About this card

The Hilton Honors American Express Card is a solid choice, earning a 3.6 out of 5. It shines as a no-annual-fee travel card, primarily for its Hilton rewards program. The absence of an annual fee, coupled with decent rewards on Hilton stays, dining, groceries, and gas, provides good value for Hilton loyalists. The signup bonus and Hilton Silver status add further appeal. However, the high APR and the limited value of Hilton Silver status are drawbacks. While it's a strong contender in the no-annual-fee category, it doesn't match the higher-end travel cards in terms of rewards value and perks, keeping it from achieving a higher rating. The excellent reputation of American Express as an issuer further bolsters the card's overall appeal.
