A reader reached out to us recently regarding a tool they’ve created to help people redeem their Hilton Aspire resort credit. The website they’ve created is called HigherAspire.com and it could definitely be a useful tool in finding properties with low – or low enough – nightly rates.

Higher Aspire

HigherAspire.com reminds me of MaxFHR, a tool which helps people redeem their $200 Amex Platinum Fine Hotels + Resorts credit by sorting eligible properties in order of lowest cost. Higher Aspire does something similar, sorting Hilton resorts from cheapest to most expensive.

The reason this could be useful is because the Hilton Aspire card comes with a twice-annual $200 credit that can be redeemed at eligible Hilton resort properties; $200 from January-June and another $200 from July-December. If you’d like to redeem the credit to pay for a stay, the Higher Aspire website can help you identify properties charging $200 or less for a night. In many cases, the credit could cover 2-3 nights.

The way the site works is straightforward. It lists all the eligible Hilton Resorts properties and sorts them by the lowest cash rate available in the booking calendar. At the time of writing this post, rates range from $56 per night to $2,114 per night. That’s not to say that every night is available at the rate displayed; rather, that’s the lowest rate available at some point in the booking calendar.

At the moment, the site has limited functionality in terms of sorting and filtering. You can enter a date range which is helpful if you have fixed dates on which you can take a vacation. There’s also a Map page if you have a general idea of which country or continent you want to visit and want to see which properties are there. For what it’s worth, Hilton’s own website lists eligible resorts by country and region.

One improvement that I’ve suggested to the site’s creator is that it would be helpful to have the ability to filter by country on the site’s home page. The map page lets you view locations and you can click on the pinned locations to see which properties are there, but that page doesn’t give any indication as to price. It would therefore be helpful on the home page to be able to have a search box where you could enter something like ‘Spain’ to have it only display Spanish properties. That would then also make it easy to see their prices at a glance. An existing workaround is to use the Ctrl + F function in your browser to search for any given country, but a search box that filters solely for a country and/or region would be even more handy.

Don’t forget that you can also redeem the Hilton Aspire resort credit for charges to your room; not only on room rates. That means that if you book a stay at an eligible property using Hilton Honors points or free night certificates, you can still redeem the $200 credit towards things like food, drink, spa treatments, activities, etc.
