Hotel promotions and codes are elusive as ever. For those that are deal hunters and perhaps risk takers as well, these are a complete list of Hilton corporate codes and discount codes that you can use for your next stay.

Hilton Corporate Codes

Conrad Maldives

Hilton works with a number of large companies to offer their employees discounts for business or leisure vacation travel.

This is for those making hotel bookings with cash as opposed to how traditionally we’ve focused on how to smartly spend your points such as the best Hilton Category 1 hotels and saving up for aspirational resort stays at the Conrad Maldives which we were lucky to stay at.

Not a fan of Hilton but loyal to another brand? Don’t worry, I have you covered with Marriott corporate codes Hyatt corporate codes, discounts for Best Western, Choice Hotels corp codes, and IHG codes.

Read next: If you want to see them all together, we have a compilation of all and the best hotel corporate codes.

Discount Codes For Everyone

There are luckily other ways to save money by using alternative Hilton coupon codes that you might be eligible for. Here’s a look at a few special programs.

Hilton Honors Discount

It’s always better to be a Hilton Honors members. We’ve found that the member rates are often very good.

In some cases, these Honors discounts can be better than any preferred rate via discount code.

Special Promotions

Every quarter or so Hilton rolls out new promotions. For instance, right now there’s one called “Dream Away” and ironically the discount they’re offering is better than some of those corporate codes.

A promotion like this is positioned like this: “Hilton Honors members get up to 20% off in the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa and up to 30% off in Asia.”

Typically, promotions are geared towards Hilton Honors members so it’s a no brainer to sign up if you haven’t already yet.

Here are a few other promo codes that we’re aware of (may or may not still be active):

  • Family Fun Promo Code – Use PBFFP1 or FP to get breakfast for 4, premium wifi and late checkout at participating Hilton Portfolio hotels worldwide.
  • Leisure Escape Promo Code – Use promo code RPTVS1 or TVS and Get $50 daily credit for every night of your stay, at participating Hilton Portfolio hotels worldwide. Use your on-property credit for dining, shopping, relaxing, and more!
  • Essential Extras Promo Code – Use promo code HPWHE2 or H1W and Book your stay with Essential Extras, including daily breakfast, premium WiFi and late check-out (subject to availability), at participating Hilton Portfolio hotels worldwide!
  • Long Weekend Promo Code – Use promo code PGLWP1 or LWP and Stay 3 nights & Save up to 50% on Sundays at participating Hilton Portfolio hotels worldwide.

Check the latest Hilton deals

The first place you should always look to see what’s happening is the page below.

AAA, CAA, AARP, And Senior Discounts

Hilton allows you to apply and check discounts if you’re a AAA member. There are also discounts for AARP members, CAA, and if you’re a senior and don’t belong to any association.

Members save up to 15% and earn Honors points when booking with AAA or CAA rates. This also works internationally although the discount seems to reduce down to 10% off.

The AARP discount is 10%.

The senior discount rate is not as good at 5% off.

These are easy to check because in the reservation system, there are checkboxes explicitly for these under “Special Rates”.

Live in the US and not a member of AARP? It only costs $12 for your first year but $16/year normally. As long as you’re 50 and older, you purchase AARP membership. You can save 10% off the best available rate with Hilton.

Join AAA today

If you’re not a member of the auto club, AAA, sign up to access instant discounts.

Hilton For Companies

Hilton has several programs for businesses and corporations. The first is for prmiarily small businesses and the other is for larger ones.

Hilton for Business

Hilton Honors also has a new Hilton for Business program which is great for small business owners.

At the core of the program is access to a Hilton for Business rate. This provides a discount of up to 18% off.

We love this because it’s very easy to sign up.

There are also opportunities for bonus points but we’ll get into that a bit further below.

Hilton Negotiated Rates

If you work for a company that has access to Hilton negotiated rates for business and leisure travel, you’ll find it listed in the table below.

These are official landing pages and saves the effort of needing to remember codes for the company you work for.

