Through March 31, 2012 Hilton's running a "More Points" promo that's good at most hotels around the world.

Hilton HHonors launches first loyalty promo of 2012

As usual, you must first register at the special promo site.

What will I earn?

You can earn 1,000 Bonus Points per night for any stay during the promotion period, ending March 31. You can earn another 5,000 point bonus for any two-night weekend stay.

Hilton defines a weekend stay as any night from Thursday to Sunday, with a minimum of a two-night stay.

You don't have to select between the two offers; instead, you'll be awarded the 5,000 points for any qualifying weekend stay.

Hilton isn't capping the number of bonus points that can be earned during the period, though you can only earn one 5,000-point bonus per weekend stay.

Fine print

Hilton says that points can be redeemed for rooms in any hotel, at any time, as well as room upgrades, merchandise, charitable contributions, and experience and vacation packages.

Check to make sure that the specific hotel you're booking is participating in the promo. The offer's good at "participating" hotels across all 10 brands: Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts, Conrad Hotels & Resorts, Hilton Hotels & Resorts, DoubleTree by Hilton, Embassy Suites Hotels, Hilton Garden Inn, Hampton Hotels, Homewood Suites by Hilton, Home2 Suites by Hilton and Hilton Grand Vacations, but it's worth checking beforehand to avoid disappointment.

Bonus Points don't count toward elite status qualification.
