Since the demise of the Adelaide Hyatt, I have stayed at Hilton Adelaide about 15+ times (including 2 weeks ago) - NEVER had any problems... either with rooms, upgrades or recognition. They even remember to get my bedding preference (ie a topsheet) correct every time.
Must have been incredibly lucky!
Also a big thumbs up to Hilton Surfers Paradise - very nice.
however an interesting comment from a Hilton I stayed recently - "Welcome Back Esquire- as a REAL Diamond member....:shock: " ...a pot-shot at all the new VA Diamonds?
