Hilton's jumping into the extended-stay game with their brand new "Apartment Collection by Hilton," partnering with Placemakr. Think furnished apartments with the reliability and points-earning power of Hilton. This matters to you because it gives you another option when planning longer trips, staycations, or if you just prefer a bit more space and kitchen facilities than a standard hotel room offers. Basically, Hilton is trying to capture the growing demand for home-away-from-home experiences. This is a smart move since these kinds of stays often mean more nights booked, translating to more points and potentially faster paths to elite status for you! Keep an eye out for these properties popping up and consider if the extra space and amenities are worth it for your next adventure.
