"Deutsche Bahn's Marriott code 11353 is a German railway operator code in the global GDS system. Outside Germany, this code is essentially unknown to hotel front desk staff. German Marriott properties near Deutsche Bahn offices may be more familiar, but the code is rarely discussed in English-language travel forums. No verification incidents found. European public transit company codes attract minimal scrutiny."

"I've been given codes for several chains from family/friends who are entitled to have them. All have assured me they have never been asked to provide company ID when checking in. In fact I was told they give the codes out to visiting clients who won't have ID anyway."

"I'm guessing so, but I'm not a Marriott employee. Also, to answer some of the other questions floating around here, I have never been asked to produce my work ID when checking into the hotel that I booked using a corporate rate. I travel half a dozen times a year."
