Hilton Hotels – Travel Industry Discounts

January 25, 2022 By Anna Leave a Comment

Deal At A Glance

Link: Hilton Hotels
Details: Using the link above, you will access the travel industry rates – it is worth having two windows open, one using the above link, one the standard Hilton site you you can compare the prices.
Book By: Ongoing
Eligibility: Valid for travel agents or airline employees. ID can be requested at check-in. In fact, it was requested for one of our stays, but a Business Card was sufficient proof of ID.
Potential Savings: 50% is reportedly possible, though the offers are often only for quieter days.
Flexibility: Card details required, but free cancellation upto 23:59 on day before arrival.
Ease Of Use: Straightforward, however availability can be limited.

Updated Information for 2022

Hilton have vastly simplified their agent booking website – there are no codes, it’s easy to search for specific hotels or entire areas. They’ve also removed the 90 day booking restrictions, and eliminated errors around ‘Flexible Date’ searches.

Most importantly, in most cases (we found exceptions in some cities like Bangkok) they will show the cheapest rates you can book irrespective of whether it’s a Travel Agent Rate of Honors Members Rates. This is important as Hilton are running aggressive public facing offers – so Travel Agent Rates (which tend to be 30% off BAR) do not appear as attractive. It is worth mentioning that Travel Agent Rates can be cancelled the day before travel – many Hilton offers are non-refundable so do check if you decide to book a Public Offer instead.

Hilton do offer travel industry discount deals, but availability varies greatly by hotel, in many hotels it is often only possible to get a discount on a quieter day (i.e. Sundays).

Further Information

However, that’s the negatives out the way. The great advantage of Hilton is that they have such great reach, so many hotels across the globe – more than 500 hotels in 78 countries (at the time of writing). In Europe they tend to focus on larger urban settings, but you will find stunning Hilton hotels in Bora Bora to Miami Beach.

Discounts of up to 50% are available for travel agents or airline employees and it is very straightforward for checking availability.

We find that Hilton are not overly generous in the availability for travel agent rates but there are some great discoveries to be found. For example, the popular Hilton Brighton Metropole seems to be available on Sunday’s only, however there are real savings to be made.

We ran a search and found that a King Guest Room was available with a 30% reduction on the summer sale price and a 52% reduction on the standard internet rate. A suite with a sea view was 49% less than the standard internet rate.

Beat that Trivago.

If the discounted rates are only available for a Sunday but you want the whole weekend you could of course ring the hotel so they can sort everything in one booking, rather than having to much around making two separate bookings online. Who knows, they might even give you an extra discount over the phone.

Updated information for 2022

It is clear that the parent group (Carlson Rezidor) are now pushing their main brand – Radisson, and their sub-brands including Radisson Blu, Radisson Red, Radisson Individuals, however for those of us in the UK we will still be familiar with Park Plaza and Park Inn hotels (less so their final brand Country Inn). However, the Travel Industry Code searches all brands making searches simple, and the savings remain excellent at times.

Discounts are particularly strong in cities where the Radisson operates most hotels – such as in London.

Further details

This is our type of deal – generous and easy to use, savings of 50% are not uncommon.

You may not know Carlson Rezidor – but their brands have over 1,300 hotels in 70 countries (making it the 10th biggest hotel group).

This group includes Radisson – largely luxury city based hotels in the US, Radisson Blu – the Radisson hotels based in Europe, Asia and Africa and Blu Edwardian Hotels which are 14 luxury hotels in the UK.

The mid range Park Plaza & Park Inn have hotels throughout the world – and frequently have agent rates for as little as £27.50 a night.

If you join their loyalty scheme Look to Book you can also earn award nights on most of their agent rates.

Most importantly – searching for agent rates is simple, with flexible searches and excellent availability. We just did a quick check for discounts in London in two month’s time and found savings at every hotel, with most in the 30 to 40% range.

Eligibility: As no Travel Agent Discounts, Premier Inn’s best rates are available to all
Ease of use: Very simple

 

Further Information

With over 700 hotels Premier Inn are amongst one of the largest hotel groups in the UK.

First and foremost – Premier Inn have confirmed that they do not off Travel Industry Rates – however, the range & price of hotels mean you should consider them in any of your UK Searches.

Increasingly Premier Inn has become a leading business hotel – which means many of their best deals are for weekend stays. They frequently run sales and the website is exceedingly easy to use – and very easy to check flexible dates and nearby options.

And of course for those of us about to go on our holidays, Premier Inn have a range of airport hotels, including a great option at Heathrow Terminal 5 for those of you off on British Airways flights.

It should be noted that the vast majority of Premier Inn hotels only have doubled bedded rooms – but unusually most have great family rooms. An interesting note for those of us with kids is that if they do not have Family Rooms in your chosen hotel – you can book a 2nd room for 2 children under 15 at a 50% discount – although only on Friday, Saturday & Sundays – and you’d have to call the hotel directly to confirm this.

Book by: Ongoing
Eligibility: No Industry Deals, so all rates available to everyone and anyone
Ease of use: Very simple with excellent availability

Further Information

Travelodge might not offer travel industry discount rates, but their rates are so competitive to start with they should still be considered.

Locations are spread across city centres, off main roads, and of course, near airports.

Starwood Hotels – Travel Industry Discount Rates

November 1, 2018 By Anna 2 Comments

Deal At A Glance

Link:  www.spg.com/pro to join
Details: You must join, log-in, complete the first learning module, then find the ‘PROLEARNING’ link at the bottom, then you will find the ‘Book Starpro Rates link’ – or if you are logged in – just click here
Book by:  Ongoing
Eligibility: Must present proper identification as detailed above when booking and upon check-in
Potential savings: 40% is common
Ease of use: Fairly straightforward once you have registered and jumped through the initial hoops and know where to find the link…
Note: There is a separate ‘Travel Professional Rate’, however this serves up smaller discounts as outlined below.

Further Information

One of our most requested hotel chains is Starwood – perhaps not by name, but by one of the myriad of largely luxury brands they own.

You’ll probably know their brands – Sheraton, Westin, The Luxury Collection, the luxury boutique W Hotels brand, St. Regis, Le Méridien and an upcoming range of mid-priced properties such as Aloft, Four Points by Sheraton and the first environmentally friendly chain – Element by Westin.

With 25% of the 1,200 hotels under the Starwood brand being in the United States, they are a great place to explore Travel Industry rates – which fortunately are relative straightforward to find – once you’ve signed up.

Starwood operates a SPG Pro Programme where you are expected to join Starwoods Frequent Traveller Programme. You also (as per most US Centric Programmes) expected to enter an IATA/TIDS/ARC/TRUE/CLIA number. With the majority of these being irrelevant to us in the UK – enter your IATA, or some people have entered that of their Consolidators if they do not have their own. Always carry ID on check-in (business cards / letter of employment on headed notepaper).

After signing up – head to the Pro Learning Section where you must pass the straightforward Loyalty and Brands section – this is essential to get access to StarPro rates.

And it’s well worth it. For example – we found the W Hotel in Leicester Square at a 40% saving.

It should also be mentioned that Starwood also offers a secondary ‘Travel Professional Rate’, but this was vastly inferior in price and availability compared to the Star Pro rates in every case we examined – so we recommend you spend a bit more time going through the Starwood training programme to access the better rates.
