NerdWallet values Hilton points at 0.4 cent each. This is drawn from real-world data, but it's not a maximized value. In other words, you should aim for award redemptions that offer 0.4 cent or more in value from your Hilton points.

Hilton hotel redemptions start at 5,000 points, so if you earn one of these welcome offers, you could get several free nights toward your next vacation.
