Value verdict
Price FHR against an advisor booking. Perks are similar (breakfast, ~$100 credit, upgrade); FHR guarantees 4pm checkout and can use the Platinum hotel credit, while an advisor booking needs no card and usually still earns hotel points. On longer stays, check whether FHR's rate is above direct — NerdWallet found a 6.3% average premium.

Insider value tips
- FHR: book Pay Now (prepaid) to trigger the Platinum $300 semi-annual hotel credit; a refundable prepaid rate still qualifies (credit is clawed back if you cancel).
- Breakfast for two at hotels of this level is often a meaningful daily cost; a package that includes it is worth more than a slightly cheaper room-only rate.
- Book a flexible rate early, then re-check weekly and rebook if the price drops.
