Yes, Hilton rewards nights and stays count equally across all Hilton brands for maintaining your Hilton Honors status. This means that whether you choose to stay at the high-end Waldorf Astoria or opt for the more budget-friendly Hampton by Hilton, your efforts to maintain your status are valued just the same.
Hilton Honors Elite Status Requirements
- Silver Tier: 4 stays or 10 nights or 25,000 Base Points
- Gold Tier: 20 stays or 40 nights or 75,000 Base Points
- Diamond Tier: 30 stays or 60 nights or 120,000 Base Points
For those aiming for lifetime elite status, the program counts both paid and reward nights towards the required threshold. This approach ensures that all stays, regardless of the brand or the rate, advance members towards their goal of lifetime Diamond status.
