Topic Wiki

Certificates may be redeemed at any Hilton category, including the most prestigious properties such as The Waldorf Jerusalem and The Waldorf Maldives, provided that "Standard Room Reward" availability is present. It should be noted that securing standard room availability at high-category properties, particularly during peak periods, may be quite challenging or even impossible.

To obtain a certificate, the certificate holder typically initiates the process by calling to make a reservation under their name. Subsequently, the certificate buyer is added as a second check-in guest. However, it is important to note that this approach is generally not favored by hotels. As such, it is advisable to approach the process with tact to ensure a smooth experience.

Curious how this process looks for the seller? Do they just call Hilton and say they're booking a FNC at a hotel for a friend and provide the buyer's info?

Call Hilton to book the night and say you want to add a second guest to the reservation for check in and provide the buyer's name.

After adding the buyer as the 2nd guest, can you remove your name, address, credit card #, etc from the reservation? What are the risk involved?

No you can't remove your name because these technically are not transferable and your name will print on the folio at checkout if the guest asks for one when they leave. The buyer will normally give their own card at check in which will over ride the one you have on file when making the reservation. There is some risk involved if they don't give a different card but there needs to be a level of trust and you should only sell to someone you are comfortable doing so.

You can also put in card number for a card that you don't normally use and then lock it to make sure no charges go on it.

You can always use a GC with $1 on it or VCC. The big risk is you have other nights or points in your account. The person can extend their stay with them.
