I don't want to just pay extra for a room on club floor.
The Club Intercontinental rate is almost certainly a flexible rate that can be cancelled with no penalty up to 24 hours before arrival. The cheaper rate you quote is probably a non refundable rate with payment at time of booking.
Otherwise I would expect the Club benefits to be the same, ie you will get lounge access in both cases.
