September 3rd is your last chance to book in the Hilton Summer Sale with decent weekend deals across Europe, Africa and Middle East.
The sale offers up to 25% off the standard Best Available Rate if you are a Hilton Honors member.
That said …. basing the ‘25% saving’ on the Best Available Bed & Breakfast rate is not exactly fair.
Sale rates are non refundable so it is cheeky to compare them to a refundable rate but these deals do usually offer a saving on the usual ‘advanced purchase’ price. Full pre-payment needs to be made at time of booking.
This rate is only available for weekend stays to 7th October 2018 and must be booked by 3rd September 2018.
Full sale details and the sale booking site are here.

How to earn Hilton Honors points and status from UK credit cards (August 2025)
There are various ways of earning Hilton Honors points from UK credit and debit cards. Many cards also have generous sign-up bonuses.
There are two dedicated Hilton Honors debit cards. These are especially attractive when spending abroad due to the 0% or 0.5% FX fee, depending on card.
You also receive FREE Hilton Honors status for as long as you hold the debit cards – Gold status with the Plus card and Silver status with the basic card. This is a great reason to apply even if you rarely use it.
We reviewed the Hilton Honors Plus Debit Card here and reviewed the Hilton Honors Debit Card here.
You can apply for either card here.
