How much are these Hilton Amex credit card bonuses worth?
We calculate the value of Hilton Honors points to be about 0.63 cents per point, which means 10,000 Hilton points are worth around $63.
Using this valuation, here’s the estimated value of these bonuses:
-
Hilton Honors American Express Card: $730 (100,000 Hilton points + $100 statement credit)
-
Hilton Honors American Express Surpass® Card: $819 (130,000 Hilton points)
-
The Hilton Honors American Express Business Card: $1,102 (175,000 Hilton points)
-
Hilton Honors American Express Aspire Card: $1,102 (175,000 Hilton points)
Note that Hilton uses dynamic pricing for its bookings, which means the cost (in cash or points) of a stay can vary by date, property, type, and other factors. This can also affect your redemption value if using points, so it’s possible to get a higher or lower value than the average.
What can I do with 100,000 or more Hilton points?
A one-night luxury stay at the Waldorf Astoria Monarch Beach for 100,000 points
This stay would set you back 100,000 points or $1,414.38. That’s a redemption value of about 1.4 cents per point, which is well above the average value. In general, booking stays at high-end properties or stays at any property with a high cash price can result in more favorable redemption values.
Two nights at the Hilton Reykjavik Nordica for 130,000 points
If you’re looking for a few nights in the Icelandic capital, this stay would cost 102,966 Icelandic Króna (about $831.59 at the time of writing) or 130,000 Hilton points. That gives you a redemption value of about 0.64 cents per point, which is almost exactly the average value.
Five nights at the Hilton Garden Inn Lima Miraflores
If you like to stretch your points for more stays, consider booking something like this five-night stay at the Hilton Garden Inn Lima Miraflores in Peru. This stay would cost $853.05 or 100,000 points, for a redemption value of about 0.85 cents per point, which is slightly above average.
A standard room in this hotel typically costs 25,000 points per night, which means booking five nights should cost 125,000 points. However, the Hilton Fifth Night Free Benefit gives you every fifth night for free when booking a standard room reward stay for five or more consecutive nights.

Which Hilton Honors credit card makes sense for me?
For affordability
If you want to avoid an annual fee, we recommend the Hilton Honors American Express Card. This is the most affordable option available, and it lets you earn Hilton points directly on your eligible purchases, including 5x points at U.S. restaurants, supermarkets, and gas stations.
For a balance between cost and benefits
If you want more travel benefits without a high annual fee, consider the Hilton Honors American Express Surpass Card. This card offers complimentary Hilton Honors Gold Status and up to $50 in Hilton property statement credits each quarter (up to $200 per year). Plus, you can earn a Free Night Reward each calendar year after spending $15,000.
For business owners
The Hilton Honors American Express Business Card is the obvious choice if you want a business card that earns Hilton points, as it’s the only Hilton business card available. It’s also not a slouch in the benefits department, offering perks similar to those on the Hilton Amex Surpass, such as complimentary Hilton Honors Gold Status up to $60 in Hilton property statement credits each quarter (up to $240 per year).
For premium benefits
The Hilton Honors American Express Aspire Card is the best Hilton card for premium benefits, including complimentary Hilton Honors Diamond Status, an annual Free Night Reward each year, and up to $200 in Hilton Resorts statement credits semiannually (up to $400 per year). This card has the highest annual fee of the bunch, but no other Hilton card comes close to the Aspire in terms of total perks and benefits.
