Hilton adds over 100 more SLH Hotels to their portfolio

Hilton Hotels has announced that 102 additional Small Luxury Hotels of the World are now available for booking directly with Hilton. This now completes the move of SLH from Hyatt to Hilton

From exploring the majestic mountains of Switzerland, to horseback riding on a Ranch in Colorado or indulging in world-class wines at a beautiful Spanish vineyard, Hilton and SLH open the door to exceptional stay experiences. Together, they offer new ways for travelers to discover the world’s most aspirational destinations and more ways for Hilton Honors members to dream and redeem with Points.

For those of us in Canada who are not playing the U.S. credit card game, the best ways to earn Hilton Honors points outside of actual stays are buying points during their frequent sales (They are offering up to a 100% bonus right now), their quite lucrative car rental bonus offer (learn more here) and the easiest one, transferring points from American Express Membership Rewards
