Was at the Frankfurt Marriott a couple of weekends ago. Weekend breakfast is in restaurant, but they do have evening snacks and drinks. Not the voucher that is mentioned here.
Was at Rotterdam Marriott last weekend, and the new M Lounge is open, but they are still offering the choice of breakfast in the lounge or the restaurant.

No lounge and Plats had to pay basically Half price for breakfast!
It was the first thing out of the FD mouth as I got one foot in the door. Breakfast not included! He said 10 Euro for plats instead of 18
10% off parking at the garage down the street. 32 Euro a day
Also, PAG was 200 pts or a drink coupon at the bar for both of us.
As of 6/2/18

* Toronto/Marriott Downtown Eaton Centre / CLOSED Weekends & Statuary Holidays / Lounge on ground floor; M-F take a tray to restaurant & get anything from buffet; Sat-Sun get coupons for cont'l brekkie in restaurant or $17 credit per person/$34 for 2 for anything on the menu; i-net terminals; 08/16 update
Slight amendment to this one – at the weekend the coupon is for the full buffet breakfast in the restaurant, not limited to continental only. I didn’t see any option for anything off the menu.
* London (Slough) / Heathrow/Windsor Marriott/ OPEN; key accessible; i-net terminal; no children under age 16 in lounge; lounge currently under renovation; Gold/Plats get free breakfast at the Cast Iron Restaurant. The front desk will provide a voucher for a drink.
Again, a slight amendment for this one. The renovations in the lounge are complete (although I can't say I noticed much/if any changes!). No drink vouchers. Breakfast either in the lounge or in the Cast Iron Restaurant.

Really? I was there earlier this year and they didn't serve the usual canapés and drinks Friday and Saturday night although the lounge was accessible for soft drinks from the fridge.

Some lounges in the UK don't do the drink/food over the weekend but are usually open for soft drinks.
Oh another thing to add for the Heathrow Windsor Marriott is you need to bring your own water bottle with you - there are no bottles in the lounge any more but a couple of taps (like a beer tap) that you can pour your own still/sparking water. Not exactly handy for those that have been travelling (like we were) and don't carry water bottles.

As does the LHR Marriott. But they provide a small bottle of Evian in the room and say to refill that. Sometimes I found it easier to take a paper coffee cup and use that.
I have also seen this in the USA at the LAX Marriott. But, there they specifically provide empty glass bottles in the lounge and say to leave it in your room when you are done.
I suspect we are getting a little off topic for this thread.

The Hotel Arts Barcelona update
I just completed a 5 night stay at The Hotel Arts in Barcelona.. I was told that the Rewards Lounge referred to here no longer exists. Apparently it ceased operating about 2 years ago. My room reservation had club access which was wonderful (yet substantially pricier of course than non-club rooms) so I didn’t need the amenities of a Rewards Lounge myself this time, But I just thought I’d provide an update for future elites staying at this property.

It will be interesting to see what changes will happen to the wiki after 18th August. There are a few posts regarding hotels who are currently up selling full breakfasts (see Ceres 7th June post). Will they still be allowed to do this I wonder? Marriott now says daily breakfast for elites at participating hotels, not daily continental breakfast.

Update Renaissance Haikou Hotel, China
I remember people asking about the lounge in this hotel a while back. Yes, there are the usually hard liquor, red and white wines, and local beers.
The lounge opens 7 days a week from 2:30 pm to 9:30 pm.
2:30 pm - 5:30 pm: Afternoon tea, light snacks, sweets, and local fruits are provided.
5:30 pm - 7:30 pm: Happy hours, 4 to 5 entries, pizza, bread, and a variety of cheeses are provided.
7:30 pm -9:30 pm: Drinks remain available along with nuts, cookies, and fruits.
24-hour accessible with keycard for coffee, water, soda, and fruits.
This is one of the better lounges I have been to.

Post #1 has been updated to include SPG properties based on info in SPG exec lounge thread.
If there are missing properties that is because they were not listed in the SPG thread. I'm scrambling to get the SPG properties added before 8/18, so not have time to visit every country/property website to see if there are some properties missing - aka, at the moment I'm relying on the SPG lounge thread for info.
If you know of SPG properties that aren't listed or have an update on the ones listed, please post in this sticky.
And as always, if you have updates on MAR properties please post that info as well. The MAR properties are up to date in terms of # of properties listed, but always need an update on lounge/breakfast situation.
Many thanks!
Cheers.
