Hilton HHonors Really, Really Wants You to Stay at Hiltons This Summer

May 20, 2009 at 11:09 AM | by Jenna | 0 Comments

It's summer (well, almost). You should be traveling. And it seems that this summer, Hilton is really, really pushing for you to be staying exclusively at Hilton properties — especially (holla!) if you're a Hilton HHonors member.

A roundup of the HHonors bonus deals happenin' this summer:

· For the luxe-lovers: you will score 10,000 (ten thousand, yes) HHonors bonus points for a three-night (or more) stay at a Conrad or Waldorf Astoria Collection hotel, valid until September 30th.

· You can knock $100 off roundtrip airfare on "British Airways flights to mainline destinations worldwide between now and June 30, 2009" just cause you're an HHonors member and you're loved.

Score $10K and Free Stays With the HHonors Online Race

March 9, 2009 at 1:28 PM | by Jenna | 0 Comments

American Express has just teamed up with Hilton to kick off an "interactive online race" — which is kind of like the Amazing Race except involving virtual travel instead of actual travel — that can result in some seriously impressive Hilton prizes for you (and six other people!)

The "Advance Your World Challenge" launched on March 1st and is meant to promote the new Hilton HHonors American Express Surpass Card — and it seems to promote some online competition too:

The Challenge is made up of seven thrilling race courses around the globe that participants navigate using iconic vehicles in each destination, including a taxi cab in New York City, a motorcycle in Tokyo, a gondola in Venice, and a paraglider in Costa Rica. As online world travelers proceed through a course, they collect randomly placed icons that represent and provide information about the benefits of the Hilton HHonors Card from American Express [...] Collecting an icon can help to improve a player’s race time by allowing the player to go faster, providing invincibility to obstacles, or even subtracting from the user’s overall final time.

In Which We Do Our Holiday Shopping at the HHonors Rewards Store

November 21, 2008 at 1:09 PM | by Jenna | 4 Comments

Have you checked out the Hilton Honors Rewards store lately? Because we just popped in for the first time and no joke: if we had enough HHonors Points racked up, we could do all of our holiday shopping here. Um, we definitely don't have enough points to do so (and that HDTV for pops would set us back over a million points), but let's forget about that for a moment and allow us to take you on a guided tour through the presents we would buy for everyone.

Andy Warhol Surfaces on the Lower East Side

November 4, 2008 at 5:50 PM | by Jenna | 0 Comments

There's tons of hotel news flying around this week and we don't have time to give each and every story the love and attention it may deserve, so you will have to settle for some news briefs.

· Andy Warhol is on His Way to the LES: Curbed scored some shots of the Thompson LES pool, which is developing nicely and looks like it just may be finished by the time the weather climbs above 70 in NYC again. [Curbed]

· Detroit Hotel Gets a New look: The 84-year-old Westin Book Cadillac Hotel in Detroit just got a huge makeover and restoration to the tune of $200 million. [NY Times]

· Eminem Gives the Greenwich Hotel What it Deserves: In NYC to promote his new book, rapper Eminem stayed at the Greenwich Hotel and was a total diva to the staff -- they were "under no circumstances allowed to make eye contact with him and absolutely not to speak to him at all." Ha. [Freep]

· Hilton Messed with the Wrong Dude: A Hilton HHonors member (and frequent business traveler) was told that, though there were rooms available at a Washington, D.C. Hilton, he couldn't check in at all on the day he wanted to come because the front desk agents would be busy with a big group. He then proceeded to write into the NY Times. Yup. [NY Times]

· Anne Hathaway at the W French Quarter?: We're 99% sure this (sorta unflattering) photo of Anne Hathaway was snapped at the W French Quarter in New Orleans. [Perez Hilton]

So, hypothetically, let's just say you've been eyeing a $500.00 dress from Bloomingdales for a while. Or maybe, let's say, you're wanting to buy Dad one of those life-changing gadgets from Brookstone for Father's Day but you're not sure you can rationalize spending  $100.00 on something that appears to be an umbrella for his grill.

Now you can feel a bit less guilty when you make said purchases because you can earn Hilton Honors points for every dollar spent.
