"AT&T is among the companies with the best Marriott negotiated rates. In the US, I've never been asked to show corporate ID. In Asia and Europe, I've been asked for corporate ID every single time. Since some companies don't put their name on badges for security reasons, the business card route is often tried first and usually accepted."

"I used to China often for work and book directly. I’ve never been asked, if you have a sticker or they can see something with the company logo they assume you work there. I’ve only been asked in Korea and was a hot mess until a manager stepped in."

"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."
