Hilton adds 390 Small Luxury Hotels of the World properties to Hilton Honors
12.07.2024 - 19:35 / thepointsguy.com / Hilton Honors
Last month, the first three Small Luxury Hotels of the World properties were integrated into the Hilton Honors system — and now, nearly 400 more are available to book directly with Hilton, allowing members to earn or use Hilton Honors points at some incredible hotels.
Over the last few months, Hilton loyalists have been waiting patiently for this day after news broke that Hilton had snatched the collection of independent hotels from Hyatt, which many saw as a big loss for the World of Hyatt loyalty program.
Now, 390 SLH hotels and resorts have already opted to join Hilton Honors, according to a statement from Hilton, with more expected to be added over time as the partnership continues to roll out. That number is significantly more than the roughly 100 rumored to join, which is a big win for Hilton Honors and its push to expand its luxury and lifestyle offerings.
For now, Hilton Honors members, especially those with higher elite status, can expect a slew of benefits for SLH stays booked through Hilton. These benefits include:

A few standouts from the now-integrated resorts include the Rusty Parrott Lodge & Spa in Jackson, Wyoming, a 40-room stunner near Yellowstone and incredible skiing; Nimb Hotel in Copenhagen's iconic Tivoli Gardens; and Antigua's Hermitage Bay, a beautiful all-inclusive resort that makes it possible to use Hilton Honors points to pay for a vacation that includes all your food and drinks.
Hilton's partnership with SLH is just one of a handful of strategic partnerships and acquisitions helping expand Hilton's reach. This year, the company also partnered with AutoCamp, an outdoor lodging brand, to add Airstream trailers and luxury glamping to Hilton Honors. Additionally, it acquired Graduate Hotels, a collection of college-themed hotels around major universities, for $210 million. Not to mention, it took a majority stake in NoMad Hotels, too.
