And the best part is, none of the dates I've searched in any property (even clicking on Book Now through the link) says that the deal is available. A bit of a joke, really. Otherwise it'd be a fantastic offer.

It's indeed a nice promo, too bad it doesn't apply to me since my bookings are done thru TA and at corporate rate.

All of a sudden, it turns out there was a problem yesterday where no one could book the 2-for-1.

I can confirm that it *does* work now, but they've not really halved the price. What was over the last two weeks an RM213/253 room is now an RM165 room per night at the Hilton PJ now.

Nevertheless, still a significant saving. Especially partnered with the 3k miles/night (I believe only 3k will be credited per 2 nights now, however)

I was being cheeky there. Since the title was 2 for 1 The Hilton Family sale, I was referring to Paris Hilton

haha , you got me on that

Update:

I'm shocked (in a nice way) to see that they've credited two nights x 3k each night i.e. 6k HH double-dip total into the HH account.

Which should show up in the FFP a/c but hasn't... for over 6 weeks now from my first Hilton run

Good stuff kyo. Now if only there were Hiltons in PEN......

[Kyo]

If only we were so lucky. I stayed at the PEN Shangri-la instead (not the fancy Rasa Sayang one), ticked the double Krisflyer miles option and 5 weeks later, not a single one's posted too.

All these hotel partnerships not doing their job properly annoys me. We pay good money and they hope we don't notice... tsk tsk

Argh... torn between running first for SPG Plat or HH Gold now... this HH promo is seriously diverting some of my SPG stays unfortunately so it's taken until this past weekend to hit SPG Gold. 6 stays away on HH Gold and this will take me twice as long with quite a high opportunity cost to max out the Hilton stays.

Update: They recently took 10 weeks to credit all but two weekend stays worth of airline stays now... but it finally arrived.
