Plaza Premium Lounges are known to be a cut above the rest (where independent lounges are concerned) but Priority Pass and Lounge Key members will not be able to access them from 01 July 2021. If you currently hold a credit card that offers a complimentary Priority Pass or Lounge Key membership, it will no longer gain you access to Plaza Premium Lounges around the world from the aforementioned date.

If you are based in Singapore and you hold an American Express Platinum Card or an OCBC VOYAGE Card, you will continue to enjoy access to participating Plaza Premium Lounges around the world with your physical card. What this means however is that you may not be able to bring as many guests in (depending on which card you actually hold) to these lounges.

While most Plaza Premium Lounges are quite nice (I really enjoyed the Taipei and Shanghai ones in particular), the admission rates can be quite high as prices typically start from USD 50 for two-hour access.

Hotel Review: Grand Hyatt Guangzhou (Grand Premium Suite) - Great Location but Dated Rooms

Mar 26, 2025

The Grand Hyatt Guangzhou delivers a solid and well-rounded stay experience that represents exceptional value, especially when compared to flashier alternatives in the area like the W Guangzhou. From the spacious Grand Premium Suite with panoramic city views to the consistently high-quality breakfast at The Market Café, the hotel balances comfort, practicality, and service well. While the club lounge is functional but unremarkable in terms of F&B, access to it—along with suite upgrades and late check-out—adds meaningful benefits for Globalist members.
