Stayed in the Conrad a couple years back. Best food I've ever had in a Hilton properly lounge. Breakfast buffet was nice, but afternoon snacks and the evening food was off the charts. Very impressed.

If you compare to North American lounges, then yes. But within Bangkok, there are lots of very good and in my opinion better lounges in other chains for example Athenee (Luxury Collection), Grand Hyatt, Marriott Marquis, just to name a few.

Maybe with respect to your property choices in terms of geography. A good number of Asian, Middle Eastern, and European properties will bump you up, and the room type will visibly change on the reservation page in your account. But this would be a day or two before arrival, not immediately upon booking like the OP is talking about.

Another vote for the Millennium. I was there recently and had a wonderful experience. I found the lounge breakfast and appetizers to be excellent. The views and outside bar are incredible.

As a former Gold (now Silver), I really wouldn't worry about it.
I booked a room only deal the last week for six days. As a lowly Silver, I was not offered any free breakfast. Breakfast in Flow is 770 Bht but you can eat much better on 4th floor of IconSiam for half that price next door if you can be bothered to walk there.
I do not really like IconSiam but you will eat very well there. Even if you pop to Hilton 360 once or twice and pay for it, I am not sure the Executive Lounge is all that or will save you much...

Everyone here is missing out on the real best lounge in Bangkok. Marriott Marquis Queens Park. Blows all other lounges out of the water ! They even have a live cooking station.
