Earning points as normal when you stay at a Hilton – or not earning points at all? You're doing it wrong: Hilton almost always has an ongoing promotion to earn double (or more) points on hotel stays. And its upcoming promo is an easy one to earn a ton of bonus points on Hilton stays all spring and summer long
Hilton Honors just unveiled its new Double Points promotion to earn – you guessed it – double the points on any and all Hilton stays from May 2 all the way through Sept. 2, 2024. And there's no limit to how many bonus points you can earn with this upcoming promotion.
Whether you've already got a Hilton stay lined up for this summer or not, it's worth registering for this promo to make sure you earn as many points as possible. Do it now before you forget!
Have a Hilton stay through May 1? It's not too late to get in on Hilton's current Points Plus promo!
This could be an incredibly lucrative promotion, depending on where you're staying … and how much it costs. These bonus points helps offset Hilton's fairly lackluster points program, as Hilton's unpredictable and often sky-high award rates mean cashing in your Hilton Honors won't get you as far as other hotel programs.
Checking in before May 2? Not a problem: So long as you check out after May 2 (and before Sept. 2), you're eligible to earn double the points. And again, there's no limit to how many bonus points you can earn through this promotion!
You can register now for this upcoming promo – and you should. Whether you've already got an upcoming Hilton stay booked for summer 2024 or not, it's a no-brainer to register since you won't earn these bonus points if you don't sign up for the promo beforehand. Hilton stays you've already booked will still earn this bonus so long as you register before your trip.
How this Hilton Honors Promo Adds Up
Let's put this Hilton Honors promo in action with a handful of examples to show you just how much this promo can help you pile up extra Hilton Honors points.
Let's say you're just an everyday Hilton Honors member with a two-night stay at the LondonHouse Chicago, paying about $450 a night for a weekend visit in July. If you don't register for this promo, you'd earn 9,000 Hilton Honors points since you earn a flat 10x points per dollar.
So as long as you register for this promo before your stay (but not necessarily before you book) and use a digital key through the Hilton app at some point during your trip, that same stay would earn:
- Base points: 10 points per dollar X $450 X 2 nights = 9,000 Hilton Honors Points
- Double Bonus Points: 10 points per dollar X $450 X 2 nights = 9,000 Hilton Honors Points
- 18,000 points total
But maybe you've got Hilton Honors Gold Status – one of our favorites among the big hotel chains – from racking up previous Hilton stays or simply having *amex platinum card*.
On that same two-night stay in Chicago, you would earn:
- Base points: 10 points per dollar X $450 X 2 nights = 9,000 Hilton Honors Points
- Double Bonus Points: 10 points per dollar X $450 X 2 nights = 9,000 Hilton Honors Points
- Status bonus: 8 bonus points per dollar X $450 X 2 nights = 7,200 Hilton Honors Points
- 25,200 points total
But the best is reserved for top-tier Hilton members who pay with a Hilton co-branded credit card, as that earns even more points for every buck you spend. So booking that same Chicago hotel using a Hilton Honors Aspire Card – which unlocks instant Hilton Diamond Status – you would earn:
- Base points: 10 points per dollar X $450 X 2 nights = 9,000 Hilton Honors Points
- Double Bonus Points: 10 points per dollar X $450 X 2 nights = 9,000 Hilton Honors Points
- Status bonus: 10 bonus points per dollar X $450 X 2 nights = 9,000 Hilton Honors Points
- Credit card bonus: 14 points per dollar X $450 X 2 nights = 12,600 Hilton Honors Points
- 39,600 points total
At the top end, you're earning 44 Hilton Honors points per dollar by stacking this promotion with all the other ways to pile up points faster. But no matter how far you can get, it's still worth registering to earn some extra Hilton points later this spring and summer.
Bottom Line
Depending on your status and what's in your wallet, this upcoming Hilton Honors promo can be a huge boost. But no matter what's in your travel plans for late spring and through the summer, it's easy to register for this promo to rack up Hilton points faster on any hotel stays starting May 2 through Sept. 2.
