Hilton has previously offered status matches, where they were giving away status in their program to similar tiered members from competing programs. These matches had no strings attached- once you were matched you had the status until the next requalification period.
Status matching is back, but this time it’s got a few strings attached. ย How it works this time round is that once you submit proof of membership and stay activity with one chain, Hilton approves it and instantly upgrades your status. The upgraded status lasts for 90 days, and to retain it beyond the 90 days period you nee
- 4 stays (not nights) for Gold
- 8 stays (not nights) for Diamond
The following programs can be matched to Hilton. Presumably you’d see tier for tier matching, in that Starwood Gold members would be offered Hilton Gold, Starwood Platinum would be offered Hiton Diamond etc.
Our die hard Hilton loyalist Louis has written previously about the perks of Hilton Gold membership, and I’m inclined to agree with him. I’m a Hilton Diamond but given that Hilton does not have a suite upgrade policy, I haven’t found any real incremental benefit to holding Diamond (and probably will not requalify this year)
Remember that if you can get Starwood Gold with one stay at an Asia Pacific property and a World Mastercard. You can then match this to Marriott Gold and Hilton Gold, giving you status with 3 different programs.

SQ amenities kit is going to be Lalique branded soon
so i know absolutely nothing about cosmetics and such. is this brand more atas than ferragamo?
I’ve only ever heard of Lalique in relation to their glass and crystalware – not an area I have an interest in either, so I have no idea where they stand relative to Ferragamo, unfortunately. Their brand recognition (in Singapore at least) is definitely poorer..
