Earning points as normal when you stay at a Hilton – or not earning points at all? You're doing it wrong. Hilton almost always has an ongoing promotion to earn double (or more) points on hotel stays. And its upcoming rendition is an easy one to earn bonus points on Hilton stays from January through April 2024.
Hilton Honors just unveiled its new Points Plus promo to earn more points on any and all Hilton stays from Jan. 1 through May 1. Register now, and you'll earn 2,000 bonus points for each and every Hilton stay – plus, you can get an extra 500 when you use a digital key via the Hilton app during your stay.
Note that you get that bonus for each stay, not each night. That means a three-night stay will get you the same bonus as a one-night stay. On the plus side, there's no limit to how many bonus points you can earn through this promo. And even reward nights booked using Hilton points will qualify for the bonus!
Whether you've got a Hilton stay lined up in the New Year or not, it's worth registering for this promo now to make sure you earn as many points as possible.
Have a Hilton stay through the end of the year? It's not too late to get in on Hilton's current Multiply Your Points Promo!
This isn't the most lucrative promo we've seen from Hilton, but every little bit helps. These bonus points helps offset Hilton's fairly lackluster points program, as Hilton's unpredictable and often sky-high award rates mean cashing in your Hilton Honors won't get you as far as other hotel programs.
Checking in before Jan. 1? Not a problem: So long as you check out after Jan. 1 (and before May 2), you're eligible to earn these bonus points. And again, there's no limit to how many bonus points you can earn through this promotion!
You can register now for this upcoming promo – and you should. Whether you've already got an upcoming Hilton stay booked for early 2024 or not, it's a no-brainer to register since you won't earn these bonus points if you don't sign up for the promo beforehand. Hilton stays you've already booked will still earn this bonus so long as you register before your trip.
How this Hilton Honors Promo Adds Up
Let's put this Hilton Honors promo in action with a handful of examples to show you just how much this promo can help you pile up extra Hilton Honors points.
Let's say you're just an everyday Hilton Honors member with a two-night stay at the LondonHouse Chicago, paying about $380 a night for a weekend visit in late January. If you don't register for this promo, you'd earn 7,600 Hilton Honors points – since you earn 10x points per dollar.
So as long as you register for this promo before your stay (but not necessarily before you book) and use a digital key through the Hilton app at some point during your trip, that same stay would earn:
- Base points: 10 points per dollar X $380 X 2 nights = 7,600Â Hilton Honors Points
- Promo bonus: 2,000Â Hilton Honors Points
- Digital Key bonus: 500 Hilton Honors Points
- 10,100 points total
But maybe you've got Hilton Honors Gold Status – one of our favorites among the big hotel chains – from racking up previous Hilton stays or simply having *amex platinum card*.
On that same two-night stay in Chicago, you would earn:
- Base points: 10 points per dollar X $380 X 2 nights = 7,600Â Hilton Honors Points
- Promo bonus: 2,000Â Hilton Honors Points
- Digital Key bonus: 500 Hilton Honors Points
- Status bonus: 8 bonus points per dollar X $380 X 2 nights = 6,080 Hilton Honors Points
- 16,180 points total

But the best is reserved for top-tier Hilton members who pay with a Hilton co-branded credit card, as that earns even more points for every buck you spend. So booking that same Chicago hotel using a Hilton Honors Aspire Card – which unlocks instant Hilton Diamond Status – you would earn:
- Base points: 10 points per dollar X $380 X 2 nights = 7,600Â Hilton Honors Points
- Promo bonus: 2,000Â Hilton Honors Points
- Digital Key bonus: 500 Hilton Honors Points
- Status bonus: 10 bonus points per dollar X $380 X 2 nights = 7,600Â Hilton Honors Points
- Credit card bonus:Â 14 points per dollar X $380 X 2 nights = 10,640 Hilton Honors Points
- 28,340 points total
No matter how far you can get, it's worth registering to earn some extra Hilton points from Jan. 1 through May 1.
Bottom Line
Depending on your status and what's in your wallet, this upcoming Hilton Honors promo can be a nice boost. But no matter what's in your travel plans for this winter and spring, it's easy to register for this promo to rack up Hilton points faster on any hotel stays starting Jan. 1 through May 1.
