希尔顿攻略:希尔顿 Status Match 会籍挑战,金卡挑战 8 晚,钻石卡挑战 14 晚

希尔顿存在已久的 Status Match 活动经历了好几次更新。曾经的挑战任务是按 stay 计算,注册后 90 天内完成 4 次入住升级金卡,完成 8 次入住升级钻石卡。后来改为按 night 计算,在一定程度上提升了任务的难度和挑战成本。

当前挑战任务调整为:金卡挑战需完成 8 晚住宿;钻卡挑战需完成 14 晚住宿。

完成挑战后获得的会籍有效期到 2025 年 3 月 31 日,这意味着您可以持有希尔顿的金卡或钻卡会籍最多接近 2 年时间。

只要您从未申请过 Status Match,白板或银卡会员都可以申请。已有金卡或钻卡会员不能申请。每名会员终身只能申请一次。

一、什么是 Status Match

Status Match 直接翻译就是“状态匹配”。意思就是说,当您已经拥有 A 集团的精英会员资格,那么您可以申请 B 集团提供的“Status Match”服务,来获得 B 集团对应等级的精英会员资格。通过“Status Match”您不需要按照正常规则,累积足够的房晚或者积分,就能获得高级会员资格。

几年前希尔顿开放匹配的时候,只要提交了有效的第三方集团的高级会员资料,基本上人人都可以获得通过。而且并不需要您完成挑战任务,基本上是零成本获得希尔顿的金卡、钻石卡。但是现在不一样了,现在可能叫“Status Challenge”更合适,因为您必须要在注册任务后,90 天内完成挑战任务才能获得升级。

貌似现在在各大酒店集团中,只有希尔顿有长期开放 Status Match 活动,其他酒店集团偶尔才会有一次。希尔顿 Status Match 有一个好处,就是在 90 天的挑战期间,您都能获得金卡的待遇。如果您由于某些原因需要短期内入住一下希尔顿旗下的酒店,那么只要申请一下挑战就能马上获得金卡的各种待遇。

二、申请挑战

您必须通过下方的希尔顿官方指定申请地址,填写表格和提交资料,等客服通过后才能获得挑战资格。

申请地址:
https://www.hiltonhonors.com/en_US/status-match/landing/

填写表格并不困难,您只要提供姓名、电邮地址、希尔顿荣誉客会会员账号即可。如果还没有会员账号,新注册一个就行了(注册地址)。

Status Match 最重要的是,您需要提交合资格的第三方酒店集团的精英会员资料。目前希尔顿声明支持的第三方酒店集团会员计划包括:

根据条款,只有上述列表中的酒店集团才能申请 Status Match。但是其他酒店集团仍然可以提交申请,只是通过几率可能比较低。

注意:与以往不同的是,现在您只能 match 到金卡(90 天有效期),而不能直接 match 钻卡。也就是说申请通过后,在挑战期间您只能享有金卡待遇,钻卡待遇需在完成挑战后才能享有。

填写表单时,您需要提交两份资料,而且必须以 .jpg 或 .png 文件格式上传。

一份是第三方酒店集团会员等级证明:

一份是您在第三方酒店集团过去 12 个月内的入住记录:

这两份资料,您都只需要提供 .jpg 或 .png 格式的屏幕截图即可,不会截图的用手机拍照也行。如果担心隐私泄露,您可以把除了自己的姓名和会员号之外的所有信息抹掉。实际上希尔顿不可能获得第三方酒店集团的会员数据库,所以也就无法比对资料的真实性。这就给了不少人造假的空间。

提交申请后,通常约 7 - 12 个工作日就能得到客服的邮件回复。邮件上会注明您已经获得 90 天的金卡资格,在有效期之前完成挑战任务即可获得正式升级。

三、挑战任务

申请通过后您就可以马上做任务了。前面也已经说了,现在的任务比以前的难度提升了不少,但是这只是针对一些为挑战而挑战的人来说。对于某些刚需来说就不一定了,例如出差党,一次出差可能就住个 10 天 8 天的,以 night 来计算任务就更容易和更方便,还不用为了切 stay 而烦恼。

希尔顿攻略:希尔顿 Status Match 会籍挑战,金卡挑战 8 晚,钻石卡挑战 14 晚
  • 金卡挑战:成功申请后 90 天内完成 8 晚住宿
  • 钻卡挑战:成功申请后 90 天内完成 14 晚住宿

虽然说挑战成本比以前提升了,但是相比正常的升级条件还是非常划算的。正常保级/升级条件:

  • 金卡:在一个日历年内完成 20 次住宿,或在一个日历年内完成 40 晚住宿,或在一个日历年内赚取 75,000 点希尔顿荣誉客会基本积分。
  • 钻石卡:在一个日历年内完成 30 次住宿,或在一个日历年内完成 60 晚住宿,或在一个日历年内赚取 120,000 点希尔顿荣誉客会基本积分。

有一点要注意的是,曾经希尔顿 Status Match 积分房也算有效入住,但是现在已经不算了。

做任务之前别忘记看看有哪些优惠活动可以利用,进一步降低挑战成本。关于希尔顿的最近活动可以参考此文章:

希尔顿订房指南:最新优惠活动汇总(促销、积分奖励、里程奖励、会员升级、购买积分等)

此外,2019 年年初希尔顿宣布,中国的欢朋酒店(Hampton)正式加入荣誉客会计划。希尔顿在中国有大量的欢朋酒店,价格都比较便宜,做任务时大家可以考虑入住此品牌,降低挑战成本。

完成挑战任务后,通常约 1 个星期就能获得正式升级。

四、金卡、钻石卡待遇

希尔顿的金卡待遇已经非常不错,主要包括免费早餐,额外 80% 积分奖励,免费升级房型等。

钻石卡和金卡的待遇相差并不太多,主要区别是金卡最高只能升级至行政房,而钻卡最高可升级至套房。钻卡无论入住任何房型都可以使用行政酒廊,而金卡只有升级到行政房时才能使用。在入住某些酒店时,金卡需要在早餐和积分奖励之间二选一,钻卡能同时拥有。

如非必要,金卡已经足够日常使用,还能减少日后保级的成本支出。

五、其他快速升级渠道

希尔顿除了 Status Match 之外,还有其他一些快速升级渠道,包括:

与 Status Match 不同的是,这些快速升级通道在挑战期间只能享有银卡待遇。

六、总结

现在 Status Match 以 night 计算,难度有所提升,估计希尔顿精英会员的数量会有一定下降。但是从另一个角度来看未必不是一件好事,这意味着希尔顿精英会员的含金量有所提升。

想想在水钻横行的年代,行政酒廊人满为患,服务质量必然下降。对于那些真正住出来的希尔顿真爱粉来说,也相对不公平,甚至有脱粉的风险。

最后还有一个问题,有些人可能无法打开申请页面,或者填写好表格后却无法提交,可能会看到提示:You must pass the recaptcha 。这是因为希尔顿为了防止有人使用机器恶意提交,需要您“进行人机身份验证”。

这个验证功能是由 Google 提供的,所以必须使用你懂的上网方式才能看到。▼
