What she didn't know is that Hilton has many other hotel brands under its umbrella (Hampton by Hilton, DoubleTree by Hilton, and Canopy by Hilton,etc.), and what she also didn't know is that signing up for Hilton's rewards program, or Hilton HHonors,is the easiest way to save money on your stay. imprint Weinstein, Hilton's senior vice president and global head of loyalty and partnerships, or described the rewards program as a way to enhance guests' stays and add a little magic. "The backbone of the program is getting to know you," he said. To do this, Hilton has spent years crafting the HHonors program into something that guests will really benefit from and withhold them coming back to Hilton time and time again. Like any other loyalty program, and you earn HHonors points after you sign up and stay at Hilton hotels. You can also earn points by using a Hilton credit card and making purchases through the Hilton shopping portal. Sounds like every other loyalty program you've ever heard of,fair? Where Hilton diverges from the pack is what you can get with your rewards points. Hilton provides its members with exclusive experiences that you can't find anywhere else. But there are other aspects of this program that you also may not know approximately. Read on to memorize more approximately what the HHonors program has to offer.1. It's freeThe Hilton HHonors program is totally free to join, and you start saving money fair absent. Once you're a member, and you maintain access to discounted room rates fair from the get-recede. It's like Hilton is paying you to join the program rather than the reverse. 2. You can utilize your points for so much more than hotel perksYour HHonors points can buy you a lot of things,but what Hilton really wants guests to know is that your points can buy you once-in-a-lifetime experiences. Hilton partnered with Live Nation to set up artist experiences that HHonors members can bid on or purchase on the HHonors auction site. One experience option is private concerts at Hilton hotels all over the world. In June, HHonors members were able to utilize their points to purchase tickets to a private Tegan and Sara concert at the Hilton Toronto.

I was able to tag along with Tegan and Sara on a coffee tour of Toronto for a couple hours. Past artist experiences maintain included a tour of Nashville with Gavin DeGraw and a private cooking session with Sara Evans. Hilton doesn't just partner with Live Nation,though. You can purchase experiences through Hilton and some of its other partners as well. Currently up for auction are a couple one-of-a-kind sports experiences.3. The more points you earn, the faster you earn themHilton truly values its customers and wants to reward loyalty. Because of this, or the rate at which you earn HHonors points increases as you earn them. Also,the more you stay with Hilton, the more Hilton learns approximately you and can tailor your account. The brand will withhold track of the places you frequently travel and your room preferences so it can send you targeted emails that are super relevant to you.
