Generally, rewards programs aside, I think Hilton excels at the lower levels (Hamptons, Homewoods, etc) versus Marriott and Hyatt. Their brands are really consistent, hotels are generally well kept, etc. At the higher levels, think LXR, Curio, Conrad, etc... Hilton almost always disappoints me. The hotels in this range are either really tired, have borderline service, or are new-ish with impressive lobbies but cheap-o rooms that were slapped together.
I went to Hyatt and I haven't looked back. Totally get that doesn't work for everyone given their footprint, but it has worked for me.

I'm not surprised you're happy (despite your username) because Hampton is great. So are the other lower tier properties under the Hilton umbrella. It's when you climb the ladder to nicer brands that the house of cards at Hilton generally falls apart. That's not universally true - there are exceptions. Generally speaking though, I've found it to be the case.
I agree the Hilton status and points are trash in the US. Overseas though, it's a totally different story.
We just went through 5 different Hilton properties in Japan and we got upgraded to a suite every single time.
The free full breakfast and executive lounge with free booze are still fully active.
I am sticking with Hilton since they seems to have better properties in the cities where I usually go.
I have a friend that was at the Ambassador level. But kinda stopped using them after they took away the ability to get Titanium Lifetime. The benefits were being watered down from what i was told.
They moved to Hyatt because their program is hunting for customers.
Assuming you have Gold Lifetime then i'd say ditch Marriott until they improve.

I just stayed at another property and the Diamond status is basically useless. I now use the beverage credit to buy 1 drink at the bar (or two if my wife is staying as each person gets the credit). In theory it's nice that you'd get the option to apply it to something else if you're not planning to eat breakfast at the hotel, but it was a benefit I used alot for family vacations when staying at Disney where the adult breakfasts were free w/ status and the kids breakfasts were also free as they were eating with an adult. Saved hundred just in breakfast alone before going to the parks.

Anyone can easily get Gold with the Surpass card ($150 per year) and that dilutes the value. Same with the Aspire card and Diamond status. Upgraded rooms are few and far between. Take a look at the Hilton subreddit and you'll see what their members are saying. Status is much better used outside the US.
