How do Hilton treat you as an Elite?

I just received mine this morning for Gold (as HH Diamond). I wonder if frequency of stays in the US makes a difference? Mine are probably 75%+.

I won't be participating.

Not in my case. I’m fairly similar in US stays to that.

I haven't stayed anywhere in the US in 4-5 years. As a 13-year Diamond just short of LTD, I got offered Gold. Who knows why.

I'm Silver and stayed at Hilton Adelaide for the 2nd Test but with a QF booking so I could use a hotel voucher. SFA benefits as a Silver so got what I booked and only missed out on some points.

It's a pretty tired hotel and needs a reno. Bedding is really, really comfy. Room was clean and had a SHUB and severe shortage of available power outlets. Nothing accessible near the bed so had to unplug a valuable light to be able to plug in two things.

Terrific location but on Sunday mornings it's a ghost town. The markets were closed which is mystifying.

Adelaide Central Market is closed Sunday and Monday.
It's a regular thing. (For Adelaide)
The site between the Hilton and the market has been under construction for a while now.

Both stays as Diamond


DoubleTree Montreal Airport
1 night $279CAD
Booked King Room
Received King Studio Suite (paid the $10 upgrade fee with OLCI)
Short overnight stay - airport shuttle was good, room tidy and modern and staff at check in were friendly. Didn’t have breakfasty so can’t comment on that, but they did mention it was included as a Diamond.

Hilton San Francisco Union Square
1 night $205USD
Booked 2 Double Beds
Received King Junior Suite
Ongoing protests out the front of the hotel so provided a letter at check in explaining there was no house keeping, lobby bar was closed and a few other services were restricted/limited. Could hear the noise from our floor (39) when near the window so I’d be careful if staying on lower floors and noise bothers you. Check in staff were lovely and provided upgrade, 2 x breakfast vouchers and room credit. Also offered late check out of 2:30pm. Hotel was great, buffet breakfast spread was huge and the gym was impressive for a hotel set up. Location was good and found it easy to walk to everywhere I wanted in the area. Used our credit at the sky bar which had amazing views but the menu was a little underwhelming.

It wasn't a surprise as its well signed but it's one of the best things going in Adelaide so seems crazy to be closed on a Sunday. Very few cafes open in the area too. Construction didn't seem to be affecting ops too much on the Saturday.

Famously, QVM closes Monday and Wednesday - at least they save the weekend, when of course it's packed.
Agree that without the market, the Hilton is in a bit of a desert, particularly in the mornings. Depends on how far one wishes to walk. This may change once the redevelopment is finally completed.
