Hilton Honors has revealed the details of its next global promotion called More Nights, More Points, which is valid for stays between 3 May and 6 September 2021.
The good news is that the new promotion starts the day after the current Points Unlimited promotion ends, leaving no gap in between.
Hilton More Nights, More Points Promo

| Hilton More Nights, More Points |
Under the More Nights, More Points promotion, registered Hilton Honors members will earn:
- 2X Hilton Honors points when staying 1 or 2 nights
- 3X Hilton Honors points when staying 3 or more nights
Registration is now open, and stays must be made between 3 May and 6 September 2021. The 2X/3X applies to the base points, which means which means youโll earn as follows:
| Points per US$1 | ||||
| Base* | Promo | Elite | Total | |
 Member |
10 | 10/20 | 0 | 20/30 |
 Silver |
10 | 10/20 | 2 | 22/32 |
 Gold |
10 | 10/20 | 8 | 28/38 |
 Diamond |
10 | 10/20 | 10 | 30/40 |
| *Stays at Tru and Home2 properties earn 5 base points per US$1, but I doubt any Singapore-based Hilton member is going to stay at one of them anytime soon | ||||
There is no cap on the maximum bonus points you can earn, and they will be credited within 6-8 weeks following your stay. The FAQ can be found here.
A Hilton point is worth about 0.5 US cents, so youโre looking at a rebate of 10-20% on your stays, depending on Honors tier and stay duration. I canโt see many staycations being more than 2 nights long, but if the Hong Kong ATB opens up, perhaps longer stays will be on the cards.
Since base points are awarded based on how much you spend, you wonโt earn anything under this promotion if you redeem Hilton points for an award night.
How does this compare to the current promotion?
The current Points Unlimited promotion offers 2,000 bonus points with every stay, and 5,000 bonus points after every 5 nights. The main advantage of this promotion is that itโs tied to stays/nights instead of money spent, so youโd earn bonus points even if you were redeeming an award night (bad idea for staycations, given all the deals weโre seeing)
If you were mostly doing 1 night staycations, the rate at which youโll be indifferent between the old and new promos is US$200 (before taxes and service charge):
- Current Promo: 2,000 bonus points per stay
- New Promo: US$200 x 1 night x 10 = 2,000 bonus points
If you were doing 2 night staycations, however, youโre likely to find the new promotion better assuming you pay at least US$100 per night (before taxes and service charge):
- Current Promo: 2,000 bonus points per stay
- New Promo: US$100 x 2 nights x 10 = 2,000 bonus points
Conclusion
A triple points offer is as good as it gets for Hilton promos, and hopefully thereโll be some overseas travel opportunities to come during this period. Take a minute to register, just in case.
Iโve already reviewed both the Hilton Singapore and Conrad Centennial Singapore, which represent all the Hilton properties currently available (HGI Serangoon continues to serve as a SHN facility). With some luck, thereโll be other Hilton properties to stay at in the second half of this year.
