Hilton has possibly the most flexible and easy to use free night certificates of any major hotel chain. You can use them for a standard room at almost any Hilton property worldwide, regardless of what the nightly cost is in cash or points. Originally, these certs were only applicable towards weekend stays, but during the pandemic, Hilton made them available for use any day of the week, a change that was made permanent in 2022.
Some of my most memorable hotel stays of the last few years have involved Hilton free night certificates. Last year, my wife and I were finally able to go to the marvelous Zemi Beach House in Anguilla, perched by itself on a stunning stretch of Caribbean beach on which we could sometimes walk for a mile without seeing another soul. A couple of years before that, we spent an idyllic week at the Conrad Maldives Rangali Island, where we swam with whale sharks and watched reef sharks swim beneath our overwater plunge pool. There’s many more great opportunities out there.
This post aims to serve as resource for folks looking for ideas on the best places to use their free night certificates. Outside of a couple of historic properties, each hotel in this list has a Tripadvisor and/or Google reviews rating of 4.5 or above. I also didn’t include any properties whose standard rooms price below 80,000 Hilton Honors points per night. Most of the comments included below come from readers and/or members of our Frequent Milers Insiders group while the unattributed ones are mine. We will update this page regularly to include new opinions, bottom line reviews and additional properties.
How to earn Hilton free night certificates
Both Hilton credit cards below offer various paths to free night certificates. These certs are highly valuable since they can be used at almost any Hilton property in the world. However, these certificates can only be used for a standard room reward…regardless of the points price, they cannot be used towards a Premium Room Reward. It also should be noted that standard room award availability can be very hard to find at some properties.

Using Hilton Free Night Certificates for Small Luxury Hotels of the World properties
Hilton’s new-ish partnership with Small Luxury Hotels of the World (SLH) is one of the most exciting ways to use both Hilton points and free night certificates. There are now over 400 participating SLH hotels that can be booked through Hilton Honors and many of them are are drool-worthy destinations and which would be out of reach for most people when booking with cash. Like Hilton’s own properties, SLH hotels and resorts max out at 150,000 points per night, but many of them have cash rates that go well over $1,000/night.
That creates a conundrum for this post, however: pretty much ALL SLH properties are excellent places to use a free night certificate. Listing all 400 of them would quickly make this post an unwieldy behemoth that would cause finger cramps when paging through it. Because of this, we’re going to limit the listings primarily to Hilton’s own brands, but will add SLH hotels that we’ve actually stayed at or that are recommended by readers as we come across them.
In the meantime, we’ll simply say that SLH properties, in general, represent one of the best uses of Hilton Free Night Certificates.

