Another Hilton Devaluation
Hilton has increased award prices at many properties. This devaluation seemed to have kicked off on December 20, which some Hilton hotels jumping up in price by as much as 25%.
The Hilton Honors program does not have an award chart, so Hilton increased prices without any official announcement to members.
Most of the affected properties have seen a price increase between 5,000 and 20,000 Hilton Honors points. This follows a devaluation for SLH awards, just less than a month ago.
Here are some examples of properties which have gone up in price:
Old Price | New Price | |
Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal | 120,000 | 140,000 |
Waldorf Astoria Grand Wailea | 110,000 | 120,000 |
Waldorf Astoria Cancun | 100,000 | 110,000 |
Hotel del Coronado | 95,000 | 110,000 |
Conrad Tokyo | 95,000 | 100,000 |
Conrad Osaka | 95,000 | 100,000 |
Hilton Aruba Caribbean Resort & Casino | 80,000 | 100,000 |
Waldorf Astoria Las Vegas | 85,000 | 95,000 |
Hilton Waikoloa Village | 75,000 | 80,000 |
Hilton London Bankside | 70,000 | 75,000 |
Hilton Molino Stucky | 70,000 | 75,000 |
Conrad Hong Kong | 70,000 | 75,000 |
Besides award pricing going up at many properties, we’re also seeing a new phenomenon for Standard Room Reward pricing. These standard awards now have variable pricing, instead of a fixed priced.
Here’s an example at Conrad New York Downtown. Standard Room Reward pricing varies between 84,000, 90,000 and 95,000 points per night.
Free Night Rewards can still be used to book whenever a Standard Room Reward is available.
