How do Hilton treat you as an Elite?

This was not my experience as a gold member at the Doubletree Melaka, Malaysia a few months ago. They said only the room where the member stays gets free breakfast.
Ditto for me at Conrad Abu Dhabi as a diamond. Although they let the kids eat free anyway. Didn't receive any extra points for the second room either.
 
Does anyone know if both the rooms I have booked under my name will both get the Diamond Perks (2 rooms booked under 1 diamond membership) and earn points?

I've got a couple bookings with Hilton coming up this year at the following hotels

Hilton Osaka
Hilton Tokyo
Curio, Next Hotel Melbourne
Conrad Koh Samui

Yes they will. Diamond benefits and points for both rooms.

I was caught out by this recently as a stay in US. Booked two rooms under my name, one room I was staying in and the other was relative +1. The perks were fine for both rooms, $50 F&B credit x 2 each day, no issues. However the points/stays/nights recognition failed to materialize...

Relatives insisted they pay for their room at check out, which I thought no problems. Found out later that I needed to pay for the second room to be awarded points/credit for their stay. Apparently this also needs to be requested at the time of check in.

Can I earn Points for multiple rooms if I am paying for them?​

You can earn Hilton Honors Base Point credit for up to four rooms per stay. All eligible charges for Earning Rooms must be paid together on one folio (i.e., one hotel bill) which must be requested at time of check-in.

Diamonds should be okay.

What are people's experiences with Executive lounges as HH Diamond members, in terms of can all guests is the booking use the executive lounge or only the Diamond member? What about kids in these lounges?

I can see references to "As a diamond member we had access to the executive lounge" so I assume it applies to everyone, but I guess I'm asking specifically if this applies to say a family of two adults and two kids, or is that pushing the friendship?

Well I paid for both but still never got the points for the second room. I booked a room for 2A and 2C. It was actually the check-in guy's doing that our booking became two rooms. He said I'd get two lots of points and so split it in some way. Pretty sure I paid only one bill and our room was an inter-connecting one. We got a welcome gift of wine and reeeaaalllly nice chocolates in each room through.

No issues at Hilton Hiroshima for us on a single room booking for 2A and 2C. Treated real nice there as a diamond.

Property: LXR Umana Bali
Booked: One Bedroom Tropical Garden View Pool Villa
Received: One Bedroom Partial Ocean View Pool Villa

Impressive resort. It was recently reflagged from Banyan Tree to LXR and completely refurbished. The villas are massive and they paid a lot of attention to details both indoor and outdoor. One bedroom villas currently cost around $AU1,200 or 85k HH points. When staying 5 nights the cost drops to 68k which is an absolute bargain for this place. There are also two and three bedroom villas for larger families.

We stayed 6 nights and the place was not busy. Most guests were couples and some families with small children. We were told September is expected to be rainy but so far the weather has been perfect, warm sunny days with low humidity.

Service was impeccable. Most of the staff retained from Banyan Tree which is known for high standard of service. They really go above and beyond to make guests feel welcome and comfortable.

Can you say/find out what facilities are there for toddlers and 4-5 year olds by any chance, boomy?
Kids club? Activities? Cost etc? I can email them of course, but if it’s obvious at all that would be great.

There’s a kids club which looks very nice actually (sorry no photos) and I assume there cater for toddlers as well saw few families with little ones at breakfast.
