"BMW's Marriott corporate code does not have specific community-documented denial cases. FlyerTalk's general corporate code thread warns: "Every hotel has the right to ask for identification that associates with the corporate code — but very few actually do." BMW is a premium brand with a recognizable code, moderately identifiable to hotel staff. European properties — especially in Germany — carry a higher verification risk."

"I had to change my email to my personal email account. My IT sucks, I have had so many joe.smith1 to joe.smith9 at my corporate name dot Com. Why I like to get my folio in person and on my email. Miss a receipt and your expense report gets rejected. Only been asked once for corporate proff, but I am nice to the staff and explain what's going on before they get a chance to ask. IT still has not figured out how to link everything to Concur for hotels. And it's a huge company"

"I have a close friend who is a GM at a Marriott property in a fairly large US city (top 25 metro population). Their opinion is basically, "Hey, it's business. I'm not turning away a paying guest if they don't have the right ID." In this person's younger days as a front desk agent, they enjoyed catching people trying to use a corporate rate that the guest was not entitled to. As they became higher up and saw the books, occupancy rates, etc... Corp ID's became far less important than filling rooms."
