"FlyerTalk documents Samsung codes as remarkable — one user reported 70% off at the Grand Hyatt Hong Kong. HotelCorporateCodes.com rates Samsung as "Sometimes" for ID verification at Hyatt. Hyatt's general pattern: Park Hyatt checks most frequently, Grand Hyatt and Regency occasionally, Hyatt Place/House rarely. Hyatt is described as "notorious for checking for ID," especially internationally. One user documented 50% ID check rate across Hyatt stays in 10 countries, mitigated by self-printed business cards which "worked 100% of the time.""

"I was referring specifically to a corporate ID. I know international properties ask for passport. What I mean is that I have always been asked for both my corporate ID and personal ID every time I've used a corporate code at an int'l property."

"I can understand wanting to maintain rate integrity, however, I find this to be a bit over the top. While I don't know the particulars of this rate, Louis Vuitton is a global company with employees presumably all over the world. How the hotel would have the resources to verify every employee seems a bit far fetched, especially with huge companies like IBM. Also, does this rate extend to all employees of Louis Vuitton or just traveling executives? I cannot imagine that they would be able to verify that Sally Sue (who likely does not even have a corporate ID) working at the South Park Mall store in Charlotte, NC is indeed an employee."
