Hilton Chain bonus, 1000 MQM + 1000 Bonus per stay
I didn't see any threads on this one yet, sorry if there is one. I just signed up for this awesome promotion. Register with your Hilton HHonors number and Delta will give you 1000 MQMs and 1000 bonus miles from now until May 31.
Now if my company just let me book through delta.com I would be Platinum by the end of may with the other promotion. This better not be an April Fool's joke....

Is there a limit of MQM's you can get? I have 8 stays booked through 5/31.

Does this apply to reservations that have already been booked? I have a few upcoming, and am considering canceling/rebooking.

Nice find. I just booked a 4-night Hampton Inn stay today. Maybe I could split it into 2 stays of 2 nights and earn double MQMs and miles?
I've got to find some other Hilton properties stays in this time frame. I'm in the middle of a targetted Hilton promotion where I'm getting double Hilton points for a year.

I don't know if you have to rebook in order for the promotion to kick in. I have a 3 night stay beginning tonight at Hampton Inn. I was previously Hhonors points and HHonors points, but just switched to HHonors points + Delta miles for the sake of this promotion. I'm too lazy to cancel and rebook since I'll be checking in in just a few hours. I'll let you guys know if my bonus miles register from this one.

Nice find. As a recently-converted MQM wh*re, I just canceled an upcoming stay at the InterContinental in Cleveland and re-booked at at Hilton Garden Inn. I've never been in a HGI. Is the difference between the HGI and the IC worth 1k MQM's?

HGIs are fine, most are newer. It is a "limited-service" hotel (usually lack a restaurant) versus a full-service hotel like the IC. I'm sure you can find more info in the Hilton forum.

Depends on how long you're going to be in the hotel. If you're there on business, it probably won't matter much to you. I use it to sleep, poop, and shower.
On vacation, there's obviously a difference in staying at a nice hotel vs a common 2-3 star chain.
Unless, of course, we're talking about a Starwood property with a Heavenly bed. Closest I can get to a night at home.

So it's up to you how much you need the 1000 MQMs :-)
