Hilton launches a new Asia-Pacific hotel sale

Hilton has launched a new sale covering its properties in Asia and Australasia.  See here for details.

It includes hotels such as the Millennium Hilton Bangkok pictured above.  You might also want to take a look at the brand new Waldorf Astoria Bangkok which looks very impressive.

The deals are valid for stays up to 30th September 2019 which is surprisingly long.  There is also no rush to book unless you are travelling immediately, as these deals are available until 2nd February.

The headline saving is ‘up to 35% off’ the standard flexible rate – albeit these bookings are non-refundable, and not all hotels offer 35% – so it is worth looking to see if any existing Hilton bookings you have should be rebooked. It may also be worth cancelling redemptions and rebooking for cash if the rate is low enough.

If you are tempted by this offer, please also remember:

to register here for the ‘double and triple points’ promotion which runs until 3rd January

to claim your Hilton Honors status match here from any other hotel status you may have

Full details of the APAC sale can be found on this special page of hilton.com.
