"FedRooms (295936) is the US government's official negotiated hotel rate program. Government rates legally require a valid government-issued photo ID at check-in — this is federal policy, not hotel discretion. GSA.gov states: "Employees must present a valid government-issued ID at check-in." FedRooms properties are contractually required to enforce this policy. Unlike corporate codes where enforcement is optional, government rate verification is mandatory and systematic. Using FedRooms rates without government credentials constitutes federal contract fraud."

We are specifically told not to bring our badges on international trips due to various concerns about showing our affiliation around foreign national and had a nasty surprise at a JW Marriott insisting that without my badge they were going to raise my rate from $200gbp to $800gbp per night. That was a pretty stressful situation. You’d think they could have validated that the hotel was booked through my corporate partner."
