I wonder if the hotel or your globalist concierge would let you use a couple in your case to do this on a one time basis to guarantee you benefits for multiple rooms since their lounge is closed?

If I had two changes I'd make to "fix" the very few WOH complaints I have, this one would be one -- make it so the club lounge access awards could be used to at least provide free breakfast and maybe a category room upgrade at hotels with no lounge or no open lounge. The other would be allowing TSUs to be used at hotels that don't accept TSUs to at least guarantee an in advance room upgrade to a better room, for the growing number of hotels that have opted out of TSU acceptance.
They should just change the lounge access benefit to breakfast or lounge access. Since only 6 are given, it shouldn't cost that much money.

If they want to be really creative or generous, they can offer globalist for a day perk. So you get treated like a globalist with the same benefits for each day you redeem an award.
