Hilton Honors Card

New Offer: Earn 70,000 Hilton Honors Bonus Points plus a Free Night Reward after you spend $1,000 in purchases on the Hilton Honors card in the first 3 months of card membership.

The first thing to note here is that this offer has an end date of March 31, 2022, which suggests that this new offer could just be temporary.

Despite a smaller bonus than what has previously been offered, 70,000 points is still generous. That’s enough to get you 1 night at some of the Hilton properties we value highest for redemptions.

Not only that, but you can use your free night reward at over 6,000 Hilton hotels and resorts around the world.

A slight reduction in points in return for a free night reward is a trade-off to get excited about.

Final Thoughts

A free night reward is one of the most valuable perks associated with the Hilton Honors program as it can have a value of over $2,000 — depending on where you redeem it.

Despite these new welcome bonuses offering a reduced number of bonus points earned when signing up to either the Hilton Honors card or Hilton Business Amex card, it’s a generous trade-off given the value of the free night reward that has replaced the extra points.
