Hilton Flash Sale and ‘1,000 Avios per weekend night’ bonus
Links on Head for Points may support the site by paying a commission. See here for all partner links.
Back in August, I wrote about a good Iberia / Hilton promotion. This was offering 1,000 bonus Avios for every weekend night you stayed – a Friday / Saturday / Sunday night would pick up 3,000 Avios! This is on top of the usual 750 Iberia Plus Avios that you would earn from your Hilton stay.
A British Airways version of this promotion has now appeared. This means that you do not need to bother about opening an Iberia Plus account and transferring the points across.
Full details can be found here. All Hilton brands are included – Hilton, Conrad, Hampton Inn, Waldorf-Astoria etc, although Hampton and Homewood Suites only offer 200 bonus points per weekend night.
The offer is valid for all weekend stays up to 16th December. You MUST register via the link above to receive the bonus.
Secondly ….
Hilton is running a three-day ‘flash sale’, starting today. It offers up to 33% off standard rates at weekends for the rest of the year, at properties across the UK, Europe and Middle East.
You take a look and book here.
Thirdly ….
Hilton is also offering a ‘Winning Weekends’ promotion for its London hotels.
You need to stay a Friday / Saturday or Saturday / Sunday (ie two nights) and will receive a 25% discount on the Best Flexible Bed & Breakfast rate. You also get a scratch card for a Hilton competition at check-in!
These rates may or may not be cheaper than the ‘Flash Sale’ rates. However, both should show automatically so it will be easy to compare.
