Frequently asked questions.
Common questions about Hilton Honors.
Hilton Honors points are generally worth around 0.4-0.6 cents per point. While this seems low compared to other programs, Hilton points are easier to earn (10-12x on stays, up to 14x with credit cards), and great redemptions can yield 1+ cent per point.
No! Hilton Honors has no blackout dates for award stays. If a standard room is available for booking with cash, it's available for points. This is one of Hilton's biggest advantages over competitors.
Diamond status provides 100% bonus points on stays, complimentary breakfast, executive lounge access, space-available room upgrades, and 48-hour room guarantee. It requires 60 nights or can be obtained through the Hilton Aspire credit card.
Points & Money lets you combine points and cash for award stays when you don't have enough points for a full redemption. The value varies, but it's a flexible option when your points balance is low.
The fastest ways to earn Hilton points are through co-branded credit cards (up to 14x at Hilton), stay bonuses and promotions, dining rewards programs, and shopping portals. Credit card welcome bonuses can provide 100,000-175,000+ points.
