Not able to update the wiki. You can add the Calgary Airport Marriott to the list, the Mayflower in DC and the New York Marriott at the Brooklyn Bridge

No. The Mayflower Hotel, Autograph Collection has a traditional club lounge on the 8th floor, not an M Club Lounge (or anything resembling an M Club Lounge). At least that's how it was when I stayed there this year. The hotel's website does not indicate that anything has changed. If I'm mistaken, please provide a link.

Yes. The New York Marriott at the Brooklyn Bridge has a large M Club Lounge adjacent to its Brooklyn Pantry, one level up from street level. When I stayed there this year, it was my first experience with an M Club Lounge. It's open 24 hours a day.

We stayed a night at the Calgary property in Sept on our way to the Canadian Rockies specifically to try the M club. Unfortunately the M club was a joke. Pathetic food offerings both the evening and the breakfast the next morning. Gained access as Golds but definitely would not pay to gain access. Hyatt House or Hyatt Place would have better breakfast both in quality and in quantity of items offered, and they are free to every guest.

At the Calgary Airport M Lounge
 
We found the lounge here at the Marriott to be very nice and a good value. It is on the 7th floor and overlooks some of the airport operations and has a good view of downtown and the distant mountains. There was a charge because we are not elite but we had plenty of food last night and a full breakfast this morning for two people. Try it out!

The Marriott website says this location (Airport) has a Concierge lounge, not an M Club Lounge. Did this change recently?

They definitely called it an M Club lounge. I don’t usually stay at the Marriott so I’m not sure what difference there would be from a concierge lounge.

I just added the new Houston Marriott Marquis to the Wiki. It had an absolutely massive M Club with a pretty good breakfast, evening, and dessert spread. There were also a good collection of snacks to go at all times as well as a good selection of drinks. Alcohol was at a bar at your expense (I can't remember if there was complimentary beer).

Been a long time since I’ve been at a property with an M. First was SFO airport years ago. Was that the first? Anyways, at CVG and was kinda shocked at $8 for a cab or $22 a glass for a red blend.

The majority of M Clubs I’ve been to are located in the lobby which feels like it’s accessible to anyone that is sneaky enough to piggyback on qualified guests. I like the exclusivity of being on the top floor like the LAX Marriott.

I was there in May and the Lounge is on the small side, considering the volume of people that have access. Breakfast was quite good with scrambled eggs, potatoes, sausage, oatmeal, fuit, a variety of breads and cheeses, espresso machine, etc. After brekkie they put out danishes and a bucketful of chocolates. In the evenings they have enough variety and plenty enough to make a meal. They also unlock the wine boxes, white and red only, as well as the beer keg; they “prefer” to pour it for you. Overall a very good experience.

I suspect the new location allows a property to add an extra room or two instead of having a lounge take up valuable real estate. Remember, Marriott's customers aren't the guests, but rather the hotel owner. It also allows a lounge to theoretically offer better food since the lobby-level M Club lounges often adjoin the hotel restaurant's kitchen.

Having it on the Lobby level also allows it to feel “exclusive”. People see it, want to go in it, feel special. So they will make an effort to become a loyal Marriott member or pay $$ to go in. When it’s on another level, nonmembers never see it. It’s advertising for Marriott. Very smart.

This is very much like when you pass an airline’s lounge at the airport. They have a grand luxurious entrance and allow you to “glimpse” inside. They’re appealing to those on the inside of the club as well as those on the outside.

Are all M Clubs accessible to Golds as well as Platinums members now? And does anyone know if the same applies to international Marriotts? Specifically, the Marriott Marquis Queen's Park in Bangkok. Thanks in advance.
