IHG next?

[@tylermorningstar5054]

This is a great breakdown! One of my go-to channels for travel tips!

[@YellowProductions]

Wow, thanks!

[@tonyp.4314]

Chris! Thanks for doing this. Sorry I missed the live, but I know what I'll be doing tonight.

I travel for business - so the “simple” hotels (lol) are my favorite. Hampton Inn is my jam for work. Free fast early breakfast , WiFi , go out to restaurants with the rental - never had a bad room. Ironically enough , only time my reservation was lost was Embassy and DoubleTree was my favorite - but last couple stays a lot of older doubletrees that need a hella lot of TLC. So yes simple - but consistent for a work travel . So yay 🎉

[@YellowProductions]

Thanks for sharing your favorites 😀

The Hilton Kuala Lumpur, next to the train station, was amazing. I truly enjoyed myself.

[@katieking3023]

I like the Tru by Hilton brand when traveling with my kids & dog. I also like that they are all new & offer completely remote check-in.

[@YellowProductions]

Thanks for the report on Tru katie!

[@hockey1freak]

I like Home 2 with my kids but I stopped going there due to less points.

[@ryankosowsky2189]

Enjoyed this overview, but didn’t see any mention of Graduate Hotels by Hilton.

[@gtownmonarch]

Hey Mr. Rainey. Have you ever considered doing a live-stream on best cities and/or countries to visit for first time travelers?

[@YellowProductions]

Hi Gtown. I'll add that to the idea list!

[@heyimJaxin]

Yes hi chris I just woke up and can watch this im going to Madrid in the summer holidays but idk where else to go in the future

Thanks for another awesome guide to another of the big hotel groups. Have you done IHG Hotels guide yet? I can't find it in the search. If not, I look forward to it whenever (if ever?) it comes around. Always enjoy your content! Overall, what would be your best hotel brand for bang-for-the-buck reasonable hotels that have a wide selection of locations?

[@YellowProductions]

Thanks.. Haven't don't IHG yet. I think the Marriott Springhill Suites is the best brand out there in back for buck reasonable hotels with alot of locations

[@g.belanger8302]

@@YellowProductions Many thanks for the feedback, Chris!

Nothing wrong with Hilton Garden Inns. The one in Kyoto has a great breakfast buffet, omelet bar, and service. Stayed for a night in Beaufort, SC and was very nice. There’s great value there. Not using my free nights there, but happy to accumulate points there. Agree on the HGI and Hamptons being hit or miss, so just check TripAdvisor reviews.

I stay mostly at Hilton or Marriott while I travel. I have American Express Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant & American Express Hilton Aspire cards, which give me elite status for both hotel conglomerates.

[@biancalucia8388]

Tru by Hilton are so clean!

[@CM80085]

I just noticed a new Curio property in the L.A. area opening soon…The Jordan San Gabriel, Curio Collection by Hilton

[@Doct0rr]

I find these videos very helpful, would you consider making similar videos for IHG, Wyndham and Choice Hotels?

[@paulkeay5032]

There's a new Conrad in Singapore now. It's the former Regent Hotel. The Hilton on Orchard Lane (originally adj to the Four Seasons) has moved and is in the old giant Mandarin Hotel on Orchard Road

[@ryanguzek361]

I had no idea there were so many chains for Hilton.. thanks for the content

[@YellowProductions]

Yeah. Seems like more and more brands on the daily 😀

[@thetravelingfoodies]

Please review Hyatt in Indian Wells

[@mjcombs73]

Question: I have enough points at 320k to get 5 days free at a hotel that charges 80k points. Which Hilton would you recommend in the county of LA?

[@millerlite502]

When are you going to Zimbabwe ?😎

[@EmilLarssonswed]

very good video. thanks Chris

[@YellowProductions]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@Milkyway109]

So how are the Bangkok Hiltons? Are they really 5-star?

[@NostalgiaMan]

I am half tempted to work for Hilton now. I am disappointed in Crowne Plaza and IHG overall

[@heatherangellight8558]

@YellowProductions! Chris, we stayed at a Hilton in Newport Beach / Irvine a few years ago and it was awful. We complained to the manager in person and she advised it is not even a real Hilton but another company that just licensed the Hilton name. Sharing in case you weren’t aware they do that as well.

[@jimmyjames6492]

Hilton. For the Stay. Thanks for the info + video!

[@davidburrow5895]

I disagree with you and many of the commenters on Hampton Inn. I've never been to one I didn't like. Some are rather generic, but they're immaculately clean, the staff is friendly, and have a good variety on the breakfast buffet. Many others (particularly those in city centers) are in converted historic buildings and have unique personalities. I don't see the point of spending hundreds of dollars a night on a hotel. Hampton Inn provides a perfectly nice experience for a decent price.

[@YellowProductions]

Thanks for sharing your perspective David

[@diningwithderek]

What is the most luxurious room that you have stayed in at any of the Hilton Hotel brands?

Cookie is not always warm

[@YellowProductions]

It's "supposed" to be warm -- double trees that serve cold cookies are slacking

[@Bill_Woo]

People should not get carried away with living in the past, though. Hilton has evolved over the years from a respectable consumer friendly brand to a subtly-gouge-the-customer brand. Ask ANY long term employee of a hotel that Hilton has acquired. All will verify this. The worst example is Flamingo. In the past it like all reputable strip casinos knew it was in their best interest to do EVERYTHING to keep customers HAPPY. Mandatory, even to the point of losing money, to keep customers euphoric - and spending. Then Hilton bought them, and that policy was greatly eliminated.

[@Bill_Woo]

Keep in mind to not have selective memory. This is not the honorable chain that Conrad Hilton built. It's now the plaything of people like Paris Hilton, widely regarded in the entertainment industry as one of the scuzziest individuals of all. I saw all this up close. I had a Hilton Carte Blanche premium credit card decades ago, and saw the deterioration with my own eyes. Ask any long term employee.

[@thetravelingfoodies]

Marriott over Hilton
