Why This Card is for You?

Benifits

Cardholders get automatic Silver status, a nice perk for a no-annual-fee card. Silver elite members get a fifth night free and waived resort fees on reward stays. You can rack up Hilton Honors points, earning seven points per dollar spent with Hilton, five points per dollar at U.S. restaurants, U.S. supermarkets, and U.S. gas stations, and three points per dollar on all other purchases. The 100,000-point welcome offer has a low spending threshold — just $2,000 within the first six months.

Pros

  • No annual fee
  • Complimentary Hilton Honors Silver status
  • Earns up to seven points per dollar
  • Earn a 100,000-point bonus when you spend $2,000 in the first six months
  • Cons

  • Other Hilton cards offer better value if you’re a loyalist
  • Booking a free night with Hilton is the only good redemption option
  • Summary

    The Hilton Honors card offers a generous number of bonus points on hotel and everyday purchases; but because Hilton’s Honors points aren’t worth as much as the average credit card rewards point, cardholders need a larger number of points to purchase rewards-funded travel.
