Should I just book the 1 KING BED DELUXE and then expect an upgrade to I KING BED GRANDE DELUXE or Should I just book the 1 KING CLUB IC? If rooms at club floor are not renovated, then I'd prefer the renovated GRANDE DELUXE room.
Thanks for any advice in advance.

Here is the written answer I received from IC Bangkok regarding this matter :

Dear Madam, dear Sir,
I will stay in your hotel on points from 6th to 12th February 2008.
I was told that, despite being Royal Ambassador #XXX:
- I will not get access at the InterContinental club lounge,
- but I was also told that if I had paid for part of my stay, I would have gotten a room upgrade with club access.
Would you please tell me if this information is correct or not.
If this correct, would it be possible to pay my first night (1 king bed deluxe, t THB 6,300) and get back the 5,000 points corresponding to this night.
Best regards
