As stated on the website: http://www2.visasignaturehotels.com/hilton-one-night-free/, the deal is dead, and has been since September 15, 2016: "Due to popularity of the complimentary night offer, the offer is no longer available. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause. You can book a stay at any participating Waldorf Astoria, Conrad or Curio hotel by October 31, 2016 and receive a $75 USD Visa gift card after your stay (see promotion page for more information)."

Just checked in to Conrad Bangkok. The check in agent knew about the promotion and confirmed I'd get the second night free and $25 F&B credit. She told me the credit had to be used at the outlets, not for room service or minibar.
Also, she mentioned that under the promotion, I got a deluxe corner room, and that they then upgraded me one level as a Diamond member, so I'm in a pretty nice 30th floor suite.

Yes, they recognized the program at check-in and were proactive in saying that the 2nd night would be deducted from my bill and that I had the $25 credit.

For those who have already completed their stays under this 2-for-1 program, did you get HHonors points and stay credits for the 'free' night as well? It is after all not really free as Conrad/WA does get paid; instead, for example, your company paying the bill, in this case VISA is paying the bill.

I just checked mine, no points, but no stay recognized either. I booked the room under my name, but used my wife's HHonors #. At check-in I had them add my wife to the reservation, but I might've committed a faux pas. Not sure I'm any help, will try to update later. The stay was 9/15-9/17.

Checked out a week ago from WA under this super deal (took me a while to get them to understand it, but eventually...) Anyhow, does the $75 Visa gift card just show up in the mail at some point, and when? (Worried it's the kind of thing that could get thrown away if we're not looking for it.)

The rate didn't show up in their system, or was their difficulty in understanding with the ancillary benefits (such as breakfast, upgrade, $25 credit...)?
The gift card is supposed to show up at your address 6 weeks later, so it's probably too early for any data points at present, but I'm curious as well.

Boca Raton Beach Club ... first they said that it was only a fourth night that was free, then I had to ask about the $25 ... Nothing bad -- just they weren't getting good info from corporate or wherever, and had to make a couple of calls. Worth it for a great deal!
Thanks for info re GC

My stay at the Grand Wailea posted to my Hilton account, and indeed, you get points for both nights.
At checkout, the second night's cost was already taken off the bill. (The resort fee however was charged.) Also, the $50 resort credit was automatically applied as well.
I had a lot of incidentals (>$300 worth), and I requested at checkout that $200 be charged to my Amex plat. This triggered the various offers on that card (3K bonus membership reward points and 7500 extra Hilton points). The T&C for the free night offer didn't require that all incidentals be charged to the visa signature card. However, I wouldn't try to charge any part of the room rate to a non-visa signature card.
Also, the charge posted as "online merchant" to my Chase Visa - so this didn't get the double points for hotel spend on that card. Not a big deal given the generosity of this promo offer.

Was the free daily breakfast the buffet?
What VIP benefits did you get as part of this deal?
Can the $50 resort credit be used to cover the resort fee?
Thanks.
What free daily breakfast?
