While I don't have experience with Hilton in these types of circumstances, IC has made a "one time exception" for me in the past in which they credited me the points/stay credits for a "non-qualifying stay," so I'm sure it's possible, but it might take a fight.

I have received points for all of my stays booked through my company's online reservation tool. Of course, it's understandable that they wouldn't want to piss off business travelers (I have a choice between Hilton, Marriott, and Starwood as my corporate hotel chains), but I still think they should change their T&Cs to be more clear. Certainly it comes up often enough as a question on FT. chitownflyer, yes, I have read that in HHonors T&C, but it’s certainly not as clear-cut as they word it.

I do not agree with this policy, but this is the way that it is. If you have an AAA membership, you should try entering your AAA number on the Hilton website to see what rates a particular hotel will offer, as the AAA rate may sometimes offer a very good savings.
