Our Verdict

This is a somewhat interesting promotion, especially if they continue to offer an increased rate for cardholders for future promotions as it could change the value proposition for keeping certain Hilton cards. That being said for most people this promotion is just very plain, double points is never enough to get me to even consider changing bookings whereas something like the IHG accelerate offers can be. It’s hard for hotel chains to find the right balance, but I don’t think this type of promotion is it. As always you need to register, so you might as well just in case you do end up staying at a Hilton hotel.
