The Amex Hilton Aspire is my favorite card. It consistently brings back the highest ROE of any card in my wallet.
Let’s take a look at my Hilton stays this past year. Please note that this is only points relating to my Hilton hotel stays, it does not include any other expenses including other hotel stays. The ROE was determined based on my average Value Per Point (VPP) according to my end of year report.