(in parentheses is standard room points price/peak season cash price; $=less than $500/night, $$=$500-1000/night, $$$=$1000+/night)
Arizona
- Arizona Biltmore, A Waldorf Astoria Resort (90,000/$$)
- “Fabulous. A lot of things to do on property from the pool, spa, pickle ball, golf and really happening outdoor bar. Got upgraded to a junior suite as a Diamond. Short Uber ride to Old Town.” – reader Marc
- Boulders Resort & Spa Scottsdale, Curio Collection (95,000/$)
- I stayed here years ago on a long weekend with my wife and liked it a lot. Standard rooms are separate cottages with woodburning fireplaces and it really feels like you’re in the middle of the Arizona rocks.
California
- Conrad Los Angeles (90,000/$-$$)
- Hilton Santa Monica (80,000/$)
- Hotel del Coronado, Curio Collection (95,000/$-$$)
- “I don’t recommend the Hotel Del Coronado. We had an expiring cert so decided to use it up locally. They had opened a restaurant that we wanted to try. It was excellent. Otherwise, the stay was a disappointment. Our room was tight and parking was expensive. My memory says parking was somewhere between $40 and $50. The room was sufficiently disappointing that we went home.” – reader Carol
- “I am glad I am not the only one who thinks the same about Hotel Del Coronado. I have stayed there 4 times for an 5 nights each time before and after Hilton took it under their umbrella. Yes, it’s a historic hotel and it truly is amazing…but I was in an “updated” premium room with a huge balcony/terrace with direct view of the famous red roof and pool. The view was spectacular and the bathroom was nice…but the room was just average and kinda musty. I was given the option to pay for an upgrade to this room each time and I took it, only for the view. The last time I was there was 2018 so maybe they updated since. Especially at those prices. I do love historic hotels and maybe I should have stayed in the main building.” – reader PJ
- Oceana Santa Monica (105,000/$$$)
- “$1300 and up plus resort fees. FNC or points is beyond value to be ocean front on Santa Monica.” – reader Carmelita
- “Nice little LXR boutique in Santa Monica, suite upgrade over a weekend, fairly expensive for F/B but that’s the way the cookie crumbles. Very comfortable and had a peekaboo view of the Pacific.” – reader Robert
- “It’s a small, relaxed property, with spacious, comfortable rooms and an elegant feel; walking up to the lovely, ivy-strewn exterior feels like you’re entering a private club. That said, if I was paying $900 or 105,000 points per night to stay here, I couldn’t help but be underwhelmed; it feels like a hip, stylized renovation of an older motel. While I wouldn’t call it a destination to seek out, it was nice for a short getaway, and a decent place to burn some free night certificates.” – Read our full Bottom Line Review
- Waldorf Astoria Beverly Hills (120,000/$$$)
- “The best Hilton option in California IMO. Great rooms and views, excellent service. The food prices are through the roof, but my P2 enjoyed spotting NY celebrities at breakfast, ymmv. The rooftop pool is very nice and for guests only. Recommend uberring (using your Amex coupons) rather than renting a car and paying the steep valet prices.” – reader Brendan
- Waldorf Astoria Monarch Beach (95,000/$$)
- This is a very nice and well run resort. We had a nice stay, but this style of resort isn’t really my thing: it’s very large (~400 guest rooms) and too perfectly manicured for my tastes. Everything at the resort, including the surrounding Dana Point area, was Disney-like perfect, but I prefer the more rugged beauty found in nature (like in Big Sur, for example). Still, the Waldorf Astoria resort (which used to be a St. Regis) did a great job of doing what they do (i.e. catering to the rich who like this sort of thing).” – Read our full Bottom Line Review here

- Hilton Bentley Miami South Beach (95,000/$-$$)
- Hilton Marco Island (95,000/$-$$)
- “Their award availability is usually pretty good and it’s right on the beach. The rooms are in good shape even if the bones of the place are old. Many of the restaurant/bar staff have been there 20+ years which tells me they treat them pretty well.” – reader Paul
- Waldorf Astoria Orlando (90,000/$$)
Georgia
- Cloudland at McLemore Resort Lookout Mountain, Curio Collection (85,000/$)
- “Technically in Georgia, but also very close to Tenessee & Alabama as well. New build – opened 3.24 with 4 restaurants; golf course (another coming); spa is FAB. Magical mountain/sunset views & so very well done – press them for a Suite upgrade” – reader Pam
- Waldorf Astoria Atlanta Buckhead (90,000/$-$$)
- “Double upgraded, wonderful staff, honored all diamond benefits even for the second night that was booked through FHR.” – reader Daniel
Hawaii
- Grand Wailea, A Waldorf Astoria Resort (110,000/$$-$$$)
- “It’s got a fantastic pool complex, a nice beach and on the Wailea beach path/trail. That one night by itself paid for the full year’s AF on the Hilton card.” – reader James
- “I was going to be in Maui on vacation anyway and space opened up at Grand Wailea. It’s got a fantastic pool complex, a nice beach and on the Wailea beach path/trail. That one night by itself paid for the full year’s AF on the Hilton card.” – reader James
Illinois
- Waldorf Astoria Chicago (95,000/$$)
- “Fabulous hotel. We got upgrade to a suite, but base level room is also lovely. Id recommend it in the winter because every room has a beautiful fireplace. Spa, gym, pool are as nice as you can imagine!” – reader Vincent
New York
- Conrad New York Downtown (90,000/$-$$)
- “I’ve used 2 expiring FNC at the Conrad New York City Downtown (midtown was not available) and had terrible service experiences. These were a few years apart and under different management, but the lackluster stays were pretty consistent especially with the F&B in the restaurant. Follow up complaints went unanswered so took it to Hilton Corp. customer service. Midtown was unavailable so was stuck with this one. Never again…probably the most disappointing Conrad out there.” – reader matthewsf
- “I had the opposite experience, actually. Stayed at Downtown for my birthday in December. Staff was great, and the food in the bar wasn’t bad at all. Locations wasn’t ideal but it worked for us. We spent a lot of time in LES & Brooklyn, and the huge Revel credits they honored meant we had free Tesla rides everywhere, even to JFK from the hotel!” – reader veeRob
South Carolina
- Mills House Charleston, Curio Collection (80,000/$)
- Wentworth Mansion, SLH (105,000/$-$$)
- “The inn is charming, gorgeous, offers great service, and in my opinion is well deserving of its place on Travel & Leisure’s Top 15 City Hotels in the Continental U.S.” – read our full Bottom Line Review here

