No,,,,read above:
6.Does a Platinum Preferred Guest member have any alternative welcome gift options if the hotel has a lounge that offers complimentary continental breakfast?
At ... hotels with Club Lounges, a Platinum Preferred Guest member must choose from one of the remaining two options: bonus Starpoints or a local amenity.
You'll continue receiving lounge access with food (if provided) AND points!
