An honorary degree is one which is granted as a mark of honour, i.e. given in appreciation of work that you have done, or have contributed to society; sometimes it is only backscratching because one is a public figure/Politician/"one of the boys"etc.

A degree with honours is one with one has achieved the highest possible marks.

An honours degree, however is a higher grade of distinction for meritorious, advanced, or specialised work.
