User @倍多分 from our forum found this:
Currently known information:
- Requires 80 nights per year AND $18,000 in qualifying spend (somewhat 80% of what Marriott requires for Ambassador)
- Name: Diamond Reserve
- Theme color: Black (in comparison to Diamond Purple)
- No known info on tier benefits yet, but we would imagine similar to what Marriott offers for Ambassador or Hyatt offers for Globalist
At present, Hilton Honors tiers include: Member (base), Silver, Gold, Diamond, and Lifetime Diamond. Among these, Diamond is the highest non-lifetime tier and can be easily obtained simply by holding the Amex Aspire card. As a result, in North America, Hilton has perhaps the most diluted elite ranks among major hotel chains. The direct consequence has been benefit devaluation — many hotels receive dozens or even hundreds of Diamond members in a single day, making it hard to deliver meaningful recognition or upgrades.
By contrast, Marriott’s highest card-based status only grants Platinum, above which are Titanium and Ambassador.
It seems Hilton has finally realized the over-saturation of Diamonds from Aspire card in the U.S. The new tier’s benefits are still unknown, and it remains to be seen whether it will rival Marriott Ambassador.
There also appears to be a new hidden tier called “Honor Society”, possibly reserved for hotel owners or invitation-only members.
