You must be a lucky man to have every Crowne Plaza offer lounge access without asking. I've stayed at many CP's and don't always get access. In fact, I have booked one for a stay in the next few weeks and access to the Executive Lounge is only available if you book the Executive Floor room, with NO EXCEPTIONS.
