Ritz-Carlton Gold and Plat members do NOT get lounge access (you get 3 upgrades with the RC Visa though). You can't even be upgraded into a Club level room

Complimentary Room Upgrade
It is our priority that you enjoy the utmost in comfort. So when a more desirable room is available upon your arrival, you may anticipate a complimentary upgrade. Suites and Club Level room are exempt from this benefit.

Miami Beach / Winter Haven, Autograph Collection / NO LOUNGE; Coupons for cont'l breakfast for Gold/Plats daily; 08/09/13 update
This is still correct, just want to clarify: the cont'l breakfast is for TWO people - that is, ONE breakfast for TWO people, not one cont'l breakfast per person. It's 2 slices of toast and 3 mini croissants (plain, chocolate, and raisin when I was there).
OR you can apply $7.55 per person to something else on the menu. I just added some eggs or meat to my con't brekkie each day. It was just a few dollars.
I have to say only applying $7.55 per person is really low, esp since I was alone. The waitress said the hotel has been having "issues" with this - lots of people are complaining.

Update re Breakfast
Pompano Beach, FL
Pompano Beach Ft Lauderdale Marriott
No longer offers free breakfast to Platinums - learned recently when talking about future stay, this perk dropped sometime in early 2014. No lounge - this is a resort property

Renaissance LAX
Lounge closed on Friday evenings (and presumably also on Sat / Sun) - breakfast at the restaurant provided for Gold members. No drinks in the evening in lieu of a closed lounge, though.

Denver / Renaissance / CLOSED; COUPONS for Golds/Plats (pick them up at front desk); 10/31/14 update
As a Plat I got coupon (saying continental) but told to use it for buffet. during the week when CL was open. Thus I had a choice. Morning CL is pretty standard, evening I think it is nice selection and could make a meal out of.

If you don't receive this card, ask for it. The desk clerk didn't realize I was gold at first.
