revenue stay not earning
any points?
2) It's been a while since I've had an award stay but could someone please confirm that, despite the above T&Cs, (i) award nights still count towards the annual stays requirement (eg. 16 stays for Gold tier) and (ii) even on an award stay, all the benefits of a particular membership level apply (eg. complimentary internet, room upgrade (when set to that benefit) etc.)?
4) I assume the answers to two, above, are the same whether a points stay or a points plus dollars stay, correct?
3) What is meant by 'room upgrade rewards' in the T&Cs, above? Is it using points to upgrade?
