Triple Avios on Hilton Stays until 31.1.18
Just got this offer via e-mail:
https://www.hiltonhonors.com/Process...t=100000165799
Book and stay at a Hilton Hotel between now and 30 January 2018, and you'll collect triple Avios. Not only that, you'll also collect Hilton Honors points with each booking. So, your next holiday break could come around a lot sooner, plus you'll save on reward flights, cabin upgrades - and much more.

My experience of this offer in the past was that I got 15 HH per USD, i.e. triple the usual "double dip" rate when I chose points&points, but I can't remember what the T&Cs said for previous iterations nor whether I booked any stays before registering.
In any case, the effect of this promo is very roughly to give you 0.5% back on your spend (depending on your personal valuations, and hotel tax rates at the places where you will stay) so it isn't really worth thinking over too much.
Better to take advantage of the First Direct Visa Offers 10% back on UK stays over £75 or the Amex 3000 MR for £250 spend

Even without this promotion the 45 Avios via IB for HH stays still beats P+P for me, and the 30 via BA would win unless I had regular use of HH to protect their value.

I'm looking at this as well.
Might have a stay at LAX in a week or so ($140 + taxes I think).
Choices are the Hilton (not supposed to be that great but fine for a night) or the Crowne Plaza as usual.
The Hilton gets me double points + triple Avios, and if I'm lucky, counts as one stay towards that 5000 point VISA bonus.
Got another cash + points stay in NY a few days later but no idea if that counts. Apparently get 750 points as a Diamond and no idea if a room spend or something triggers anything.
If not, Tallinn at the end of November will help a bit.
The CP gets me a stay in a country that's not the UK and counts towards my accelerate target (part way towards some other bits as well). Probably gets me 4000-5000 points.
Not going to complete my targets as I need 9 nights more and my stays are split between chains or there are no IHG in Scandanavia etc. that I can use.

My recent stay has credited in the following way:
Not sure why the Avios Bonus show as Points rather than Miles. Will report when I receive the Avios on my BAEC account (or not).

Equivalent 3x offer now listed for IB. NB the term suggesting an earning limit of 10k Avios, although it isn't clear to me if that includes standard or means just bonus.
And also Iberia has lauched 3 x Avios campaign which is valid for stays between 15 October 2017 and 30 January 2018.
That would credit 4,5 Avios / $ as normal earning rate for Iberia is 1,5 Avios / $. Those can be then transferred also to BA Executive club.
