Thanks to View from the Wing for this one!
Hilton has a GREAT sale going on right now with their Exclusive Friends & Family Sale. The offer is 50% off at "participating" Hilton, Waldorf Astoria, Doubletree, Embassy Suites and Hilton Grand Vacation hotels. There also exists 30% at Hilton Garden Inn, Hampton Inn, Homewood Suite and Home2 Suites. Amazing!
If you already have a "refundable" reservation, go back and check if your hotel is now running the offer. You HAVE to go through the link otherwise the regular rates will show up. I tested this offer by checking the Hilton properties in Savannah, GA (since I am going for a couple of nights in December). Sure enough, all hotel room rates were down. I opted for the Hilton Savannah DeSoto for, get this, $54 per night. That price should be illegal for a full Hilton hotel. I was previously reserved at the Hampton Inn for $120 per night.
This is why I am a HUGE fan of never "advance paying" for a room (where they charge the room up front and you are locked in). Advance paying may get you a better rate, but changes in plans, and sometimes rate changes (like this deal), could cost you. If I had advance paid my prior reservations (all to save $20 a night), I would have paid way more, and at a lesser hotel, than what I now have at the Hilton.
The offer is good for stays between 12/14/2012 and 1/7/2013.
If you have an existing reservation at a Hilton property, go see if you can get a better rate! If you have made reservations at a different brand hotel, check Hilton properties in the area for a lower rate! If you need a small amount of stays to make the next Elite level at Hilton, you may want to consider a mattress run with these rates! This is nothing short of AWESOME from Hilton!
