Hilton has returned with a new sale that’s giving members a 100% bonus when buying Hilton Honors points through March 12, 2024. That means you can buy Hilton Honors points for 0.5cpp with this sale. Hilton usually limits members to 80K points purchased per year before the bonus, but they frequently expand on that, and in this current sale you can buy up to 160K before the bonus.

The Deal

Key Terms

  • Points purchased do not count towards elite tier qualification.
  • Points.com and Hilton Honors reserve the right to terminate bonus promotions at any time.
  • All purchases must be made through the Purchase page on HiltonHonors.com.
  • The 100% Points bonus campaign is available for purchases of 6,000 or more Points made between January 23, 2024, at 12:00am ET and March 12, 2024, at 11:59pm ET.
  • Members may purchase a maximum of 160,000 points per calendar year during this promotion period.
  • All purchases are non-refundable.
  • Offer is subject to change.
  • Offer cannot be combined with any other offer.
  • Points will be posted to the recipients Hilton Honors account within 48 hours of the completed transaction.

Best Uses for Hilton Points

  • 5th night free. Use points to book 5 nights for the price of 4. This benefit is valid on longer stays, so if staying 10 nights you’ll get both the 5th and 10th nights free. Hilton status is required to take advantage of this benefit, but you can get that with the fee-free Hilton credit card.
  • Save money on low category hotels. Hilton hotel awards start at 5,000 points per night, but those can be very difficult to find. 10,000 and 15,000 point properties are more common.  These would cost $50 or $75 when booked with purchased points or less if using the 5th night free benefit.
  • Stay at top tier properties for less. Most of Hilton’s top tier properties top-out at 95,000 points per night for a standard room, although some go as high as 120,000 points. With this promotion, 95,000 points would cost you $475. That’s not bad for top tier hotels which often cost $800 or more.
  • Pool points with up to 10 other members. Hilton allows members to create a pool with up to 10 people to share points back and forth. This makes the effective purchase limit much higher when combining forces with other members.

Things to Know About Hilton Points

  • When you book nights with points, you will not earn points for the stay unless Hilton is running a promotion that awards bonus points per night/stay which includes award nights.
  • Most hotel taxes are not charged on award stays, so this can make the value of buying points even better. Arguably, this factor and the one above roughly cancel each other out.
  • Resort and destination fees are waived on award stays. This alone can make it worthwhile to use points instead of cash for your bookings.
