"NEC's Hyatt code (16733) is for the Japanese electronics and IT company. Hyatt Asia-Pacific enforcement is near 100% at Park Hyatt and Grand Hyatt properties. NEC has significant presence in Japan, where Grand Hyatt Tokyo enforces verification consistently. A FlyerTalk user with 40+ Hyatt stays across 10 countries reported 50% ID check rate overall with Asia being much stricter. NEC employees in Japan recognize Park Hyatt as a standard business travel tier, and staff there are similarly familiar with NEC employee credentials."

"I don’t really know how they truly enforce this. A lot of companies don’t even put the company name or brand on ID cards anymore due to security concerns (if you find a card on the ground it’s a lot harder to know where to use it). In 20 years of traveling for work I’ve only been asked for a form of ID one time, which was in Germany, and sending the front desk agent an email from my corporate email address took care of their concern."

"I would strongly advise the use of a corporate discount code that you are not entitled to. No doubt that IBM would receive a summary of all reservations made under their code and at what property, and no doubt lurkers on here would be well aware of unauthorised use. In essence it amounds to fraud and I would not want IBM or Hyatt's legal department against me."
