Free breakfast used to be perk for Gold members, but since the change in the name it is perk available only to Concierge level - see here.

Would I get free breakfast for gold members ... when I redeem Points?
"...When you redeem Gold Points for Award Nights of two or more consecutive nights at the same participating Carlson Rezidor hotel property, you will receive the last of the Award Nights of that stay free without deduction of any Gold Points from your Club Carlson account..."

To add to the OP's topic: At the Radisson PVD airport, it's an option among room upgrade to a suite, and in-room amenity. There might be another option that I can't remember. But this was the m.o. I was told. I was also told that the options m.o. is corporate-wide policy, though I am aware that it's not, or if it is, it's not applied consistently. Anyway, I chose breakfast, it was any entree, including lobster benedict, and I was not disappointed.

I have never had free breakfast as a separate benefit. However, some hotels do consistently upgrade this gold member to room categories that automatically include breakfast - suites or business class rooms.
This applies at

Don't even remind me of that one - had business class room booking there in June 2012 for two people. For some strange reason, the included breakfast was for one person only... There are also other reasons why I would never ever return to that hotel...

No breakfast:
Chicago Radisson Blu
Paris Radisson Blu Hotel Champs Elysees
Radisson Blu Rome
Breakfast:
New York Radisson
Radisson Blu Venice
Radisson Blu Cannes
Radisson Blu Nice
MOST of the time, free breakfast is stated in the Rate Details/Descriptions. Only NYC was an upgrade to suite/biz resulting in free breakfast that was not listed in Rate Details/Descriptions.

I have a stay at Austin Radisson next week...
will enjoy 2 nights for 44K as I do have the VISA card.
FWIW.... I asked hotel, they can add breakfast for 15K points,
not sure if that is worth it, probably not.
(But 2 nights parking for 6K ... maybe.. .
