Default Using airmiles to get airport hotel?

One more question can't find the answer online for

Can I use the American Airlines miles to get an airport hotel the night before the flight? I am looking online. I can't transfer the miles to airmiles.co.uk can I?

You can collect them at all the major hotels but you can't seem to use the miles to pay for the hotel? Anyone have an opnion?

Is there a reason you don't want to call AA?

It is what it is, AA miles are not Airmiles.

One time, I was short on Hilton points for a week's stay so I opened an Amtrak account as that was the most efficient way of laundering AA miles into HH points. Years later, and I've still never been on Amtrak.

I have got like maybe 10k miles to pay with before I go below the number for the free flight. I will give that a look. Thanks mate!
