Can anyone suggest how I might obtain access to corporate discount for hotel rates?

Can anyone suggest how I might obtain access to corporate discount for hotel rates? I don't know anyone in the corporate sector who's email address I could use, but am trying to book hotels overseas and the savings can be substantial. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Is this this for your self only or for staff who may use a hotel on a regular basis if it is the latter ring the hotel chain of your choice and discuss rates discounts etc and open an account  . Hope this helps

thanks Merc25, it is for myself and a colleague. Unfortunately it isn't on a regular basis (once or twice per year)

Go to the intercontinental website and join the Ambassador club you get a garenteed upgrade and 1 free night  together with grate rates and lots of perks it's the quickest way to get upgrades.hope this helps
