    I’ve selected the general corporate rate (as a government employee I generally qualify for this – no special negotiated rate code needed) at Hilton and Marriot and only once was asked for ID – and that was when I was staying in a tropical destination where the corporate rate was more than half of what the public rate was. In that case by work ID government badge worked. I also had my government issued corporate credit card on hand just in case.

    Egg hunt!

    Are there ways to become an IBM, et partner so this practice is more grey than black?

    "Here’s the public rates at the St. Regis Toronto from Friday, October 9 to Saturday, October 10."
    Err.. the images show Thursday, September 17 to Friday, September 18.

    I have booked via AMEX site more than 100 times on business trips using Hilton’s corporate codes in Canada, USA and Japan (Nagoya & Tokyo) and never got asked once for a corporate ID.

      Hilton Nagoya’s executive lounge is not too shabby, and one can see Nagoya Marriott clearly in the skyline.

    I have been asked for proof of employment several times at Marriott hotels located in Tokyo when using my company’s corporate code.

      If I may ask, what type of proof did they want to see? It’s always interesting to hear about people’s experiences with this kind of stuff.

      1. Jules

        Either a business card or ID badge was requested.

    As grey areas go, I’d say this one is extremely dark grey.

    1. Ricky YVR

      Agreed. I’d say it’s similar to using a Perkopolis code that you aren’t entitled to for a special credit card deal – dark grey, but still undertaken by many.

        How to get this perkopolis code?
