In the past few months, when I have been checking prices for various Hilton chain hotels, I have been offered variety of Premium Room rewards. Most of the times, sans few obvious mistakes, the prices in points have seemed rather high.
Today when I was checking rates for Hilton Abu Dhabi hotel, I decided to do a simple Excel spread sheet to find out the value that Hilton assesses to their points.
Depending, whether I base the value on the “Best Available Rate” or “Advance Purchase Rate”, the value is either $0.0041 or $0.0037 per Hilton HHonors points.
At these valuations, I consider these “Premium Room Rewards” to be close to highway robbery.
