I understand that you are probably using some F award, but why don't you simply take a later flight from HKG in Biz? For a two-hour flight it does not make a great difference. Eight hours in BKK and before a long flight is no fun. The F TG lounge is nothing to rave about if you do not have spa access. And you will get it anyway as you fly LX F. The only advantage is getting the buggy when you arrive at BKK to take you to the lounge... The F lounge in BKK is just a section of the J lounge.
Those are good points brunos. I dont think the spa will make or break the experience. I also figure if I dont like the lounge I could pop into the city for a quick few hours and then head back in for my flight to ZUR. As for the buggy, while cool, it certainly isnt something I based my decision to fly through BKK so whether i have it or not is not a game changer but I have never flown TG F before and just wanna check out the product.