- Hoodoo Moab, Curio Collection (80,000/$)

- Zemi Beach House- LXR Anguilla (110,000/$$-$$$)
- “We absolutely loved Zemi Beach House. This doesn’t feel like a Hilton in the best way possible and the fact that it’s bookable on points is incredible. The service is outstanding, full of unique touches that made us feel like we were constantly being cared for. I feel like a fanboy, but I can’t recommend Zemi enough. This place is great.” – Read our full Bottom Line Review here

- Hilton Tulum Riviera Maya, All-inclusive (80,000/$$)
- “The joy of free that came from booking my family of 4 at an All-Inclusive for no additional costs/fees beyond redeeming the certificates at the Hilton Tulum Riviera Maya All-inclusive was great (and no extra points like some competitors)” – reader Brian
- Waldorf Astoria Cancun (110,000/$$)
- Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal (120,000/$$$)
- “The Waldorf Astoria Pedregal is a great property by almost any estimation. The location on the cliffside is stunning and it seems completely separate from the hubbub of Cabo San Lucas. The standard rooms are bigger than most suites, with balconies, private plunge pools and “fireplaces.” The service is exceptional. It probably goes without saying that I’d never even consider paying the cash price to stay here. However, it’s a terrific property overall and one that most folks who book with points or free night certificates will undoubtedly enjoy.” – Read our full Bottom Line Review here

- Hilton Seychelles Northolme Resort & Spa – Seychelles (95,000/$$)
- Hilton Seychelles Labriz Resort & Spa – Seychelles (90,000/$-$$)
- “Visited the Hilton Labriz in the Seychelles in Feb 2023 for 5 nights. Had a great stay, good diving, lots of hikes on the island. Diamond breakfast was excellent, restaurants were pretty good, although I think we would have been a little bored with dining options if staying longer than 5-6 nights. Seemed to be family friendly, lots of kids in the pool every day.” – reader Kristin

- Waldorf Astoria Dubai Palm Jumeirah (80,000/$)
- We stayed in the Waldorf Astoria Dubai Palm Jumeirah in Feb 2023. Nice property but a bit generic, could have been anywhere in the world. Lovely pool, attentive staff, excellent breakfast spread. It’s pretty far out on the ‘palm’ so not the best location if you are visiting other parts of Dubai.

- “We celebrated our 20th anniversary in the Maldives and ultimately decided on an 8 night stay at the Conrad Maldives for a couple of reasons – the opportunity to stay in an overwater villa without having to pay a cash upgrade for the privilege of doing so and the chance to eat at Ithaa, the hotel’s undersea restaurant.

- I’ve never found a hotel that I would never ever go back to, until I spent a few days at the WA Amsterdam. From housekeeping spraying perfume on your pillow during downturn service to the breakfast waitstaff all but bowing when greeting us, we felt like we were in a church. It was all too much. There is such a thing as being too deferential.” – reader Dar

