We are an independent publisher. Our reporters create honest, accurate, and objective content to help you make decisions. To support our work, we are paid for providing advertising services. Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Next” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. The compensation we receive and other factors, such as your location, may impact what ads and links appear on our site, and how, where, and in what order ads and links appear. While we strive to provide a wide range of offers, our site does not include information about every product or service that may be available to you. We strive to keep our information accurate and up-to-date, but some information may not be current. So, your actual offer terms from an advertiser may be different than the offer terms on this site. And the advertised offers may be subject to additional terms and conditions of the advertiser. All information is presented without any warranty or guarantee to you.

This page may include: credit card ads that we may be paid for (“advertiser listing”); and general information about credit card products (“editorial content”). Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Apply Now” button or “Learn More” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. When you click on that hyperlink or button, you may be directed to the credit card issuer’s website where you can review the terms and conditions for your selected offer. Each advertiser is responsible for the accuracy and availability of its ad offer details, but we attempt to verify those offer details. We have partnerships with advertisers such as Brex, Capital One, Chase, Citi, Wells Fargo and Discover. We also include editorial content to educate consumers about financial products and services. Some of that content may also contain ads, including links to advertisers’ sites, and we may be paid on those ads or links.

Hilton’s Best Rate Guarantee Just Got a Big Upgrade!

    This is fantastic news for all those loyal Hilton fans out there.  And a reason folks who prefer other hotel chains might consider staying at Hilton hotels more often!

    With Hilton’s new (and improved!) price match guarantee, recently called their “best rate guarantee,” you can submit a price match claim before you even book.  And on top of that, you’ll get 25% off each night you found at a lower price if your claim is accepted.

    An Actual Improvement to a Hotel Policy Is Something Out of the Blue!

    Being able to submit your claim before booking could save you lots of hassle.  And getting a 25% discount on the cheaper rate is also a huge perk!  Plus, you can submit a claim up to 24 hours after making your reservation.

    You can submit your price match guarantee claim online or by phone at 800-445-8667.  If you submit it online, Hilton will get back to you within 24 hours.  Claims made by phone will be handled instantly.  This even applies to claims made on same-day bookings.

    What Types of Bookings Qualify for the Price Match Guarantee?

    Here are the criteria the lower price must fulfill in order to qualify for a price match:

    You can read the full terms and conditions of Hilton’s price match guarantee here.

    What Does This Mean for You?

    The great thing about this type of price match guarantee is you can rest assured you’re getting the best deal when booking directly through Hilton.  And that way, you’ll also earn points and elite benefits, which usually aren’t available if you book a room through a third-party site like Expedia or Orbitz.

    And don’t forget, all 4 AMEX Hilton cards are currently offering increased welcome bonuses that are worth loads of savings on your next Hilton stay!  I was recently approved for The Hilton Honors American Express Business Card and plan to use the welcome bonus for a trip to Hawaii!

    What do you think of Hilton’s new policy?  I think it’s a great way to instill trust in travelers.
