Here is our latest tip for weaving through the phone menu to get to a real person the fastest: Calling this Hilton Hotels number should go right to a real human being
Below are some clips we've found from Hilton Hotels's phone menus and tips that help give an idea of what you will encounter when you call. We've highlighted why they are important as well:

In fact, much of this information on this page is superfluous because this Hilton Hotels phone number is a direct line to a human being. The line is well-staffed and you should anticipate a very short wait on hold or none whatsoever, as long as you are calling during business hours.
We don't know of any phone menus you would encounter when calling either.

What are the hours and when should I call?

Hilton Hotels operates the call center for this 800-774-1500 phone number 24 hours, 7 days. The short answer is that you should call on a Wednesday. This observation and the following section are based on analysis of a sample set of 382 calls made in the last 90 days using our free, web-based phone (see above).

Automatically call when they open

When you use our free AI-powered phone to call and talk, wait on hold, or navigate for you, it will automatically wait until the Hilton Hotels call center opens before trying to call. It will ask your permission before it places the call, so you can also further delay that scheduled call until you are ready. But that means you can "set it and forget it" ahead of time.
An important note: busy times vs hold times vs best time to call
When we refer to busy or less busy times, we are talking about the volume of calls. The busiest times are when the most people are calling this Hilton Hotels phone number (least busy times have fewer people calling). This high call volume does not necessarily mean that you will have a long hold time when you call. Companies like Hilton Hotels staff their call centers differently based on the time of day and day of the week, so you may experience a shorter wait on hold at the busiest of times. When we refer to the best time to call, we are referring to the optimal combination of lower call volume and shorter wait times.

The least busy time to call

The least busy day to call Hilton Hotels is Saturday. The most busy day to call is Friday, which averages 95% more phone calls by comparison. Again, this is based on a sample of 382 calls made with our AI-powered, web-based phone in the last 90 days.

The shortest wait on hold

We measured the shortest hold times to be on Friday. The longest wait in the queue on average occurs on Tuesday.
But if you use our free call and talk for me or wait on hold for me service, you don't really need to worry about average wait times.

The best time to call Hilton Hotels

In summation, the best day to call Hilton Hotels is Wednesday.
Once again, please put this information in perspective because this phone number has no phone menu or long waits. It generally gets picked up right away if calling during their opening hours. If there is any way, it will typically be very short.

  • Have pen and paper handy so that you can take notes during your call.

How do Consumers Feel About Calling Hilton Hotels Customer Service?

Consumers appear to be generally happy with the level of customer service provided by Hilton Hotels' phone-based customer service. The company does appear to make an effort to understand customer concerns and to respond to them appropriately.

What Kind of Issues can a Hilton Hotels Customer Service Representative Resolve?

Hilton Hotels' customer service representatives can resolve many typical consumer issues including answering questions about hotel properties and their amenities, reserving rooms, canceling or changing reservations, researching billing issues and providing details on a guest's Hilton Honors loyalty account.

In addition, a Hilton customer service representative may be able to provide assistance to guests who are dissatisfied with their experiences at a Hilton property and who were unable to resolve things with the property's general manager.

What Can't Be Resolved With a Call to Hilton Hotels Customer Service?

While most issues can be addressed over the phone with Hilton Hotels customer service, not all concerns are easily resolved. If you booked your hotel room through a third party booking service or a travel agent, there may be issues that make it difficult for you to get a refund on a canceled reservation. In addition, phone representatives have limited power to address issues with individual Hilton properties.

What Should You Do If You Have an Unsuccessful Call with Hilton Hotels?

If you get off the phone with a Hilton Hotels customer service representative and feel as though the call did not go well, or that your concerns were not appropriately addressed, don't give up. You may have options.

First, review the notes that you took during your call. The notes may contain information that points to an area of misunderstanding or miscommunication between you and the customer service agent.

Text, call Hilton Hotels back. Explain that this is your second call and that your first call did not provide you with a resolution. The next customer service agent that you speak to may have more training or experience and be in a better position to assist with your concern.

A second call does not do the trick, try getting in touch with Hilton Hotels in another way. Hilton Hotels offers the option of contacting customer service through an email form or live chat. Both of these options will provide you with a transcript of your communications, which may be useful if you have to escalate your case.

Other options for resolving your issue could include contacting the general manager at the hotel where you stayed and asking for assistance. If you booked through a travel agent, he or she may be willing to advocate on your behalf. Similarly, if you made your reservation through a third-party booking agency, that companies customer service department may also be willing to work with you.
