Our Verdict
Seems like a great deal if you’re targeted and plan to stay at a Hilton anyway, still a decent offer even if you don’t currently have a stay planned (obviously not for a mattress run, but just a discounted stay). Should stack with this spend $250 & get $50 back deal as well if you have it.
Hat tip to readers Rahul A & K/M
I got “spend $500 and get 10,000 points”
Do we know if gc would work?
Usually it does if you buy them at the front desk
Do we have any update or confirmation if this works? Can gift cards be used to pay for the base room rate or just incidentals charged to rooms?
It’s work with previous deals. Giftcards can be used for the base room rate and incidentals.
It seems that Hilton no longer sell gc at the front desk.
YMMV by location
I got “spend $500 and earn 15,000 Membership Rewards”
Does anyone know if pre-paid stays will work with this bonus? I have a stay that I made via Amex travel for Oct 25 to the 27th but would totally cancel and book direct to earn these bonus points…
can anyone tell me where the email is coming from? very frustrating to just keep looking around my packed inbox.
[email protected] is the e-mail address
thanks doc. really appreciate. found it so easily this time.
No problems
I got some offer for the Four Seasons. Spend $750, get 15,000 MR points. We stay at Hiltons often, so that’s probably why they didn’t give us the Hilton offer..
Gift card purchases work?
Would this work on Hilton gift cards and stack with that offer too?
Is this only personal platinum?
Believe so
I received spend $500 and get 10,000 MR by October 15
