This article is sponsored by Hilton

Hilton has launched its sale for hotels in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

You can get up to 20% off participating properties when you book a weekend stay between now and 8th April 2024. You must book by 30th January 2024. 

You can see full details on the Hilton website here.

Some sale inspiration

After a busy Christmas and New Year, it could be a good time to take a break and make the most of the Hilton Sale.

If a city break in the capital appeals, then you could try The Gantry in Stratford, one of Hilton’s Curio Collection hotels.  With its boutique hotel feel and strong design aesthetic – see the exterior photo above – it would be a great base for exploring this increasingly interesting part of town. You’re also only a stone’s throw from central London courtesy of the Elizabeth line, Central Line or Jubilee Line. 

Rhys reviewed The Gantry earlier this year – click to read.

Another great option for a London city break is Lost Property St Paul’s London (also part of the Curio Collection) in the heart of the City of London. This hotel is in sight of St Paul’s Cathedral and a short walk across the Millennium Bridge to Bankside and Tate Modern.

Rhys has also reviewed Lost Property St Paul’s – click here.

Slightly further afield, you could try something a little different and head to the Hilton Heidelberg in Germany which opened last week.  Hilton Heidelberg is a short stroll away from the historic Old Town with its quaint streets, squares and ancient buildings.  Very accessible from Frankfurt airport, this would make a great, intellectually satisfying, weekend break.

An image is below and the Hilton Heidelberg website is here.

We’ll be reviewing a couple of other interesting Hilton properties – one in London and one in Berlin – before the sale ends to give you some more ideas.

Conclusion

The Hilton Sale is now live and offers savings across a range of hotels in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. There are a few terms and conditions to note before you book:

• you must book by 30th January 2024
• your stay must be taken by 8th April 2024
• full prepayment is required and rooms are not refundable
• sale rates are only available for weekend stays at participating hotels

You will save up to 20%* off the standard Best Flexible Rate, although note that these sale rooms are not refundable whereas Best Flexible Rate rooms are.

The discount is lower if you are not a Hilton Honors member, but I assume you are (!) as a HfP reader – and if not, you can join for free at the Hilton website.

* Terms and conditions apply and can be found on the sale page of Hilton’s website here.

How to earn Hilton Honors points and status from UK credit cards (April 2025)

There are various ways of earning Hilton Honors points from UK credit and debit cards.  Many cards also have generous sign-up bonuses.

There are two dedicated Hilton Honors debit cards. These are especially attractive when spending abroad due to the 0% or 0.5% FX fee, depending on card.

You also receive FREE Hilton Honors status for as long as you hold the debit cards – Gold status with the Plus card and Silver status with the basic card. This is a great reason to apply even if you rarely use it.

We reviewed the Hilton Honors Plus Debit Card here and the Hilton Honors Debit Card here.

You can apply for either card here.

SPECIAL OFFER: Until 30th April 2025, the annual fee on the basic Hilton Honors debit card is halved from £60 to £30. The sign-up bonus is also easier to earn – you need to spend £1,000 either in the UK or abroad within three months. The usual bonus rule requires you to spend the full £1,000 outside the UK.

There is another way of getting Hilton Honors status, and earning Hilton Honors points, from a payment card.

Holders of The Platinum Card from American Express receive FREE Hilton Honors Gold status for as long as they hold the card.  It also comes with Marriott Bonvoy Gold, Radisson Rewards Premium and MeliaRewards Gold status.

We reviewed American Express Platinum in detail here and you can apply here.

SPECIAL OFFER: Until 27th May 2025, the sign-up bonus on American Express Platinum is increased from 50,000 Membership Rewards points to a huge 80,000 points. Points convert 1:1 into Avios (80,000 Avios!) and many other programmes. Some people may see even higher personalised offers. Click here to apply.

You can also earn Hilton Honors points indirectly with:

• American Express Gold (20,000 bonus Amex points)
• American Express Rewards Credit Card (10,000 bonus Amex points)

SPECIAL OFFER: Until 27th May 2025, the sign-up bonus on the ‘free for a year’ American Express Preferred Rewards Gold card is increased from 20,000 Membership Rewards points to 30,000 points. Points convert 1:1 into Avios (30,000 Avios!) and many other programmes. Some people may see even higher personalised offers. Click here to apply.

and for small business owners:

• American Express Business Gold (20,000 bonus Amex points)
• American Express Business Platinum (50,000 bonus Amex points)

The conversion rate from American Express to Hilton Honors points is 1:2.
