While it’s not widely promoted, Hilton discounts rates at participating hotels by 20% through the MVP program. In order to get the rate, you must be a Hilton HHonors member (easy and free to sign-up) and in most cases affiliated to a sports entity to quality. Since I’m a Fitness Instructor/Personal Trainer it was easy to use this to qualify for the rate: all I did was show my employee ID badge at check-in and no additional questions were asked. If you are traveling to a sports tournament, you can also qualify and hopefully save you money.

As per their website on January 31, 2018, here are their specifications for eligibility:
As a valued, coach, leader or participant of group travel for sports, we invite you to receive a discount off the best available rate at participating hotels in the Hilton portfolio. Find hotels above to get your team’s next trip started.
You’re also eligible to achieve Hilton Honors™ Gold status in just 4 stays in 90 days. Register now and learn more about this exclusive offer.
Please note: You must be an athletic administrator, athlete, or affiliated with a sports entity, sports-related company, sports group or event to be eligible. You will be asked to show credentials, such as an official business card designated with your team logo, etc.
