Overview
- The Honors Society label has appeared in Hilton’s on‑property systems, indicating a tier positioned above Diamond Reserve and separate from Lifetime Diamond.
- Hilton told the outlet it has no additional information to share yet and expects to provide clear guidance in early Q1 2026.
- Beginning Jan. 1, 2026, the announced overhaul adds Diamond Reserve at 80 nights or 40 stays plus $18,000 in qualifying spend with perks including confirmable at‑booking upgrades, guaranteed late checkout, lounge access, dedicated support, and a 120% points bonus.
- Internal tier presentations to hotels depict Diamond as below The Honors Society, Diamond Reserve, and Lifetime Diamond.
- Reporting cites estimates of roughly 235 million Honors members, 1.25–1.375 million Diamonds, and 50,000–55,000 Diamond Reserve members, suggesting The Honors Society would be a very small subset.
