Be aware, that there are LOTs (and lots) of risk associated with using codes that you are not entitled to use. You may be required to show proof of eligibility: they may request a copy of your business card; they may bump your rate to rack rate.

I've found that this year at many properties that the corp codes aren't giving much of a discount. Not sure if it's related to the recession or what, but the corp rates have definitely gone up at many properties.

Indeed watch out when using those codes!!!
I have been denied the rate at the Park Hyatt Buenos Aires because had no proof I was entitled to use Credit Suisse corp rate (240 $ instead of 450 $) Had to pay the rack rate...ouch
At the Berlin Grand Hyatt the rate I used was not eligible for points or stay because it was an unpublished rate, and I had paid 185 euros, not worth it when you think of it since the published rate was 205 euros advance purchase
I am much more careful now, just be warned

...I don't think it would be too hard to fight them charging me for the night since they would be the ones refusing to honor our "agreement", and that doesn't give them a right to charge me for something I had never agreed to (a higher rate).
Has anyone ever done this (walked out in such a situation)?

According to your "logic" above, you would be willing to book a government employee rate (which can sometimes be quite cheap) even though you may not be a govt employee, and then "fight" the hotel if they deny you the rate?

But, part of the "agreement" would be to show ID and proof that you are entitled to book at these rates. This is usually clearly stated at the time of booking, and also in the booking confirmation.

However there is another good reason not to use corporate rates that you are not entitled to (unless of course you are just looking for a cheap night - and then Priceline is a much better call); and that is that not all corporate rates rates are "eligible rates" in terms of qualifying for points and stay credit.
And you won't know that until after the stay and you try and get retrocredit for your points.

the easy way around of all this is
If you are arriving prior to DOA cut off time (key is having a DOA cut off) then you can chance it. If they don't give it to you, just go to your back up plan
the one problem with this, is lately i'm finding that many Hyatt properties are not going to 24 hour cancellations which are a royal PITA whether you are on a legit rate or not.
