Purchase Hilton Honors Points with 100% Bonus (Effectively 50% Savings) - by 18 July 2023
Hilton Honors members can now purchase Hilton Honors Points and receive a generous 100% bonus from now until 18 July 2023. Do note that a minimum of 5,000 points purchase is required to qualify for the bonus offer and members can purchase up to 160,000 points during this promotion (and receive 320,000 points in total).
Hilton Honors points are typically priced at 1.0 US cents each so with the 100% bonus, the price will be brought down to just 0.5 US cents each. Depending on where you wish to go, it might make plenty of sense for you to purchase them under the current promotion. While Hilton does not have a fixed award chart for free nights, there are still some sweet spots for redemption. For example, the Conrad Tokyo (which I absolutely love and have stayed on multiple occasions) can get pretty expensive during peak seasons.
A five-night stay at the Conrad Tokyo can cost around 739,622 JPY (approximately USD 5,350) in the Spring but the same stay for the same room type will only require 380,000 points which you can effectively purchase for USD 1,900 (with some creative point-pooling) - this represents an almost 65% discount!
While you should not speculatively purchase Hilton Honors points in hopes that you will be able to use them towards a cheaper redemption, this is a great time to seriously plan out some of those vacations that you have been sitting on.
TRIBE Living Bangkok Sukhumvit 39 is a great value choice for budget-conscious travelers but its slightly longer walk from Phrom Phong BTS Station may make it less convenient compared to more accessible (but pricier) options in the area.
