Score Free Live Nation Tix From Hilton Honors

June 26, 2009 at 10:49 AM | by Jenna | 0 Comments

Hotel loyalty programs will give you the hookup this summer — there are free night promos and buy-some-get-some-free deals flying around all over the place.

And now here is this, particularly for summer concert goers and Ziggy Marley or Katy Perry (hehe) fans: the Hilton HHonors loyalty program is givin' out free Live Nation concert tickets to members that book a stay between June 24 and September 30 of this year, and you'll score yo-self a free general admission or lawn ticket to a Live Nation concert (redeemable at participating Live Nation amphitheaters and clubs through December 31, 2009).

Some of the highlights of concerts available: 311 with Ziggy Marley & The Expendables in St. Louis; Coldplay in Wisconsin; Kid Rock & Lynyrd Skynyrd in Charlotte; Katy Perry in Houston. Eh? Any of these sound good to you?

You've gotta be a Hilton HHonors member to score the tickets, and the good news is that there's no limit to the number of tickets one member can get — but the bad news is that you only earn one ticket per stay, regardless of the number of nights.

Sign up for the promo here.

· 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.

Score 1000 Bonus Hilton Honors Points Just 'Cause It's Spring

April 10, 2009 at 8:56 AM | by Jenna | 0 Comments

Everyone wants to give you free things 'cause of the recession, we suppose. Or everyone wants to give you free things because the weather is getting nice and people are feeling generous. Well, probably the recession. But in any case: for Hilton stays between April 13 and June 30, 2009, you can earn yourself 1,000 Hilton Honors bonus points every night of your stay just by registering here.

You obviously can't qualify for the promo if you're not an HHonors member, and you won't reap the benefits of the extra-point thing unless you do the online registration thing.

But there are no blackout dates (hooray!) and you can choose to rack up your points in any of the following ways:

· Points & Points earnings style: 10 Base points and 5 bonus points for every eligible dollar spent.
· Points & Fixed Miles: 10 Base points for every eligible dollar spent and 500 miles, with the partner airline of the member’s choice.
· Points & Variable Miles: 10 Base points and 1 airline mile, with the partner airline of the member’s choice, for every eligible dollar spent.

Earn 'em and use 'em at Hilton, Conrad, Doubletree, Embassy Suites, Hampton, Hilton Garden Inn, Hilton Grand Vacations, Homewood Suites and Waldorf Astoria properties at your leisure. Happy spring!

November 25, 2008 at 6:08 PM | by juliana | 0 Comments

And the deals just keep a-coming. Hampton Inns have begun offering guests 10 percent off their available rates for weekend stays between Thursday and Sunday nights at 1,600 participating locations.

Hampton's Holiday Hit the Road Rates are good from now through January 4, 2009 and travel must be completed by January 5th. An added bonus is also thrown in to the mix because guests who book a weekend stay will get a $10 Visa gift card as well (It will be mailed to you 7-10 days after your stay.)

If you're a Hilton HHonors member, any online Hampton Inn bookings will net you 250 bonus points for stays booked and completed by January 5th too. Hampton Inn wasn't in our travel agenda over the holidays but it might be now.

Reservations can be made online at Hampton.com. Click on the "Hit the Road Rates" banner .

Hotel Loyalty Program News :: How Would You Spend a Million Hilton Points?

September 3, 2008 at 12:27 PM | by travelingmcmahans | 3 Comments

When we buy lottery tickets a couple times a year, we don't expect to actually win. It's the worth the dollar though, to dream about how we'd spend the millions.

Hilton Hhonors' new sweepstakes with National Car Rental feels a bit the same way. Register at FiveMillionReasons.com and either book a night at a Hilton property or a National Car Rental by November 30, 2008 (and stay or drive by December 15) and your name goes into a drawing.

Then, five obnoxiously lucky people will win one million Hilton Hhonors points each. So since we're all dreaming here, we have to ask: What would you do with the prize?

Hilton's Super-Secret Hotel Lab Hidden Inside the LAX Garden Inn

August 27, 2008 at 2:01 PM | by Jenna | 0 Comments

Ohhhh, we love us some good top secret info: apparently, Hilton has a hidden secret lab -- so secret that it goes by a "code name." It's tucked inside a wing of the Hilton Garden Inn El Segundo, an unassuming LAX airport hotel.

Well, we suppose it's not so secret anymore since Portfolio wrote it up this week:

The secret wing, code-named University, is Hilton's "hotel laboratory," the place were the company tests and refines its next generation of rooms. A year or two from now, the ideas, concepts, and furnishings that have been tried out in El Segundo will make their way into Hilton-brand hotels around the world, including Doubletree, Embassy Suites, Homewood, Hampton Inn, and, of course, Hilton and Hilton Garden Inn

This is sort of like the much-hyped prototype "warehouse" that Starwood used to develop its Aloft brand, except the Hilton testing grounds are a bit different since HGI guests can actually stay in them overnight.

HotelChatter's Guide to Loyalty Programs:: Hilton HHonors

October 3, 2007 at 10:40 AM | by juliana | 2 Comments

Until recently we thought hotel loyalty programs were for Account Executives rolling their business travel points into a family vacation at a bland resort every year or two. However, funny thing happened when we started investigating these programs -- we found some of them are downright useful if you know how to cut through the red tape. This series is meant as a jumping off point to full fledged discussions on each loyalty program we feature. So comment, contribute, question, and cajole here.

HotelChatter's Barbara Benham continues to look at hotel loyalty programs today with the break down of Hilton Hotels. Called Hilton HHonors, this program is good at any Hilton which includes all of their brands like Garden Inn, DoubleTree, Hampton Inn, Embassy Suites, Conrad Hotels, and Homewood Suites. We still don't know what the extra "H" is for but we do have the full program details for you after the jump.
