    Great video! Love double dipping as a Hilton Diamond member / Marriott Titanium member and booking through FHR. I know people often say using Amex points through their portal isn't optimal, but I stayed 4 nights at the Ritz Carlton in Waikiki and got significantly more value booking through FHR as opposed to transferring points to Marriott first. $240 in breakfast credit and they were offering a $400 property credit if you booked 4 nights on top of the already given $100 benefit. So although I got 1 cent per point on the booking, I got $740 in food credit! That's much better than 2 cpp in my opinion

    Nice Video, Just stayed at the Conrad Osaka this week for two nights for our Anniversary. I didn't use my FHR since I used my free stay certificate and one night with points. My favorite Hotel. Great video.

    WA, Conrad and Crockfords Las Vegas no longer allow double dipping Diamond benefits with FHR benefits.

    Waldorf Astoria Las Vegas experience credit was $125, kind of sad it went down to $100.

    • @VincentXGoh
      @VincentXGoh  Місяць тому +1

      Yea I read about it and saw a lot of comments about $125 but then when I did the research for my video it was showing $100 😕

    Beside honoring your status, do you get Hilton points if you stay at a Hilton property?

    • @VincentXGoh
      @VincentXGoh  19 днів тому +3

      Booking through FHR and entering your Hilton membership in the loyalty field does provide Hilton points. I just came back from my Mexico vacation and I booked Conrad Tulum through FHR and I got points when I check my Hilton app

    Conrad LA doesn’t allow stacking of Diamond benefits with FHR 😢

    • @VincentXGoh
      @VincentXGoh  Місяць тому +1

      That’s unfortunate, in the end it is up to the property if they want to honor north or not

      @@VincentXGoh Informative video! Keep up the great work! I'm glad I saw this as I ran into the same stacking issue at the Conrad LA mentioned above. I just assumed this was the case everywhere. Good to know that is not the case!

      Really I was able to stack it when I stayed past two years.

    • @icanseaclearnow
      @icanseaclearnow Місяць тому +2

      Similar, Crockfords Las Vegas does not allow stacking both benefits.
      And same with some international properties such as Waldorf Astoria Versailles Trianon Palace. FHR provided breakfast for two and Diamond status allows you the breakfast buffet. You can’t ask for food credit for use at another meal.

    Room upgrade NEVER works , with Amex or diamond status , they always says there is nothing available

      It works very well in Asian countries but not so much in North America unfortunately

    Has anybody actually tried to stack all these food credits?

    • @VincentXGoh
      @VincentXGoh  Місяць тому +1

      There are data points on Reddit or Flyertalk where folks were able to stack but not all property allow it.

    Do hotels honor your status if you're using a third party to book the stay? I've heard the hotel may not honor status if done through 3rd party?

    • @VincentXGoh
      @VincentXGoh  Місяць тому +2

      With AMEX FHR they do, there are many data points of other folks having the same experience on Flyertalk or Reddit where the hotels recognize their status when booking through FHR.
      I believe it is a contract the hotels have with Amex but it is up to each property's discretion

      Hilton and Hyatt do for sure. Not sure about other smaller and boutique chains.
