This is Marriott Rewards' elite published benefits provide the following vis-à-vis the two properties in question:
- Unlike HH, all Marriott Gold & Platinum elites have lounge access 7-days a week to include breakfast, happy hour canapes and libations, all-day beverage & snacks, in addition to other benefits regardless if they are given a club floor room or not.
- Complimentary suite upgrades are subject to availability for Platinum Elite members staying at participating hotels located in Asia Pacific for up to 3 nights. For stays greater than 3 nights, suite upgrades are subject to the hotel’s discretion.
So here is what I would do: Have two bookings of 3 nights at each of these properties.
