Has anyone seen similar for a given code? A property has more than one rate available for given codes, and not much information available either on property or internally within corporate.
(apologies for posting twice, but not sure if it should belong in the property specific thread or if it should be more broadly for Marriott/corporate code discussion).
One of them is your chain wide discount which is generally some % off BAR and exists as a rate at most/all properties.
The really cheap one which only exists at certain properties and tends to be a significant discount off the BAR and non-variable no matter which date you pick is a negotiated fixed rate your company has with specific properties.
Most big companies will have these. Smaller companies won’t because they don’t have the volume and pull to work with hotels to negotiate highly discounted rates in exchange for providing a significant volume of business to the hotel.
Sometimes both rates show up at a property, sometimes only the negotiated one if there is one.
