Ugh, I wish Hilton was like Marriott and you could book points reservations without all the points in your account... I'm torn about what to do for Japan...
I want to stay two nights at the Conrad Osaka and use my free weekend night stays for that since it will be a Saturday and Sunday. However, I haven't earned those nights yet, and there has to be standard room award availability in order to use the free weekend nights. There are currently standard rooms available for 95k/night. I have enough points to book that as a placeholder and then (presumably) transfer it to my free weekend nights and get my points book. But then I don't have enough points to book three nights at the Hilton Tokyo Bay. It seems like there's more point availability at the Hilton Tokyo Bay since it's a big hotel with a ton of rooms, and that hotel is a lot cheaper in case I have to pay in cash, but I'm really hoping to make this a no cash trip.
Decisions.... if anyone has any input, feel free to shout it out!
eta: Hmmm I suppose if I got in a pinch on Hilton points availability at Hilton Tokyo Bay, I could always book a cash rate with URs... would lose out on the Hilton Gold status but that wouldn't be the end of the world.
