As is my knowledge, being upgraded to an executive-level room counts as an upgrade to an enhanced room type, but does not include automatic lounge access.

During our stay at the WA Dubai Palm Jumeirah in September 2021, I asked the price to access the Lounge and was told something like 80USD. Looking at the difference between the Deluxe room and Rosetta Club room at WA Cairo for our stay in March, it is also around 80USD. I´m still not sure if it is worth it.
