How did we calculate this data? Each time a user links a booking to AwardWallet, we automatically check the cash price for the same exact reservation. This is what powers our points and miles valuations. Then, we pulled the top 10 properties that have an average cash rate of at least $600 per night.

Ho'olei at Grand Wailea, A Waldorf Astoria Resort
Ho'olei smokes! Not only is the Ho'olei at Grand Wailea, A Waldorf Astoria Resort, one of the best-looking properties in the Hilton portfolio, it's also the luxury property where AwardWallet users have gotten the best value for their Hilton points.
In the 453 recent bookings tracked by AwardWallet, users have received an impressive 3.83 cents per point on stays here.
According to the Hilton points calendar, the cheapest nights you’ll find here are 587,000 points per night (Premium Room Rewards). If you can't find a Standard Room Reward for your dates, consider staying at the next-door Grand Wailea, A Waldorf Astoria Resort.
Le Grand Bellevue, an SLH Hotel
Ever since Hilton partnered with Small Luxury Hotels of the World and made SLH properties bookable with points, the value on offer has been hard to ignore. At properties like Le Grand Bellevue, you can save a bundle by redeeming points, and AwardWallet users have done exactly that, saving thousands per night and unlocking 3.38 cents per point.
This property isn't widely frequented by users, but that could change now that you know there's real value to be found here.
The cheapest award nights you'll find here ring in at 210,000 points. That's not cheap, but neither are the cash rates.
Conrad Indianapolis
I haven’t yet paid a visit to the Conrad Indianapolis, but based on AwardWallet user bookings, I might not want to pay cash here and instead redeem Hilton Honors points. In the last near-dozen bookings AwardWallet has tracked, users have redeemed nearly a million points and unlocked 2.32 cents per point.
Award nights here start at just 66,000 points. That's pretty reasonable compared to many of the other properties on this list!
Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal
The Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos Pedregal is one of Hilton’s most aspirational properties in Mexico, and it has the price tag to match. AwardWallet tracked 36 recent reservations here and more than 9.5 million points redeemed. And our users have averaged an impressive 1.95 cents per point on stays.
If that number doesn’t impress you, consider that the average AwardWallet redemption pegs Hilton points at about 0.59¢ each.
Over the last couple of years, award rates here have risen and fallen (though mostly risen). These days, you won’t find a room for less than 250,000 points per night.
Milaidhoo Maldives, an SLH Hotel
It was only a matter of time until a resort in the Maldives surfaced on this list, and the first one is the Milaidhoo Maldives, an SLH Hotel. It’s a popular redemption among AwardWallet users.
AwardWallet tracked 90 reservations here and more than 25 million points redeemed, with the average coming in at 1.69 cents per point. It goes without saying that this translates to serious cash savings.
If you’re looking to stay here on points (and you should instead of paying the cash rate), you can expect to redeem no fewer than 190,000 points per night.
Nobu Hotel Ibiza Bay
If Illes Balears is on your bucket list, you might as well stay at the Nobu Hotel Ibiza Bay when you visit. This SLH property has only seen a couple of AwardWallet user bookings so far, but stays here aren’t cheap. That’s exactly why our users saved thousands per night and unlocked an elite 1.67 cents per point.
Per the Hilton points calendar, the cheapest award night is… drum roll… not something we can tell you right now. The property is currently sold out for the foreseeable future, but once it comes back online, we’ll be sure to update this section.
Waldorf Astoria Park City
Park City, Utah, is synonymous with luxury hotels and some of the best points redemptions. And if you plan to head here to ski or simply enjoy the outdoors, you’ll likely be better off redeeming Hilton points rather than spending cold hard cash. Across 106 tracked stays at the Waldorf Astoria Park City, AwardWallet users have enjoyed an average of 1.61 cents per point.
Award nights here start at a modest (by comparison) 110,000 points per night. Redeeming points is a great way to go if you’re planning a visit in the near future.
Katara Hills Doha, LXR Hotels & Resorts
The Middle East is another part of the world filled with luxury hotels, many of which cost a pretty penny. The Katara Hills Doha, LXR Hotels and Resorts, is one of them. Across nine stays tracked by AwardWallet, users redeemed points at an average of 1.56 cents each. That’s a solid return, especially when you’re saving thousands to stay at one of the most interesting properties on this list.
The cheapest award rate for a one night stay here is 150,000 points, and from what we can gather, availability at this price point is copious.
Conrad Maldives Rangali Island
Next up: more Maldives. The Conrad Maldives Rangali Island is a familiar favorite, and the 90 tracked stays along with more than 30 million points redeemed here are a testament to that. It’s consistently a gold mine for value, as our users have redeemed points for more than 1.5 cents each.
Stays here start at 160,000 points. While that may seem like a lot, it’s a small price to pay for the chance to dine under the water and stay in luxury.
The Roseate Edinburgh, an SLH Hotel
Last but not least is the Roseate Edinburgh, an SLH Hotel. This property hasn’t been in the Hilton portfolio for long, but it has already established itself as a must visit luxury hotel if you care about getting top value from your Hilton Honors points. Across 17 tracked stays, our users have unlocked an average of 1.47 cents per point.
The cheapest award nights here ring up at 75,000 points. There are several Hilton affiliated properties in Edinburgh, and staying here is a great way to get top value for your points.
Boost Your Hilton Honors Points Balance
