Our Verdict
We last saw this offer back in April of last year, the standard offer is the same but without the $100 statement credit. Obviously the free weekend nights get the most value if you book expensive Hilton properties that aren’t good value on points. There is also a bonus of 50,000 bonus + $50 statement credit, although this has gone to 75,000 points recently so this offer is only worth it if you value Hilton points at under 0.2¢ each in which case the rest of the bonus is basically worthless as well so I wouldn’t bother.
If a Hilton near you sells gift cards, this should trigger the $100 credit, but purchasing them online won’t work from what I understand.
