Hilton HHonors points sale with 80% bonus
If you missed out purchasing Hilton HHonors points at a 100% bonus, here's a second chance, albeit with a lower - 80% - bonus on points purchased. Not the same as a 100% bonus, but not bad either, when you consider the benefits. This offer is valid for 4 days only, ie till 18 July 2016. Here's more.
Hilton HHonors normally sells points at $10 per 1000 points, or about Rs 0.68 per point at today's approximate exchange rates. With an 80% bonus, that brings the per-point cost down to Rs 0.38, which is pretty decent, actually.
Under this promotion, you can buy a maximum of 80,000 points, against which you'll receive a bonus of 64,000 points (80%) - that's 124,000 points for $800, or Rs 54,400 at today's exchange rates.
We value Hilton HHonors points at Rs 0.19 apiece, but there are a lot of hotels that you can get better value than the purchase price of Rs 0.37 under this promotion. Here are a couple of options within India:
The choice between 20,000 points (which can be purchased at Rs 7,400 under this 80% bonus promotion) versus Rs 10,000++, is clear.
Let's ignore the standard award night for 30,000 HHonors points. However, the points and money reward rate is 12,000 points + Rs 3,411. Under this promotion, those 12,000 points can be purchased at an effective price of Rs 4,440, which brings the total cost of a room night here, to Rs 7,851. That represents a clear 21% discount on the flexible paid rate of Rs 9,499++.
