In Europe I have very very occasionally been asked to complete a ihg hotels partnerships voucher (as per attached)
The only country I have never been asked for any credentials whatsoever is when staying in the USA using the DDS rate, although I doubt they would know what UK veterans/military credentials actually look like!
Thank you for your response. Really answered my question. Also first time seeing that voucher. Must be Europe only.
It seems here in the States its only good for a "standard" room. In your experience, do you think its better to pay more for a specific room and get the upgrade or just book "standard" and get the upgrade from there?
