My Take
In my opinion, this is one of the strongest hotel cards out there.
You get Hilton Honors™ Diamond Status just by holding the Card. That’s the highest status Hilton offers, which is rare in the hotel card world.
You also earn a Free Night Reward every year of Card Membership. Hilton Free Night Rewards are my favorite because they aren’t capped at a points level. If there’s standard room reward availability, you can use them at some of Hilton’s nicest properties.
The earning adds up fast, too. You earn 14X Hilton Honors Bonus Points on eligible Hilton purchases, and as a Diamond member you also get a 100% bonus on the Base Points you earn on Hilton stays.
