Hilton HHonors - Do I get hhonors when booking with hotels.com?

Hi... I tried looking on the sticky FAQ first but couldn't find it

If I book a Hilton property with hotels.com, do I get any hhonors credit (nights, points, etc)?

I saw a thread about 4 years ago about it, but cannot seem to find in Hilton's T&Cs anything about it.

Thanks!

No points for hotels.com bookings.

No for hotels.com or 'most' any other 3rd party site.

You should compare/consider the advanced purchase rate for hilton.com
which is eligible to earn you points and credit, if you are interested in a reservation that you pay for now, but cannot change or cancel (just like most 3rd party sites).

Regarding the pertinent information from HH's T&Cs see "Accrual of Points" (http://hhonors1.hilton.com/en_US/hh/terms.do#accrual_of_points) item number 3 for the definition of a "stay". Here's the cut and paste, bolding mine:

3. A "stay" is defined as the total number of consecutive nights spent at the same hotel, whether or not a guest checks out and checks back in again. Specifically excluded from the definition of "stay" are the following types of ineligible stays: wholesale/tour operator packages; contracted crew rates; travel agency discount rates; Team Member Travel rates, Hilton Family Travel Rates; stays secured utilizing Hilton Grand Vacations Club and Hilton Club timeshare programs, Hilton Grand Vacations marketing packages with a sales presentation requirement; complimentary or barter rooms; Reward Stays (as defined herein); NET Group rates; Series Group or IT Group rates; contracted Entertainment or Encore rates; third party websites bookings (irrespective of rate paid); and "opaque" channel bookings where the brand may or may not be known at the time of purchase. HHonors points may not be earned (including as a My Way benefit) for or during ineligible stays, including without limitation, folio charges incurred during ineligible stays. If at least one night of the Member's stay is consumed with the use of HHonors Rewards points, the entire stay is considered a "Reward Stay" and no HHonors points may be earned, except that if Member is using Room Upgrade Rewards, any money spent on the original reservation will earn points and/or miles consistent with these Terms. Participating hotel will determine whether incidental charges incurred during either or those stays are eligible for points, except that Points will not be earned for incidental charges at Hampton Inn®, Hampton Inn & Suites®, Homewood Suites by Hilton®, and Home2 Suites by Hilton®.
