The Hilton employee discount, also known as the Go Hilton Travel Discount program is open for ALL Hilton employees to use.

So, every Hilton employee, whether they be a full-time, part-time, or seasonal employee can use the employee discount as long as they work a regular schedule/ consistent basis.

How Long Do I Have to Work at Hilton to Be Eligible?

There does NOT appear to be any specific length of time you have to working at Hilton to be eligible.

That being said, it seems eligible employees should have at least worked a consistent, routine schedule before making use of the employee discount.

Does the Employee Discount Work at ALL Hilton Properties?

Yes.

Employees can choose from several Hilton properties as noted above.

However, depending on the Hilton property you choose, it will determine the price you pay per night.

The dates you choose is also factored into the employee discount and be aware that some high demand dates may not be available.

Any Exclusions to Be Aware Of?

No.

There doesn’t seem to be any exclusions involved with the Hilton employee discount.

However, depending on when and how far in advance you book your stay, you may run into occupancy issues and may not be able to book or use your discount at a specific Hilton location during a certain period of time.

Therefore, be sure to book your stay in advance.

So, family and friends can use special rates of about 35%-50% off standard Hilton hotel rates.

Can I Earn Hilton Honor Points with Employee Discount?

Yes.

Whenever you book using your Hilton employee discount, you can still earn Hilton Honor points as long as you book through your Hilton Honors account.

Can I Get the Discount After I Stopped Working at Hilton?

Yes.

You can still use your Hilton employee discount even after you’ve stopped working at Hilton.

However, this DOES NOT work with all employees.

It only works for employees who have worked for 10+ years at Hilton.

Employees who have worked at Hilton for 10-20 years get to book at the friends and family rate for up to 70 nights per year for the rest of their life.

Employees who have worked at Hilton for over 20 years get to use the same benefits as current Hilton employee members.

This equates to 30 Hilton employee discount night rates per year and 70 nights at the friends and family nights per year.
