    Would You Use Your 2 Weekend Night Certificates at a Luxury Resort, Like the Waldorf Astoria in Boca Raton, Florida?

    Hilton says:

    Weekend night certificate is valid for twelve (12) months after the date of issuance, as noted on the certificate

    And the certificates are issued after you’ve met the minimum spending requirements on the card.

    Book or Stay Within 12 Months?

    Million Mile Secrets reader soosie commented:

    Regarding: “The certificates are valid for 12 months from the date they’re issued.”

    Does that mean you have to book the room / make the reservation within 12 months OR you have to stay at the hotel within 12 months?  Thanks for any clarification!  I would hate to mess up my travel plans.

    I called Hilton to clarify the terms.  The representative said:

    Your stay must be completed before the expiry date on the certificate
    Be Sure to Use Your Certificates (NOT Make a Booking) Before the Expiry Date!

    So you can NOT make a booking within the 12 months for a stay after the certificate expires.

    Can You Extend the Certificate Validity?

    Million Mile Secrets reader Eric wrote:

    Is there any way to extend the expiration date?  My certificates expire in June, but I’m not available to travel until July.  Is it possible to book the 2 nights for July before the certificates expire?  Or is there a way to request an extension for the certificates similar to other brands?

    Your stay must occur before the certificates expire.  And Hilton says there’s NO way to extend their validity.

    Use Them or Lose Them! There’s NO Way to Extend Your Certificates Beyond 12 Months From the Date

    The certificates (and their expiration dates) are coded into your Hilton HHonors account.  So there’s no way around the expiration date.

    For ideas on how to use your Hilton weekend night certificates, check out my posts:

    How About a Quick Weekend Getaway at the Conrad Chicago?

    There are lots of great Hilton hotel options in the US and abroad where you can use the 2 weekend night certificates from the Citi Hilton HHonors Reserve card.  Hopefully these posts spark your imagination!

    Bottom Line

    On the Citi Hilton HHonors Reserve card, you’ll earn 2 weekend nights at almost any Hilton after you spend $2,500 on purchases in the 1st 4 months of opening your account.

    Plus a $100 statement credit when you spend $100+ on your 1st Hilton stay in the 1st 3 months of opening your account.

    You’ll receive the certificates after you meet the minimum spending requirement.  And they’re valid for 12 months from the date of issue.

    There’s NO way to extend their validity.  And your stay(s) must occur before the certificates expire.

    Thanks for the questions, soosie and Eric!
