Booking your next hotel stay just got more rewarding with an easy new promotion from Hilton Honors.
“The new double your stay promotion,” Hilton shared about the promotion on its website. “Reach your dream stay twice as fast.”
To qualify for double points on stays worldwide from Jan. 1 to April 30, travelers must register for the promotion first using their member number no later than Wednesday, Jan. 1. Upon enrolling, double points can be earned on previously booked reservations with Hilton, so long as the stay falls within the eligible travel window.
Not a Hilton Honors member yet? Joining takes just a few minutes, and you’ll be ready to start earning away across dozens of brands in its portfolio—from Hampton Inn and Conrad to exciting new additions like The Graduate Hotels.
Hilton Honors members typically earn 10 points per dollar on bookings made directly with the hotel chain at most brands, except for Tru and Home2 properties. With this new promotion, members can double their rewards, effectively earning 20 points per dollar on eligible reservations.
Frequent Hilton guests with elite status stand to benefit even more. For instance, top-tier Diamond members, who typically earn 20 points per dollar on stays, will now accumulate an impressive 30 points per dollar. Plus, using a Hilton credit card to pay for your stay adds even more bonus points on top of these enhanced rates. With nearly 8,000 eligible properties worldwide, this is easily one of the most rewarding promotions Hilton has ever offered.
Over the past year, Hilton has expanded its offerings to include unique, one-of-a-kind stays where members can earn and redeem points. National park lovers will appreciate AutoCamp, featuring luxury Airstreams and glamping accommodations, while the addition of Small Luxury Hotels of the World opens the door to bespoke stays at boutique-style properties worldwide.
