First, thank you for the trip report. It was very helpful. We'll definitely opt for the Renaissance St. Pancras now.
Second, I wonder if the UK lounge drinks policy is in the process of changing (and if it is changing at the RSP). It has, based on comments in another thread, been in flux. As I was checking out the descriptions of the rooms at the RSP on the Marriott website, I found a puzzling inconsistency.
In the description of a Barlow Club room:
Complimentary Cocktails
Complimentary non-alcoholic beverages
In the description of
all of the Chambers rooms:
Cocktails, for a fee
Complimentary non-alcoholic beverages
Clearly, one is incorrect. The question is which one. Given that the Barlow Club room is the only one listing complimentary cocktails, I wonder if it was an oversight. Could the drinks policy in the lounge have changed in the short time since your stay?
