Hilton Honors for Pc

My daughter had a wonderful stay @ the DoubleTree the app on Lexington Ave in NYC. It was her birthday weekend. I’ve stayed at many Hiltons, and Doubletree facilities throughout the states. I am also a this app customer. Though there were a few situations that occurred during check in, the front desk manager who goes by the name Heaven, handle the situations professionally, and accordingly. Heaven was very attentive, and assured me that all that is, and expected of the the app would be granted for my daughters weekend. I definitely recommend staying at the Lexington Doubletree. They treat you with respect , and honor you as a valued customer. It was a pleasure speaking to Heaven, and reassuring that she took her title very serious, and promptly handled all situations accordingly. I was very satisfied, knowing my daughters stay was exactly as expected, and that she was in good hands at the Lexington Doubletree. I write reviews here on Long Island regarding the app’s as well as Doubletree across the states. I am a dedicated member and customer, when I travel I always stay at the app/Doubletree hotels.

Lately at some hotels when I check in, the current stay actually disappears entirely from the app, it has happened to me several times now. This did not used to occur. The digital key will remain but I can no longer see the details of my reservation, message the hotel, or otherwise use anything but the digital key. In my current stay, this got much worse, as not only did it disappear, but the hotel then somehow could not see my reservation or that I had checked in at all resulting in multiple calls to the room demanding to know who we were and in someone speaking unpleasantly to my wife and telling her with a tone that we were not supposed to be there (keeping in mind we had checked in with digital key, my card had been charged, etc.), and this morning somehow in a new reservation being created and being charged again and at a rate nearly double the rate on my reservation, which I then had to go correct. (And I now have two new stays with nonsensical data for the hotel showing up, perhaps created by the hotel or perhaps whatever phantoms are causing this.) Will I get proper credit for the stay? Color me doubtful. Will I be double charged? Seems not unlikely. I don’t know what’s going on with the app’s systems but it has now reached a point where the app and/or back end losing your reservations is pretty seriously adversely affecting the stay experience. — Diamond guy who is becoming afraid to use the app at all

I would have given the app a 5 if not for recent issues. There are two specific issues with the app that do not allow me to mark it higher. 1) the checkout feature on the app is great but getting the receipt up to 48 hours later is not great. Since hotels no longer out the bill under the door, I cannot verify the accuracy of the bill. If I check out with the hotel, I can get a receipt within a couple of hours and verify the accuracy on the spot. As a business traveler, not being able to process my expense report for multiple days is frustrating. 2) when using the online check-in feature, travelers indicate when they are arriving. Last week I received a call from the hotel around 645pm inquiring whether I would be arriving. I had indicated on the app I would be arriving at 10pm. I had to return a call for fear of losing my room. If I have done e check in I am not sure why they were calling. Also based on my time. When I arrived at the hotel I asked if I had indicated the wrong time. The person indicated they don’t see that information. What is this information being used for if the hotel does not have access.

I love the app because I always know exactly where I’ll be staying. It makes travel planning and logistics easier, check in easier, room selection easier, everything. Super awesome app. My only wish is that if I request a digital key, there should be some sort of record of which room I selected (even while the room is being prepared). There have been several times where the key glitches, the room isn’t ready, whatever... but the front desk always asks me “what room did you select?” and I’m not sure because without the key it’s not available for me to reference. I can say “probably top floor away from the elevators” but it’s not enough for the room to be identified and I end up in a different room or without the digital key for the remainder of the stay.
