Upon hotel check-in, the member’s status will be confirmed, and they will be informed by the front desk staff and/or the Hilton Honors app about the Daily F&B Credit including which on-property outlets are participating. Each day of their stay, the Hilton Honors member will charge their eligible F&B purchases to their room, and the credit will be automatically applied to their total bill for those F&B purchases charged to their room.

The Hilton Honors Daily F&B Credit is provided to the member (and up to one additional guest registered to the same room) for each night of their stay and does not accrue or rollover from one day to the next if unused.
The daily credit amount may be used in full on the day of check-in or check-out, or on various eligible items throughout these days until the maximum daily amount is reached.

15. Does the Hilton Honors member receive an additional Daily F&B Credit for double occupancy?
The complimentary Daily F&B Credit is intended to cover up to two guests, which includes the Hilton Honors member and one additional guest registered to the same room (on one room per stay), per night.
16. Can the Hilton Honors Daily F&B Credit be utilized across multiple outlets within a day?
The Hilton Honors complimentary Daily F&B Credit can be utilized across multiple outlets within one day. It will be automatically applied against all eligible F&B charges made within that timeframe, up to the total daily credit amount.
17. If members do not have F&B charges, can they apply the Hilton Honors Daily F&B Credit to the total folio?
The Hilton Honors Daily F&B Credit was created to provide guests with more dining-related flexibility, so the credit can only be applied to eligible F&B charges billed to the member’s room.
18. Some members may utilize the hotel restaurants or bar areas for meetings, dinners, etc. without staying at the hotel. Does the Hilton Honors member have to be staying at the hotel to receive the F&B credit?
Hilton Honors members, even if utilizing hotel facilities such as a restaurant or bar area, must be a registered guest of the hotel to receive the complimentary Daily F&B Credit.
19. Do members receive the Hilton Honors complimentary Daily F&B Credit on redemption/reward stays?

20. Do members receive the Hilton Honors Daily F&B Credit at all-inclusive properties?
Like the previous elite Continental Breakfast benefit, the Hilton Honors Daily F&B Credit is not offered at all-inclusive properties.
21. If a member selects Points over the Daily F&B Credit on a reservation with a registered guest, do they receive double Points?

22. Can a guest make a change to their MyWay benefit mid-stay to receive the Daily F&B Credit?
No, Hilton Honors members should make their MyWay benefit selections prior to check-in or during arrival in order to receive the complimentary Daily F&B Credit.
23. When does the credit expire each day?
The credit does not “expire” until the member checks out. However, the daily amount re-sets each day to the maximum daily credit value at midnight. Members can use up to the total daily maximum and are responsible for anything beyond that amount.
Since the member gets a new credit each day (for the number of nights of their stay), the only day they can use any leftover credit is the morning of check-out. (return to top)
24. How will the complimentary Daily F&B Credit appear on my hotel bill/folio?
The total eligible Daily F&B Credit amount used and billed to the room during a member’s stay will be automatically applied and appear as one line item per day on a member’s hotel bill/folio, deducted from the total stay cost at the end of their stay.
25. How will the Hilton Honors Daily F&B Credit be handled at hotels with Executive Lounges?
At hotels that have an Executive Lounge that offers complimentary breakfast, Diamond members and Gold members upgraded to Executive Lounge access will not receive the Daily F&B Credit. These hotels will provide the Daily F&B Credit to Gold members not upgraded to Executive Lounge access.

- how it works for multi-night stays, and
- to what extent it applies outside the US
- The credit does not accumulate over the duration of your stay. For instance, if you stay for 2 nights at a $15/night property, you cannot use the benefit toward a single $30 purchase.
- Thus, the credit for a given day may only be used on that day. It expires afterward.
- Hilton's FAQ insists that "[t]he credit does not 'expire' until the member checks out." This is, to put it politely, complete nonsense.
- The Hilton FAQ states that "the daily amount re-sets each day to the maximum daily credit value at midnight." Unfortunately, this addition to the FAQ--made in Spring 2022--raises as many questions as it answers.
- The Hilton FAQ states explicitly that "for a one-night hotel stay, a Hilton Honors member would receive one complimentary Daily F&B Credit; the member may use the credit on the day of arrival or day of departure." This would be the sensible approach, but the alleged "midnight reset" policy cannot be reconciled with it.
- A similar problem exists for any stay of N nights. Unless a guest arrives after midnight on the first night, or departs before midnight on the last night, there will be N+1 "days" (using midnight as the demarcator) but only N usable F&B credits. For example, a guest arrives Monday for a two-night stay. That means the credits may be used only on two of the three "days," those being Monday evening; Tuesday; and Wednesday morning (departure).
- The benefit terms were revised in December 2022 to cover Motto properties outside the US; previously, the F&B credit applied only to US properties. However, the official T&C now refer more vaguely to “complimentary continental breakfast OR a Daily Food & Beverage Credit (varies by brand and region).” (link)
- A reputable blogger reported in late December 2022 that the Hilton Fallsview in Canada is also issuing F&B credits in lieu of free breakfast, with Hilton corporate appearing to ratify this decision. (link) In November 2023, a FT member reported the same occurring at the Doubletree Calgary North (link).

Haven't hotel food operations operated at a loss for years? Which is a reason why the limited-service hotel brands are where all of the new construction is at? Door Dash and the other delivery services are probably killing room service.

Thank you for posting this. Pretty much confirms that this is debacle is nothing about guest "flexibility, choice and control" as claimed in the first post in this thread.

Person in my office who has to go to Denver travels with his husband a lot. They were in Denver in early December and the client usually has fresh pastries and coffee brought in so he always eats there and his husband takes breakfast at the hotel.
Last month he was able to use the full credit for two people to pay for his breakfast and it covered. This trip the same property said he could only use one of the credits since it was for two people and he had to pay the difference. I was in Chicago for an extended New Years weekend and my friend and I were both able to use the entire $30 each day on one charge.
I get that the credit is per person and it is fair if only one credit is given person person and they don't combine it but they need consistency. Especially if it's the same property.

Stayed at Hilton Boston Downtown for 2 nights, they confirmed the $60 credit was good for the entire stay before check out. Spent about $63 total. At check out, they told me the only charge was the $3. In fact ,after a week of check out, the pending charge completely dropped and $3 wasn't charged either.

Just had a good stay at a Hampton Inn. Breakfast was not as good as the Hilton would give me, but it did the trick, and I did not have to pay for it. (I used points for the stay).
The hotel staff was AWESOME!

Hampton Inn "breakfast" has always been free - HHonors members or not. I've preferred the other brands for their hot made to order breakfast.

I know that Hampton breakfast has always been included in the room rate. And I agree that other Hilton properties usually have better breakfasts. But with Hilton's new breakfast credit policy I'm just burning my points at properties that come with breakfast.
