Interesting promotion, one that is common in other markets and that we rarely see in Italy. This offer allows a bonus of 30% if you convert Membership Rewards points into Hilton Honors points, the loyalty program of the hotel chain of the same name.
Promotion
In this article:
From August 1, 2022 to September 30, 2022 for each Membership Rewards points transfer to Hilton Honors will be eligible for a Hilton Honors points bonus equal to 30% of Membership Rewards points transferred.
American Express is not responsible for availability, housing or any other award in the Hilton Honors program. After you transfer Membership Rewards points, they are subject to the Hilton Honors program Terms and Conditions and cannot be transferred back to your Membership Rewards account. See the Hilton Honors Terms and Conditions for details.
This offer is non-transferable and cannot be combined with other offers. American Express at its sole discretion reserves the right to modify and/or terminate these offers at any time.
How to take advantage of this transfer bonus
As we always say points are good to keep in a piggy bank safe from possible devaluations, hotel chains being one of them. True, conversion rates for booking an award night may change, but in any case we are talking about different numbers than when it is an airline that devalues.
Hilton Honors points can be used to book hotels anywhere in the world. From the resorts to the Maldives to the hotels "under" the house, the cost ranges from 5 to 140 thousand points per night.
Is it an affordable offer?
As we always say a conversion is perfect if it makes the person who gets it happy, no matter if you use points for one night at the Doubletree in Trieste, one of the most beautiful Hilton facilities in Italy, or at the Conrad of New York.
This promotion is not at all common in the Italian market, and if you are planning to book an award vacation using your points, it saves 30%: no small feat. Normally the conversion rate is 1:1, this means that by transferring 10 thousand Membership Rewards points you get as many Hilton Honors points, with this promotion the balance is 1:1.3 so the same 10 thousand MR points will generate as many as 13 thousand Hilton Honors points.
For example, sleeping one night at the Milan Doubletree has an average cost of 150/175€, in points the average cost is about 18 thousand, this means that by transferring 15 thousand MR points you will be able to book a night in this hotel, a very interesting conversion rate.
More ways to earn Hilton Honors points
The best way is to be enrolled in the loyalty program and stay at facilities scattered around the world. Important is to take advantage of the ongoing promotions that allow you to accumulate bonus points, even tens of thousands for each reservation. There is also the possibility of buy Hilton Honors points taking advantage of rich bonuses as at this time that allows 2 points for every point purchased.
The technique of buying points must be used with utmost care, the strategy must be clear and the target immediately bookable. By doing so, it is possible to save even thousands with a single booking.
