Hilton Honors Announces New 2018 Benefits

Jan 15, 2018
News

Hilton Honors updates make it easier than ever to earn points and unlock rewards.

Starting in April, members enjoy new elite-tier bonus rates for Silver (20 percent), Gold (80 percent) and Diamond (100 percent) members. Silver, Gold and Diamond members also roll over qualifying nights earned beyond current elite tier requirements to count toward elite tier status the next year, as of 2018.

Once the new benefits go into effect, if a member stays 40 nights in a calendar year, they earn 10,000 bonus points on every subsequent 10th night. There is no cap, registration required or time limit for the new perk. Diamond members who stay 60 or more nights in one year earn 30,000 bonus points. Members staying 60 or more nights in a calendar year also may gift Gold status to another traveler, or Diamond status if the original member stays 100 or more nights.

“We have heard our Hilton Honors members loud and clear — they are looking for simple, straightforward ways to earn more points and rewards the more they stay with Hilton. Now more than ever, every stay counts — there’s always another milestone to reach, benefit to unlock, reward to earn,” said Mark Weinstein, senior vice president and global head of customer engagement, loyalty and partnerships, Hilton.

“Over the last several years, we have been evolving Hilton Honors to ensure our members receive the best hotel stay experience with perks like free WiFi and member-only rates when they book directly with us. Last year, we introduced even more ways for members to use their points with more flexibility and ease, including Amazon Shop with Points and Points Pooling. Now, in 2018, we want to give our members more ways to earn their points and show our loyalty back to our most elite members,” he continued.
