Choice Hotels International operates more than 7,000 properties across 22 brands in 40+ countries. Despite being one of the world's largest hotel companies, Choice Hotels is often overlooked in corporate code guides –making it a genuine opportunity for savvy travellers to find less-competitive rates.
Choice Hotels brands include Radisson (in the Americas), Comfort Inn, Comfort Suites, Quality Inn, Clarion, Sleep Inn, Econo Lodge, Rodeway Inn, MainStay Suites, Suburban Studios, WoodSpring Suites, Cambria Hotels, and Ascend Hotel Collection.

Choice Hotels Brand Guide –Which Brand for What Trip?
Comfort Inn & Comfort Suites –The flagship mid-scale brands. Free hot breakfast at most properties. AAA and AARP codes widely accepted. Best for value-conscious business and leisure travellers.
Quality Inn –Economy-to-mid-scale positioning. Strong presence in secondary cities and highway locations. Government rates available at most properties.
Clarion & Clarion Pointe –Upper-mid-scale, often with meeting facilities. Good for small business conferences. Corporate codes from major companies more likely to be loaded here.
Sleep Inn –Compact, modern budget brand. Ideal for solo business travellers. AAA and AARP discounts consistently available.
Cambria Hotels –Choice's upscale lifestyle brand. Found in major urban markets (New York, Chicago, Nashville). AAA and Choice Privileges member rates provide the best accessible discounts here.
Radisson (Americas) –Choice Hotels acquired Radisson Americas in 2022. Radisson properties in North America now participate in the Choice Hotels ecosystem. Radisson Rewards members can link accounts with Choice Privileges.
MainStay Suites & Suburban Studios –Extended-stay brands with kitchen facilities. Excellent for multi-week business trips. Weekly and monthly rates often beat any corporate code.
WoodSpring Suites –Budget extended-stay brand. Best value for month-long placements. Corporate codes less commonly loaded here; direct negotiation with property management recommended for extended stays.
The AAA Rate –Most Reliable Public Discount at Choice Hotels
The AAA code (00029979) works at virtually all Choice Hotels properties in North America and delivers consistent 10–5% discounts. Combined with Choice Privileges membership, AAA travellers benefit from both the rate discount and points earning on the same booking.
AAA membership costs: $50–5/year depending on membership tier and location. Break-even on hotel savings alone typically requires 2– stays per year.
Government Rate –Best Discount for Eligible Travellers
The government rate (00002695) is one of the most reliable corporate-equivalent discounts available at Choice Hotels. Federal, state, and local government employees plus active military qualify. Many Choice Hotels properties in state capitals, military base areas, and government centre locations offer particularly strong government rates.
Required at check-in: Valid government photo ID or military ID showing agency or service affiliation.
Negotiating a Direct Corporate Rate at Choice Hotels
For businesses with recurring travel needs, Choice Hotels offers a corporate account programme that smaller companies can access more easily than with larger chains. Contact the Choice Hotels Business Development team or approach individual properties directly.
What you need:
Properties with lower occupancy in secondary markets are often willing to establish corporate accounts for businesses booking as few as 20–0 nights per year.
Always Compare Before Booking
Choice Hotels frequently runs public promotions –advance purchase discounts, AAA flash sales, and Choice Privileges point-bonus offers –that can beat corporate pricing. Always check:
Frequently Asked Questions
Do Choice Hotels corporate codes work across all brands?
Most codes are loaded at the property level, not chain-wide. A code working at a Comfort Inn in Dallas may not apply at a Cambria in New York. Always test your code at the specific property before booking.
Does Choice Privileges work with the Radisson Americas brands?
Yes –since the 2022 acquisition, Radisson Americas properties participate in the Choice Privileges programme. Points earn and redemption apply across both sets of brands.
Can I use a Choice Hotels corporate code for personal travel?
This depends on your company's travel policy. Many corporate agreements permit personal use; others restrict codes to business travel only. Check with your HR or travel coordinator.
Do Choice Hotels corporate bookings earn Choice Privileges points?
Yes –bookings made through choicehotels.com or the Choice Hotels app with a corporate code earn full Choice Privileges points. Third-party bookings typically do not earn points.
What is the best Choice Hotels discount for a traveller without an employer code?
The AAA rate (00029979) combined with a free Choice Privileges membership provides the most accessible legitimate discount –typically 10–5% off plus points earning on every stay.
