Getting StarHOT and StarFriend rates

I heard that if you worked for Starwood you can get a discounted rate on occasion at some of its hotels:

The StarHOT rate: Discount Rate on rooms with rates varying between $29, $49, $69, and $89. With 50% F&B Discount in restaurants and outlets.

The StarFriend rate: Discount Rate on rooms for Friends.

Booking website here:
http://www.starwoodhotels.com/promot...RP_STARFRIENDS

The SilverHOT rate: Disounted rate available for retired Starwood associates


I played around a bit and there are certainly some nice rates around - e.g. W Hotel New York for $89 a night!

Anyway, you need a letter from HR if you a "friend" and presumably some form of ID if you actually work for the company.

Anyone actually tried using these ever? Heck, for $89 it's worth a shot isn't it?
