If there is one thing that readers love, it is free breakfast. It is an important perk for elite members of theHiltonHonors.
There has been a change to the terms and conditions on the website of a US based hotel.
The complimentary continental breakfast benefit for Gold and Diamond elite members was eliminated last year. Many elite members thought the change to the program was a downgrade.
The continental breakfast benefit was the same outside the U.S.
After this month's update of the terms and conditions, many people were wondering if the free breakfast that was offered in the U.S. could be offered in other countries.
The terms and conditions stated that on-property perks included complimentary snacks and beverages, complimentary continental breakfast, and daily food and beverage credit.

The new version states, "Qualification for all on-property Hilton Honors benefits, including complimentary internet and My Way benefits such as complimentary snacks and beverages, complimentary continental breakfast or a Daily Food & Beverage Credit (varies by brand and region)"
International hotels can now offer the same food and beverage credit as the U.S. hotels.
There are no changes in the U.S. or internationally, according to the clarification given by the hotel. The representative explained that the international expansion of Motto by Hilton has always offered food and beverage credit as part of its brand standard.
There are no changes to the broader HHonors F&B program offerings.
You can get your hotel breakfast for free.
The terms and conditions still have the ability to be changed further down the line. A free full breakfast is a great way to save money, but we don't want to see it swapped for a dollar-valued credit that doesn't cover the cost of coffee and a muffin.
