OK. I have Diamond status, at least through March and I must say that it is less than stellar. I have gotten lounge privileges and breakfasts which we were permitted to eat in the main restaurant.
I have limited experience but I think I have about six stays and have never gotten an upgrade. I guess it's never been "available." To contrast I am Accor Platinum and always get upgrades, often double and once the Presidential Suite! Even in Ritz Carlton with zero stays I got a nice upgrade just for being a member!
The reason I'm asking is I can book a cheap room and get club access and (maybe) an upgrade, or book a better room and pay more. Any suggestions or advice?
