Hilton is currently running their regularly appearing campaign where they are selling points for half the price (or rather they are giving out a 100% bonus which is effectively the same). The promotion is up until May 14th.

You can buy a maximum of 240,000 points through these promotions per year, which results in a total yield of 240,000 + 240,000 = 480,000 points.

You get the bonus of 100% from buying 6,000 points or more.

Is buying Hilton points a good deal?

While often using Hilton points does not give you a good deal due to dynamic pricing, it can be a fantastic way of booking some of the more higher-end properties. Have a look at these options below and see how much you can save on average.

Please note that depending on the property, it can be difficult to find availabilities for 5 consecutive nights. You might have to book either very far out (up to a year is possible) or be very flexible in the short-term when more reward rooms are being released.


Note: You will only get these good redemption rates when you book a standard room (up to 150,000 points per night depending on the property). Premium reward rooms are usually not a good redemption.

Also make sure that you make use of the book-5-pay-4 redemption rates - for Hilton Honors members, when booking 5 nights you will only have to pay for 4 nights. That means that for a 5-night redemption stay at 80,000 points per night, you will only pay 4 x 80,000 = 320,000.