These are intended to be used for employees of these companies only.

MVP Program

The MVP code program was designed to entice people travelling with sports teams or for sporting events. This casts a pretty wide net and as a result, anyone more-or-less was able to use the code.

The MVP code can save you up to 20% off.

Here is who this program was intended for:

As a valued, coach, leader or participant of group travel for sports, we invite you to receive a discount off the best available rate at participating hotels in the Hilton portfolio. Find hotels above to get your team’s next trip started.

Please note: You must be an athletic administrator, athlete, or affiliated with a sports entity, sports-related company, sports group or event to be eligible. You will be asked to show credentials, such as an official business card designated with your team logo, etc.

Ways to Maximize Your Hilton Honors Membership

doubletree by hilton somerset in new jersey's hotel driveway

Beyond using discount codes, there are other tips and tricks you should know about Hilton Honors whether it be shopping around, status, elite nights, or earning more poitns.

Hilton Price Matching

Lastly, don’t forget that Hilton has their new Price Match Guarantee program.

If you find a better rate anywhere else including OTA’s like Booking.com for the same accommodation and terms at any point before your reservation is made or up to 24 hours after making your reservation through one of the official Hilton booking channels, they will honor the lower price and take an additional 25% off the room rate for each night of your stay.

Acceptable sites include:

The submission process is through an online claim form.

How To Get Gold Status

While you won’t be able to get discounted rates with status, we know that many of you would love to have Hilton Honors Gold status to be able to get the perk of free breakfast at some properties.

Currently, Gold status isn’t easy to get without obtaining it through stays but here’s a compilation of alternative methods:

  • American Express Canadian Platinum Card – Whether you’re in Canada or the US, this card will give you instant Gold status for as long as you’re a cardholder.
  • Additional American Express cards – Signing up for these American Express US cards will also get you Gold status right away: Platinum Card, Business Platinum Card, Business Gold Card, Hilton Honors Surpass Card, and Hilton Honors Business Card
  • Status challenge – If you have premium status with Marriott, IHG, Hyatt, Best Western, and Choice, you can try Hilton Honors Gold status for 90 days.
  • Fast track to Gold – If you work for a company that is eligible, you can participate in a fast track where you can get Gold status for 90 days and if you stay 5 nights during that period, you get Gold Status for almost 2 years!
  • Gifting Gold – If you have a friend or family member that has stayed 60 nights with Hilton, they’ll have the ability to gift someone Gold status.
  • Status matching – If you have Gold-equivalent status with another hotel program, you can complete a status match challenge to keep your status until March of the following year (currently March 31, 2028). This requires you to complete 6 nights within 90 days (reduced from 8).

Gold status is definitely worth having so if you don’t have status, hopefully these will help you get over the top!

How To Get Diamond Status

With Hilton Honors Gold Status, there are a number of ways to obtain it, whether it’s through a credit card or special campaign. Diamond Status on the other hand, is a lot harder.

Here are a few tried and true ways to get Diamond Status:

  • Sign up for the Amex Aspire – The sure-fire way to get Diamond status is by signing up for the Hilton Honors American Express Aspire Card. The annual fee is $550 USD but it may be worth it if you have big trips in Hilton properties coming up.
  • Fast track to Diamond – If you work for a company that is eligible, you can participate in a fast track where you can get trial Gold status for 90 days and if you stay 10 nights during that period, you get Diamond Status for almost 2 years!
  • Gifting Diamond – If you have a friend or family member that has stayed 100+ nights with Hilton, they’ll be able to gift someone Diamond status.
  • Status matching – If you have Diamond-equivalent status with another hotel program, you can complete a status match challenge to keep your status until March of the following year (currently March 31, 2028). This requires you to complete 12 nights within 90 days (reduced from 14).

How To Get More Elite Nights

Elite nights are what count towards building up your status.

