This is pretty cool, Hilton will do a status match if you are for one.

You just need to send them:
1. Status validation document*
2. Previous reservation or hotel receipt

*Acceptable forms of status validation include a screenshot of your current account status or your membership card.
**Acceptable forms of stay validation include a screenshot of your previous reservations or hotel receipt, redacting any personal information other than your name and membership number. We accept .jpg files only. Please do NOT send us any personal information (including your phone number, address, social security number, date of birth, user name, passwords, or credit card information).

You’ll also have the opportunity to extend your status match through March 31, 2019,
when you stay with us over the next 90 days. If you’re matched to Gold status,
you’ll just need to complete 4 stays. If you’re matched to Diamond, you’ll need 8 stays.*

WE'RE ON IT!

Thanks for requesting status with Hilton Honors. We’re processing and validating your request. Please allow up to 5 business days for your account to be updated.

After 6 business days, I received this email. Just in time for my stay.

What if I want to start booking hotels now?

I chatted with Hilton team, and they kindly assisted. "I checked and see that you can book now till your wait for the status match. However, in order to get the benefit of the status match, your status match process must be completed."
