Need Hilton Points? Take Advantage Of This Offer

If you need to top off your Hilton points, you may want to take advantage of this offer by Hilton. Through June 7th, Hilton is offering to match 100% when you purchase 5,000+ points. 

If you follow my blog, you will see there are lots of Hilton brand hotels where you only need 5,000-10,000 points per night per room. The Ramada and Hampton Inn brands even include breakfast. We stayed throughout Eastern Europe in Prague, Krakow, and Warsaw last summer at Hilton brand hotels for 5,000-10,000 points including breakfast. All the hotels were fabulous with location and breakfast. 

We are traveling to Panama City, Panama later this year. I have my eye on the Hampton Inn Panama City. Rooms cost 10,000 points per night and now that my kids are older, we need two rooms. We will be in Panama City for 5 nights before we hop on a catamaran for 4 nights. 

5 nights x 2 rooms x 10,000 points per night = 100,000 points 

5 nights x 2 rooms x $119 per night = $1190 if we paid 

We have 76,000 points right now so if we buy 13,000 points and Hilton matches those points, we will have more than we need for all 5 nights. Total cost = $130 to buy the points.
If we used the points we had, we could have stayed for 3 nights, but we would have spent $476 for the additional 2 nights.
Buying points is not always a good deal so do your math. But in this case, it's a huge savings.