  • Silver Status – 10 nights, 4 stays, or earn 25,000 Base Points
  • Gold Status – 40 nights, 20 stays, or earn 75,000 Base Points
  • Diamond Status – 60 nights, 30 stays, or earn 120,000 Base Points

Whether you’re slowing moving your way up throughout the year or if you are on the cusp of achieving the next tier in status, and looking for a push, there’s an interesting new way to accelerate this.

How to Get More Hilton Honors Points

Of course, the most obvious way is to stay but if you’re not travelling for business, that’s not practical for most.

There are a few other ways that most people are building up their cache of Hilton Honors Points that we’ll quickly lay out below.

Sign up for Hilton-branded credit cards

In the US, Hilton has their own branded cards and these are the only ones that can earn Hilton Honors points directly. Each has its own sign up bonuses which are quite significant and much faster to get started than earning points the traditional way through stays.

  • Hilton Honors American Express Card
  • Hilton Honors American Express Surpass Card
  • Hilton Honors American Express Aspire Card
  • Hilton Honors American Express Business Card

There are unfortunately no Hilton Honors cards in Canada.

PRO TIP: Sign up for these cards when you know you have big purchases ahead so you can make the minimum spend.

Hilton is partnered with Lyft and you can earn points for every Lyft ride (3 points per $1 spent).

Currently, you can also earn a bonus 1,500 Hilton Honors points by linking both accounts and taking 5 rides by September 3, 2024. These rides must be completed within the US or Canada.

We’ve done this and while it’s not a lot of points, it’s easy to do and one of those “set it and forget it” type of things.

Earn with Delta

Once in awhile, Hilton will also partner with airlines such as Delta for promotions such as this year’s where you can earn up to 6,000 Hilton Honors Bonus Points when you complete a premium flight by September 19, 2024.

Convert Points From Other Programs

If you collect points in American Express’ Membership Rewards (MR Points), you can transfer points 2:1 to Hilton Honors. This means that for every 1 Membership Reward point, you get 2 Hilton Honors points.

Cards that earn Membership Rewards points are:

  • Amex EveryDay Credit Card
  • Amex Green Card
  • Amex Gold Card
  • Amex Platinum Card

Is it worth it? Most will say no because MR Points are worth more when you convert them to airline points. That said, because there aren’t many options to top up Hilton Honors, it may be worth it.

Membership Rewards points are worth 2.8 cents while Hilton points are only worth 0.5 cents. Even with a 2:1 ratio, you’re losing more than half the value of MR Points.

PRO TIP: If you are converting, wait for transfer bonuses. As an example, this year they had a 40% bonus of MR Points to Hilton.

The other option in the US are through Bilt Rewards. They are its own brand of credit cards and a newer competitor in the space, hoping to give Amex and Chase a run for their money.

They run their own points program and are valued at 1.8 cents per point. Currently, you can transfer points to Hilton Honors 1:1. So far, we haven’t seen any transfer bonuses.

Buy Points

Loyalty programs are really pushing this option. Broadly, this isn’t the best value but we think it’s a good option in a pinch.

You can buy points in increments of 1,000 points, starting with 5,000 points and up to a maximum of 160,000 points. The price is $10 USD for 1,000 points (1 cent each). Your annual purchase limit is 160,000 Hilton Honors points.

PRO TIP: When purchasing points, wait for their promotions (often active). The best offer is when they offer a 100% bonus (0.5 cents each). This means that you double up so if you purchase 160,000 points, you get 320,000 points for $1,600 USD. They will sometimes also extend the limit to triple as well (up to 240,000).

While some people will say it isn’t worth it, there are certainly times where it’s worth doing. Large swaths of Hilton Honors points don’t often come easy and if you’re close to a big milestone, we say “go for it!”. We did this recently to be able to book a reward stay at the Conrad Maldives for a second time in the near future.

