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.

    Via Deals We Like, the Hilton Double Up promotion we’ve seen before is back.  And registration for the deal is now open!

    With Hilton’s Double Up promotion, you can earn double base points on stays through December 31, 2017.  That’s twice the number of base points you’d normally earn on a Hilton hotel stay!

    Nearly Every Hilton Hotel Is Participating in This Promotion!

    Hilton Double Up With Double Points Promotion

    Link:   Hilton Double Up Promotion

    When you register for the Hilton Double Up promotion, you’ll get bonus points for every Hilton stay through December 31, 2017.

    Here are the details:

    Hilton hotels include Conrad, Canopy, Curio, DoubleTree, Embassy Suites, Hampton Inn, Hilton, Hilton Garden Inn, Hilton Grand Vacations, Home2Suites, Homewood Suites, Tru, and Waldorf Astoria brand hotels.

    Is This a Good Deal?

    If you have upcoming Hilton stays, this is a nice surprise and registering is no-brainer.

    However, it’s important to note that this promotion will NOT truly double all the points you’ll earn at Hilton hotels.  Hilton will only double the number of base points you earn for your stay (10 points per $1).  So extra points you earn from holding a Hilton co-branded credit card will NOT be doubled.

    The More Expensive Your Stay, the More Bonus Hilton Points You’ll Get. Because Hilton Will Double the 10 Base Points per $1 You’d Normally Earn.

    For example, if you use your AMEX Hilton Honors card to pay for your reservation, you will earn an extra 7 points per $1 for your stay in addition to 10 base points per $1.  And if you choose Hilton Points & Points, you’ll earn another 5 points per $1.  So you’ll get 22 points per $1.

    But the Hilton Double Up Promotion will only double the 10 base points per $1 you earn.  NOT your total earnings of 22 points per $1.

    Hilton points are generally worth ~0.5 cents each towards award nights, though they can be worth much more (or less!).  So I would NOT switch my upcoming hotel stays to Hilton just for this promotion.  Because there are other valuable hotel promotions right now, like the Wyndham Masterpass promotion, IHG Accelerate, or Starwood’s American Airlines promotion.

    Bottom Line

    Hilton has released another Double Up promotion!  So you’ll get twice the number of base points you’d normally earn on all Hilton hotel stays through December 31, 2017.  And if you have Diamond Status, you’ll get an extra 10,000 Hilton points for every 10 nights, up to 50,000 bonus Hilton points.

    This is a nice bonus, but it’s NOT worth switching hotel stays to Hilton.  Because there are plenty of other, better hotel promotions available.

    That said, you should still register for the Hilton Double Up promotion, because registering only takes a few minutes and you never know when the opportunity to travel might come up!
