Throughout October, travelers and fans are invited to share a photo or story from their own “sweet” DoubleTree by Hilton experience using #CookieCare for the chance to win sweet rewards, ranging from free cookies to hotel stays.

In addition to enjoying surprise giveaways throughout National Cookie Month, Amtrak passengers will also continue to have the ability to earn Amtrak Guest Rewards points just by staying with DoubleTree by Hilton and other hotels and resorts within the Hilton Worldwide portfolio.

From New York to New Orleans, and London to Singapore, DoubleTree by Hilton’s Cookie Care campaign has surprised countless travelers since 2014, with much more to come. The hotel brand will continue to spread Cookie Care throughout 2015, celebrating Veteran’s Day in San Diego and ringing in the holiday season in New York City.