Frequently Asked Questions
What properties can a free night certificate be used for?
The value of a free night certificate is not limited, and can be used at almost any Hilton property worldwide. However, these certificates can only be used for a standard room reward. Keep in mind that at some of the most popular properties, like the Conrad Bora Bora and Waldorf Astoria Maldives, standard room rewards can sometimes be very difficult to find…but they do exist.
Can Hilton free night certificates be used any time?
In years past, credit card free night certificates were limited to weekend night use, but that changed during the pandemic (initially on a temporary basis and then eventually it became a permanent change). Now Hilton free night certificates can be used any night of the week, so long as there’s a standard room award available. This additional flexibility makes them significantly more valuable.
What’s the best way to find standard award nights?
If you want to find periods where you can book nights at the standard award rate, Hilton makes that easy. When selecting your dates, choose any period but also select the ‘My Dates are Flexible’ check box. Then, under “special rates,” click the box that says “use points.”
On the search results screen, click ‘View Available Dates’ and the booking calendar will show you a monthly calendar displaying the nightly cost for the property that you choose. Many starting dates go for more than the standard cost per night due to Premium Room Rewards being the only option available, but you’ll be able to see the days where there is a standard room award.
How do I find Hilton free night certificates in my account?
Free night certificates can now be found on your main account dashboard when you log in at Hilton.com. You simply need to sign in and go to “My Account”. You may need to scroll down to find the section where free night certificates are displayed, including certificate numbers and expiration dates. This can be very handy as you will need the certificate number to book a reservation with your certificate.
Can I extend an expiring Hilton free night certificate?
Hilton free night certificates are valid for one year from date of issuance. The stay must be completed by the expiration date on the certificate (the expiration date is not just a “book by” date but rather a “consume by” date).
However, in 2022 we began receiving reports of some members getting extensions to free night certificates. Length of extensions have varied from a couple of weeks to a couple of months depending on the agent and situation. If you have a use in mind for your certificates beyond their current expiration dates, it may be worth calling to ask for an extension. More details can be found in this post: Got an expiring Hilton free night certificate? Maybe it can be extended (YMMV).

I got great value for my Hilton FNC at the Conrad Algarve in Portugal this past summer. Nightly rates were over 700 Euros. Included breakfast as a Diamond was incredible as well. Diamond status also allowed access to the thermal pools/rooms in the spa which we often had to ourselves during our stay despite the hotel being fairly busy in July. Such a beautiful property!
Happy holidays, Tim. Since you also previously enjoyed the Zemi brand, there is a new one opening 3.15.25 in the DR: Zemi Miches All-Inclusive Resort, Curio Collection.
It is oceanfront & something else promising, “Club Azure and bungalow guests have access to additional dining options and a rooftop pool.” Maybe like a Griffin Club or Napua Tower situations?
The resort is bookable with 100k Standard Room FNCs AND eligible for the $200 Aspire credit.
Didn’t see there but knew it was a good option, hermitage bay not a useful FNC redemption?
According to the hotel’s Instagram page, the Waldorf Astoria NYC will be taking reservations for next year starting December 10th. Hopefully, points booking will open up at the same time.
I used a couple of certs for 2 nights at Hotel TwentySeven (SLH) in Amsterdam for next Feb. I’ll be honest that I picked it over Waldorf (and other nearby options) due to it having a more expensive cash rate. But it does look like a nicer, more boutique place to stay and certainly a worthy use of the certs.
Hi FM team, always appreciate your posts – great dreams and plans. But I suggest revising the criteria to use 100K as a minimum, not 80K. The reasonable redemption value for an FNC is ~$500, so why would using it for a $400 value redemption (the cash price for 80K points) be considered among the “best” uses? Also, many 80K properties have cash prices ~$400 so factoring in the return on the spend (which could easily be 20%), using a FNC there is a downright poor use. 80K is a desperation use scenario, not something someone should plan towards. Also, the South Pacific is more typically grouped with AU/NZ, not Asia – you might consider reorganizing for ease of navigation.
None in Canada?
Stayed at the Caledonian in Edinburgh last Summer. Great location, excellent breakfast, but small rooms. The relevant change is that it is no longer a Waldorf Astoria hotel. It is now part of the Curio Collection.
I believe Waldorf Astoria Seychelles Platte Island is only 130k/ni (that’s what I paid two weeks ago) but not seeing any standard availability now
Could you highlight the hotels that are classified as a “Resort”, where you can use the Aspire $200 credit?
Resort credit can also be used at Cloudland, Lookout Mountain. Fantastic dining, golf, & spa to easily kill it
That’s a great idea!
If you are going to repost old articles you might want to at the very least remove hotels that aren’t even part of Hilton anymore. Conrad Midtown NYC is now part of Marriott.
Just stayed at the Hilton Bentley Miami South Beach for one night after a cruise and all I can say is wowI Beach is beautiful, pool is lovely, staff is wonderful, and we got upgraded to a suite. We happily spent our $200 semi-annual resort credit plus our $30 in My Way benefits on a great happy hour, dinner and breakfast in the hotel’s terrific Greek restaurant. Felt like part of the rich and famous all for the price of a $550 Aspire card!
Conrad New York Midtown is a Marriott now. So not gonna work there.
We stayed at the Hilton Mar Caribe Cancun this year. The room was excellent and we had a great stay. The food and drinks at their La Fluma steakhouse were outstanding.
