I have written it many times buy points to book, when there is the right bonus, and not to set aside a nest egg to use when you retire. We have published several stories of how so many users have taken advantage and bought to book immediately and save money, the most striking being that of Joseph who explained, numbers in hand, how he saved 28K euros, and then he also sent us a review of his Experience in one of the most exclusive hotels in the world.
In this article:
So here are some examples on how to Take advantage of the current bonus that gives away 100% of points and get savings which can run into the thousands and thousands.
I avoid "winning" easy with the Maldives and therefore point to other facilities around the world to give some examples starting from an expenditure of 1047€, which is what is spent today To buy 110k points and get as many for free.
Of course I remember that: if you have Silver status or higher you can have the 5th night free, if the stay is paid for with points.
LXR Roku Kyoto, a special place
LXR is the luxury brand of Hilton, along with Conrad and Waldorf Astoria. This hotel in Kyoto is considered one of the best Hilton hotels in the world, and the price as you can see is remarkable.
The basic room, because I remember it is the one you have to book with points, costs 110k points per night. That is, two nights are done with 1047€, while if paid cash you spend no less than 3000€. If you get to take advantage of the fifth free night with 2100€ in points you avoid spending 7500€ in hotels.
New Year's Eve in New York
Witnessing the ball drop in Times Square for many is one of the once in a lifetime things to do, sleeping in New York City has never been as expensive as it is at this moment in history, on New Year's Eve it is even more so. The Conrad Downtown is perfect for structure and location and is one of the top two facilities in the Big Apple for Hilton.
The two nights of New Year's Eve, including taxes, cost 1650$, The same reservation can be made by paying 180k points for the two nights, and I remind you that the award nights have no taxes or levies to pay separately with Hilton. So By buying 90K points you get as many points for free and you stay with an expense of only 860$, saving almost 50%
Five nights in paradise, spending 1/3
Polynesia and Bora Bora are on the wishlist of many travelers, one of the farthest destinations to reach from Italy and one of the most expensive ever. The Conrad Bora Bora is one of the most exclusive properties in the world, and the price is consenguent.
Sleeping 5 nights costs 480k Hilton Honors points, points that if bought now can be obtained with an expenditure of just over 2,280 euros.
The same living room paid cash has a cost of no less than €6300, but it can easily reach 2,000 euros per night.
Is this the only way to save money?
The answer is obviously no, I often use points in hotels in Milan, Paris, London and New York during peak season. For example in Milan often these establishments during fashion week, salone del mobile etc. have crazy prices, Using points I can save so much even in non-luxury facilities.
Accumulating Hilton points is easy thanks to the ability to transfer from Memebership Rewards by American Express., and until the end of November there is also a bonus of 30% that allows you to get 13 Hilton points for every 10 MR transferred.
