Through May 4, 2016, the AMEX Hilton and Hilton Surpass Cards are offering their highest bonuses ever!
You can earn 100,000 Hilton points after you spend $3,000 on purchases in the first 3 months of opening the American Express Hilton HHonors Surpass card. The $75 annual fee is NOT waived for the first year. You can read my review of the card here.
And, you can earn 75,000 Hilton points after you spend $1,000 on purchases in the first 3 months of opening the American Express Hilton HHonors card. There’s NO annual fee. Here’s my review.
These are considered different card products. So you can earn the sign-up bonus from both!
But remember, American Express only allows folks to earn the bonus ONCE, per person, per lifetime, on ALL its cards.

And don’t forget to check out my post on 5 spectacular hotels in Asia where you can use your 2 weekend night certificates from the Citi Hilton Reserve card.
1. Hilton Xi’an
Xi’an is a popular tourist destination in central China, known as the home to many ancient dynasties. If you’re planning a trip here, the Hilton Xi’an hotel would be a great choice.
This Hilton Category 5 hotel gets excellent reviews on TripAdvisor. Folks love its central location, beautiful design, and large breakfast buffet.
I found rooms here in June 2016 for ~858 Chinese Yuan (~$132) or 30,000 Hilton points per night. So you can get 2 to 3 free nights depending on which AMEX Hilton card you sign up for. That’s a savings of ~$264 to ~$396!

Many Folks Visit Xi’an, China, to See the Famed Terracotta Warriors. And the Hilton Xi’an is Very Close to the Museum!
The hotel is also just ~1.25 miles from the famous Museum of Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses. Here you can see thousands of life-sized, handmade figures buried with China’s first emperor.
2. Conrad Seoul
Use your Hilton points for Big Travel with Small Money at the luxurious Conrad Seoul when visiting this vibrant city in South Korea.
Folks on TripAdvisor give it glowing reviews because of its elegant design, helpful staff, and excellent location.
Nights here in July 2016 cost ~329,868 South Korean Won (~$290) or 60,000 Hilton points per night. So you’ll get 1 free night with the sign-up bonus from either the AMEX Hilton or AMEX Hilton Surpass cards. Or enough points for 3 free nights when you sign up for both cards. Saving you ~$870!
That’s because you’ll get at least 78,000 Hilton points from the AMEX Hilton card (75,000 point sign-up bonus + 3,000 points from minimum spend requirement). And 109,000 Hilton points from the AMEX Hilton Surpass card (100,000 point sign-up bonus + 9,000 points from minimum spend requirement). For a total of 187,000 Hilton points (78,000 + 109,000).
Note: Remember you get 3X points with both cards for regular purchases. So you’d earn 3,000 Hilton points for the $1,000 minimum spending requirement for the AMEX Hilton card or 9,000 Hilton points for the $3,000 minimum spend requirement on the Hilton Surpass card.
During your trip, visit the ancient Gyeongbokgung Palace, a popular attraction in Seoul. Or walk ~5 minutes to Yeouido Park and check out the cherry blossoms if you’re there during springtime.
3. Hilton Hanoi Opera
The Hilton Hanoi Opera is located in the historic French Quarter of Vietnam’s capital. And you can walk to Hoan Kiem Lake for a relaxing break from the city!
This Category 5 hotel earns strong TripAdvisor reviews for its location, tasty breakfast, and helpful staff.

The Hilton Hanoi Opera Is in the City’s French Quarter Where You Can Discover Amazing Old Architecture
Rooms in July 2016 cost ~$151 or 40,000 Hilton points per night. So you can get 2 free nights with the AMEX Hilton Surpass sign-up bonus. And 4 free nights if you sign up for both AMEX Hilton cards!
Hanoi is known for its architecture, temples, and street markets. And the historic Hanoi Opera House is just across the street from the Hilton Hanoi!
4. Hilton Phuket Arcadia Resort & Spa
Thailand is one of the most popular destinations in Southeast Asia. And the Hilton Phuket Arcadia Resort & Spa is a great option in Phuket.
This Category 5 Hilton hotel is located on the Andaman Sea. And is just a short walk to Karon Beach, so you can feel the sand in your toes!

The Hilton Phuket Arcadia Resort & Spa Is Next to the Beach So You Can Easily Take a Dip in the Ocean!
I found rooms here in July 2016 for ~5,118 Thai Baht (~$146) or 30,000 Hilton points per night.
So with the regular AMEX Hilton card, you can get 2 free nights with your sign-up bonus. And with the AMEX Hilton Surpass card, you’ll get a free 3-night stay. Saving you between $292 and $430!
Phuket is one of the top 10 diving destinations in the world. So you could pay for your scuba certification with the money you save using your Hilton points!
5. DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Jakarta – Diponegoro
The family-friendly DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Jakarta – Diponegoro in the old colonial quarter earns excellent TripAdvisor reviews for the food and large resort-style pool.
And my sweet tooth likes the warm chocolate chip cookie you get at check-in.

Use Your Sign-Up Bonus From the AMEX Hilton Surpass Card for a Free 5-Night Stay at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Jakarta – Diponegoro
Rooms here in July 2016 cost ~1,470,150 Indonesian Rupiah (~$111) or 20,000 Hilton points per night.
So you can get 3 to 6 free nights with the sign-up bonuses from either of the AMEX Hilton cards. Saving you between $333 and $666!
That’s because you get the 5th night free on any award stay when you have elite status with Hilton (which comes with both AMEX cards). So 6 nights would only cost 100,000 Hilton points (20,000 points per night X 5 nights).
This hotel gets almost all 5 stars on TripAdvisor. Because of its convenient location, friendly staff, and beautiful pool (that’s kid friendly too!).
While you’re there, visit Old Town Jakarta for its architecture, delicious food, and street markets.
Bottom Line
Get free stays at hotels like the Conrad Seoul, Hilton Xi’an in China, or the Hilton Phuket Arcadia Resort & Spa in Thailand by using Hilton points!
You can earn points for free nights at many amazing hotels with the highest-ever offers on the AMEX Hilton and AMEX Hilton Surpass. But your applications for those offers must be received by May 4, 2016.
