Hilton just dropped their first promotion for 2022 and it’ll earn you a bonus 2500 points on every stay you make between 1/1/22 and 5/1/22. Pretty straight forward and every hotel in the chain is participating. Couple of things to be aware of
- You need to register – do so here
- Award stays count
- A stay is how many consecutive nights at one property, so no check out and back in to get 2 stays
Hilton Points unlimited 2022Terms and Conditions
Offer valid for stays completed between January 1, 2022 – May 1, 2022 (“Promotion Period”) at any hotel or resort within the Hilton Portfolio. Hilton Honors™ members must first register at HiltonHonors.com/PointsUnlimited prior to completing a stay within the Promotion Period.
Registered Hilton Honors members checking in before January 1, 2022 will receive Bonus Points for their stay if the stay is completed on or after January 1, 2022 and prior to or on May 1, 2022.
Registered Hilton Honors members will earn 2,500 Bonus Points per stay during the Promotion Period. There is no limit to the total amount of Bonus Points that may be earned during the Promotion Period with this offer. However, there are restrictions on the amount of Base Points that can be earned on a single stay at certain brands.
For examples and further details, please see the FAQ page.
This offer may be altered or terminated without notice. Bonus Points do not count toward elite tier qualification. Please allow six to eight weeks from completion of your stay for Bonus Points to appear in your account. A ‘stay’ is defined as the total number of consecutive nights spent at the same hotel, whether or not a guest checks out and checks back in again. Offer is not valid for groups and cannot be combined with other select offers. In-Room Internet Access, Fitness Center/Health Club Access and Bottled Water benefits may not be complimentary at properties with a resort charge. Space-available upgrades only available at select brands. Elite status benefits are subject to availability and vary by brand. For more information, please visit HiltonHonors.com.

There is currently an 80k offer after $4k spend in 3 months available in branch, and up to 90k after $6k spend in 6 months. I suspect some version of this will be online soon if you don’t want the hassle of going into a branch.
We keep an up to date spreadsheet that lists the best ever offers: You can find that spreadsheet here.
Historically 60k is a very, very good offer. In 2021, we saw the offer hit an all time high of 100k. Who knows if that will ever come back. .
Main Cast:
Cards that earn flexible points and should be used on the bulk of your purchases.
Supporting Cast:
Cards that earn fixed points in the currency of the airline/hotel and can not be transferred at attractive rates. These cards yield benefits that make it worth keeping, but not necessarily worth putting a lot of your everyday spend on.
