hardwood floors or tile? WWYD?

I'm opening up the kitchen so its a great room with the dining room and living room. the DR and LR have unfinished beautiful 2 toned hardwood floors. So i was thinking of adding hardwood to the kitchen to keep it one big space. but i know its going to be a lot more money because the contractor has to match the floor and then finish the new new floor and DR and LR floor which will take at least 3 days. but he did say because its 2 toned they'll have to sand it down and stain it so it all matches.

should i just do tile to make it easier and keep the original floor color? Or put the hardwood down so the room flows with the same flooring? WWYD?

I have wood in my kitchen and I haven't had any problems. I just have a little mat in front of the sink.

Look into the new wood-look tile. They come in 4" and 6" widths and various "wood shades". You might find a close match to your existing floor and not worry about spills etc
