Maximise your Avios, air miles and hotel points

Last chance to book the Hilton hotels weekends sale – and other deals ending tomorrow

Links on Head for Points may support the site by paying a commission.  See here for all partner links.

Tomorrow is the last day for the Hilton sale, currently running in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.  It is valid for ALL of 2018 but only for weekend stays.

You can see full details on the Hilton website here.

Here are the headline details if you still want to sneak in a booking:

Valid for participating hotels in the UK, Middle East, Africa and Europe

Discounts are up to 25% off ‘Best Available Rate’ and ‘Best Available Rate With Breakfast’ for Hilton Honors members, and up to 20% off for non-members

Bookings are non-changeable and non-refundable (so, let’s be honest, it isn’t a full 25% discount as a non-refundable rate is usually 10% cheaper anyway)

You must book at hilton.com here 

Bookings valid for WEEKEND STAYS at any point between now and the end of 2018

Bookings must be made by 31st January 2018

Given that you can book for the whole of this year, you may be able to lock in a deal for any weddings or other events which you know are coming up.

  • JamesB says:

    The Economist offer is a very expensive way of buying avios, and more fundamentally bad deal for many UK residents unless they want a print edition. Many can read the magazine, and many other magazines and newspapers, for free anytime on their PCormobile devices via their local library online subscription service. To find details simply search your local authority name + library + RBdigital. Content varies by local authority area.

    • Lady London says:

      Thanks for the tip @JamesB. I’ve known libraries now have digital access to magazines for some time but never gotten round to getting set up. Your post is a good “prod” to do it! 🙂

      • JamesB says:

        You’re welcome. When I first found out about it I was very surprised with the wide selection available.

  • Andrew says:

    Is there ever much in the way of Hilton USA/Canada offers?

    They never seem to catch my eye.

    • Tony says:

      IIRC, in recent years there has always been a big Hilton sale for the US launched early in the year. Sadly, nothing this time round – which is presumably symptomatic of them having healthy forward bookings!

  • Alex W says:

    Can we expect 100% Heathrow rewards transfer bonus or is 50% the best it will get? I would normally transfer to Virgin, if that makes any difference.

    • JamesB says:

      If they repeat the 100% voucher offer any transfer bonus is a bad deal so unless you need those miles then better to hold onto the points.

  • Tommy says:

    OT, sorry – Can a person hold the Amex Platinum and Gold charge cards simultaneously, or is it one or the other as with the BA cards?
    Thanks.

  • Isabel Friedlander says:

    I transferred 1000 HR points to BA Avios and did not get a 50% addition. I called and was told it would happen but still nothing!!!

  • s***o says:

    OT/
    How do I refer a friend to a card that I don’t have? Is it possible?
    Currently only have the SPG but I friend wants the BA amex.

    • mark2 says:

      When they click on the link that you send them they can change to any card.