Hilton For Business

If you own a business or you’re an employee of a business, sign up for Hilton for Business. It’s so easy to do and in addition to getting access to up to 18% off automatically, there are also opportunities for bonus points

These are benefits for the company that don’t take away from the employee’s ability to earn. These include:

  • Company registration – The company earns 7,500 points after completing the first stay on the Hilton for Business rate.
  • Milestone bonus – For every 10 nights stayed on the Hilton for Business rate, the company will earn 5,000 Hilton Honors Points for your organization.
  • Add employees offer – Hilton seems to be really pushing the program and currently, now through August 1, 2025, invite your team and earn 2,000 bonus points for every employee added, up to 5 employees.
  • Stay offer – The other one they’re pushing this year is if you book Hilton for Business rates, the business will earn 5,000 bonus points per stay, up to 3 stays, through August 27, 2025.

Overall, the beauty of this program is that it doesn’t replace what an employee is already doing. They get the same benefits of Hilton Honors but they’ll have access to theHilton for Business rate which is up to 18% off.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you earn Hilton Honors points when using any of these codes?

Yes, you will earn Hilton Honors points.

What happens if you’re caught using a corporate code without proper ID?

They will charge you the walk-in rate.

Are the use of these codes eligible for Hilton Honors benefits?

Yes, if you’re eligible, you can receive upgrades and other perks as a member.

Do all Hilton brands take corporate codes?

Yes, all of the Hilton umbrella of brands take corporate codes, however the discount can vary quite drastically from one to the other. In some instances, a code can lead to 0 discount or can cause the price to go up.

Can you collect Hilton Honors bonus points if using corporate codes?

Yes, you are eligible for any offers you may have signed up for as stays using Hilton corporate codes count as regular stays.

Can you enter corporate codes with the Hilton mobile app?

Yes, the Hilton app has the capability of entering corporate codes. This can be found under “Special rates” just like it is on the desktop website.

Does Hilton have an AARP discount?

Yes, AARP members are eligible to save 10%.

How come no rooms are available for my dates at a Hilton hotel?

It’s possible that you’re looking into a date so far out in the future that they haven’t released availability for it yet. Unlike Marriott, Hilton releases their dates roughly 9 months ahead (not even a full year) so it’s possible that’s what you’re seeing. Otherwise, it’s also possible that rooms are fully sold out for that day.

Travel Resources For Your Next Trip

If you’re in the process of planning your trip and putting together your itinerary, these are genuinely the best resources that the Going Awesome Places team stands by 100%.
Credit Cards

Don’t get burned by hidden fees on top of terrible exchange rates. When we travel now, we use the Wise Card. Simply load it with the currency you need before you go and use it as a regular VISA or their digital wallet card. Use their free app to track how much you have and top up when you need to.

Flights

In our opinion, of all the booking search engines, Skyscanner is the most helpful and easy to use thanks to their Everywhere feature. Kayak is also another that’s we will often check.

Car Rental

If you’re looking to save money, these car rental coupon codes will be a true game-changer. Otherwise, DiscoverCars and Booking’s car rental platform are great places to start.

Rideshare

You probably already have accounts but if you don’t, for new Lyft users, use code WILLIAM4825 to get 50% off your first 2 rides (max $10 per ride). Offer valid for 14 days after you take your first ride. For new Uber users, use code cbh4j6plxt8p for the same offer except it’s valid for 30 days.

Airport Parking

You’ll need a spot to leave your car at the airport so why not book a spot at a discount. Use code AWESOME7 to get at least $5 off at Airport Parking Reservations or Park Sleep Fly packages.

eSIM

eSIM: This is our go-to way of staying connected.  Below are the discounts we have acquired for our readers.

  • AmigoSIM – Use GOINGAWESOMEPLACES to save 25% off. Code is re-useable.
  • Gigsky – Use TANG149 to get $3 USD when you sign up, then use code GOINGAWESOME to save 20% on all eSIM orders.
  • Airalo – Use referral code WILLIA9500 to get $3 USD credit on your first purchase.
  • KnowRoaming – Use code GAP10 to save 10%.
  • AloSIM – Use code GOINGAWESOMEPLACES to save 15%.
  • UbigiAWESOME10 to save 10% on your first order.
  • Holafly – Use code GOINGAWESOMEPLACES to save 5%.
  • Roamless – Use code AWESOME20 to save 20.
  • Saily – Use code GAP15 to save 15%.

