So depending on your morning appetite, it could be well worth 750 points (which I reckon is only a couple of quid). But GO EARLY - or late: the restaurants can get rammed at peak times.

I believe there are internal rooms in the south hotel, but the north is designed quite differently. In any case, as a platinum member you have some bargaining power at the reception desk, and I doubt they'd consign you to a room without windows.
