Personally I have a few positive experiences with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/hilton-brg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" title=\"\">Hilton&#8217;s Price Match<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/2020\/06\/14\/save-on-your-hotel-stay-with-hiltons-price-match-guarantee\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">wrote this post about it<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I happened to make another claim recently, which turned out successful and taught me a couple of new things. Hilton&#8217;s Price Match page is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/hilton-brg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" title=\"\">here<\/a> and these are the basics:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Room details and rate rules have to be identical<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hampton hotels in China and SLH hotels in certain countries are excluded<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You can apply <strong>without a reservation<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Price Match service has evolved since I looked at it last time &#8211; everything can be done online, including claiming without a reservation, in which case they&#8217;ll make a reservation for you after the claim is approved. If you claim online Hilton aims to process it within 24 hours, for quicker response you&#8217;ll have to make a phone call.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Remember that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.verylvke.com\/en\/2025\/04\/04\/14-top-value-slh-redemptions-using-hilton-points\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">hundreds of SLH hotels are part of the Hilton Honors program<\/a> now, the pricing of which can be quite odd. It&#8217;s not unusual to see much lower rates on travel agency websites or even the hotel&#8217;s own website, compared to Hilton \/ SLH.