Make sure to read our article on breaking down the cheapest eSIMs for travel to learn more.

Wifi Hotspot

We’ve been a huge fan of wifi hotspot devices such as PokeFi (use code GAP24300) because their rates are are hard to beat and it works globally. Solis is another that we recommend. Pros are that you can share the wifi with your whole group but cons are that you have to invest in a device and you have to charge it every night.

Hotels

Our go-to is Booking.com because they have the best inventory of properties including hotels and B&Bs plus they have their Genius tier discounts. Expedia is also worth using especially with their One Key rewards program which is basically like cash. The exception is Asia where Agoda always has the best prices. Always do a quick check on TripAdvisor as well.

Vacation Rentals

Your first instinct will be to go to Airbnb but we always recommend checking VRBO as well if you’re looking for a vacation rental (now eligible for One Key).

Tours and Activities

When planning our trips, we always check both Viator and GetYourGuide to at least see what’s out there in the destination that we’re going to. They often have different offerings and prices so check both.

Travel Insurance

Learn how to buy the best travel insurance for you. This isn’t something you want to travel without.

  • HeyMondo – Popular insurance provider for frequent travelers and comes with great coverage and special perks. By booking through our link to get a 5% discount!
  • RATESDOTCA – Search engine Canadians looking for the cheapest insurance including multi-trip annual policies.
  • SafetyWing – A perfect fit for long-term nomads.
  • Medjet – Global air medical transportation.
  • InsureMyTrip – Best for seniors, families, and those with pre-existing conditions.

The Discussion

  1. When booking you only get Hilton Honors points for your room when you book directly with Hilton through Hilton’s website or app. If you book through a 3rd party you forfeit the points for the room. For either booking you would still earn points for purchases at hotel owned outlets such as restaurants, gift shops, and spas. Some people who book direct with Hilton through the website get sidetracked though ads and then accidently book through a 3rd party. So as all purchases on internet, buyer be aware. Best to book through the Hilton Honors app, no sidetracting, you can put in your discount preferences and it will show lowest rates 1st, you get your HHonors membership benefits, can use digital key, and very importantly if there are any issues you can work directly with Hilton to resolve. If you travel much, AAA is highly recommended for your arsenal of codes as it will quickly pay for itself and can be set as one of the preferences in the app. Through the app you have a slider feature and can choose the amount of points and money. It is highly recommended that you save your points and use to book 100% in points at locations that charge a resort fee. When booking 100% in points the resort fee is waived saving substantially. If you only have enough points for part of the stay, then book as 2 reservations, one as points only, the 2nd as cash. Just make sure both reservations are for the exact same room type or you may have to switch rooms during your stay. If not sure call the hotel Front Desk directly and verify.

  2. If you use a corporate account and you have the option of hassle free check in where they send you a key code and room number, do you think staff would bother in asking for a ID or business card?

    1. There’s probably less likelihood of them checking for ID since you will have your digital key already to get into your room.

  3. Do you have the Hilton Code for Toronto Dominion Bank (aka TD Bank) available? I can’t fimd it anywhere, but I travel with TD often. Our travel site is a pain to use and it would be easier if I could just book direct using the code myself…

    1. Hey Johnny, I haven’t found one for TD Bank unfortunately. That doesn’t mean they don’t have one but would have to ask someone that works there to share.

    2. Former colleague and worked with the travel team. You have to book on there travel website for the “td rates”. They no longer had published discount codes. Better off using Blackstone or Accenture codes if you want to book offline. Most of the savings came in the form of rebates so they could fund the corporate jet travel team for Bharat. :)

      Happy travels – Miss the Downtown Toronto Hilton and drinks at King Taps!
