Receive complimentary breakfast at Luxury Hotels
Very few Four Seasons hotels offer executive club lounges. The properties with club lounges tend to be based in Asia rather than North America. The most popular Four Seasons club lounge for clients of our luxury travel concierge is the club lounge at Four Seasons Sydney. The club lounges at Four Seasons Kuala Lumpur and Hong Kong are also excellent.
It’s worth immediately mentioning that you can get free loyalty style benefits at all Four Seasons hotels including a room upgrade if you book with a luxury travel agent like our luxury travel concierge so please do get in contact to find out more.
Our rates match those on the Four Seasons website, including discounted and special offer rates, but by booking with us, you get extra free benefits, including free breakfast, free room upgrade (subject to availability), a welcome gift, and a $100 resort credit. We offer similar free benefits at over 1,000 other luxury hotels across the world.
1. Four Seasons Maui
Four Seasons Maui is a fabulous hotel but if you want to optimize your fun and make your stay even more unbelievable you might want access to the club lounge at Four Seasons Maui.
The Club Lounge here is only available to guests staying on the Club Floor at Four Seasons Maui. This exclusive Club Lounge offers a private, relaxing space to enjoy breakfast and unwind with afternoon tea or evening cocktails. A dedicated staff and concierge team are on hand to cater to every need. We have reviewed how to get the best discount at all Four Seasons hotels previously. The same tips are relevant for booking Club Level rooms at Four Seasons Maui.
If you book a club-level room, you can access the Club Lounge. These rooms are on the eighth floor and when you book these rooms, you get a private key that will enable you to access the elusive Club Lounge. This truly is an exclusive club as there are only 22 rooms, plus 3 Ocean Front 1 Bedroom Suites and 1 Deluxe Ocean View Executive Suite on the Club Level.
Ocean View or Deluxe Ocean View Club rooms are the same size and decor as non-Club Floor rooms, but the views and access to the Club Lounge make your experience of the hotel so much better. To be clear, you can’t pay to add club-level access to your room at Four Seasons Maui. Before your stay, you must book the club floor rooms to gain access to this exclusive level. These rooms are not cheap, but considering what you get, they are well worth the splurge.
When you arrive, you are not checked in with the rest of the guests and are instead whisked straight to the lounge, where you are checked in with leis and cocktails (or whatever drink you prefer).
Beyond the private check-in, the lounge is open from six in the morning to eleven in the evening, with food & drinks available throughout the day. The food includes a cold breakfast buffet, snacks, beverages, afternoon tea, sunset cocktails & pupus, after-dinner desserts, and nightcaps. These rooms are not cheap but considering what you get, they are well worth the splurge.
At the end of your stay, the Club Level is particularly useful as it lets you enjoy the resort post-checkout. Checkout is usually at midday and without club lounge access, you can use the Aloha Suite, with showers, storage, and seats, to wash up before leaving. But the Aloha Suite can get crowded. If you have club lounge access you can use the club lounge until you leave. It can feel like an extra day at the hotel.
2. Four Seasons Sydney
Four Seasons Sydney has an executive club lounge. It’s one of the best club lounges in Sydney and you can pay a fee to add this Sydney club lounge to your room rate (subject to availability).
The iconic Four Seasons Hotel Sydney is ideally located overlooking Sydney Harbour at Circular Quay – a short walk to the Opera House, Harbour Bridge, and the historic Rocks district.
The hotel features the city’s most stylish accommodations with remodeled guest rooms offering clean and crisp fixtures blended to exude a contemporary luxurious residential ambiance. The new-look rooms are very fitting for a luxury Sydney hotel of this caliber and capture the essence of Sydney itself.
The rooms have been designed to be uplifting and have a local feel. Each room will be uncluttered and contemporary, ideally suited to the needs of the modern traveler, leisure guest, and business person alike. The layout of each room will allow guests to make optimum use of the stunning views that take in the city, Sydney Opera House, and the unmistakable Harbour Bridge. Each room has the latest technology, including 42-inch LCD televisions, Bose speakers, and wireless internet access.
In addition to offering the city’s most stylish guest rooms and suites, the Hotel has two spectacular entertaining outlets: a bespoke neighborhood street-front bar, Grain, and a modern Australian restaurant, MODE.
There are two ways to get club lounge access at Four Seasons Sydney. Firstly you can book any room and then add club lounge access for a fee. As of April 2022, access to Lounge 32 by adding it to your room at Four Seasons Sydney cost an additional $140 AUD per day for two guests. To add Lounge 32 access for one guest the price is $80 AUD per day.
Upgrading to the newly refurbished Executive Club will enable you to relax by Sydney’s largest outdoor swimming pool with cabanas and a Jacuzzi.
Alternatively, if you book a Full Harbour Four Seasons room, this usually includes the club access as long as club lounge is specified in the description.
The Four Seasons Lounge 32 executive club lounge includes breakfast, light snacks, evening canapes, and food, all in a private, residential-style haven of luxury, reserved for guests with Lounge 32 access.
Meet friends, family, or colleagues on our 32nd floor for breakfast, drinks, or private conversation while overlooking the city and harbor. It’s definitely worth paying the extra and treating yourself.
3. Four Seasons Kuala Lumpur
During a recent stay Four Seasons Kuala Lumpur, we had access to their Kuala Lumpur Executive Club Lounge on the 7th floor of the hotel. This vast lounge covers the whole floor and features various seating arrangements, from dining tables to living room-style lounges pictured above.
There is also an amazing outdoor patio that overlooks the city skyline, perfect for sunset drinks. This is easily one of the best views in Kuala Lumpur that any executive lounge offers.
The lounge serves three meals a day; breakfast, afternoon tea, and evening cocktails, and features a generous and aesthetically beautiful spread with everything from hot food to pastries. There is also a chef manning a live cooking counter to freshly prepare a few hot dishes (see pictures on the scroller above). Plus, I was very impressed by the Pol Rogers champagne served in the lounge!
The extensive spread of food and fine drinks are more than enough to keep you full and watered throughout your stay. The quality and flavors are impressive. We loved the outside space in the lounge.
The Four Seasons Kuala Lumpur Executive Lounge is definitely my top choice for hotel Club Lounges in Kuala Lumpur and you can read our listing of the best executive club lounges at hotels in Kuala Lumpur for more details on which hotel to choose based on its Club Lounge.
It is worth mentioning that this lounge does let children in. The lounge is spacious, and the presence of children is unlikely to cause a problem for guests who want quiet. It means that the lounge has a more lively and friendly atmosphere. Many hotel club lounges in Kuala Lumpur ban children who are under 12, so if you are traveling as a family, it is worth checking this out before you book your club room with executive lounge access.
4. Four Seasons Hong Kong
The Four Seasons Hong Kong Executive Club Lounge is on the 45th floor of the hotel, which is the top floor. It has an unbelievable wraparound balcony offering views of the harbor and the Intercontinental in West Kowloon. We love this balcony as it gives us the opportunity to get out of the air-conditioned environment that is so difficult to escape in Hong Kong and breathe in some fresh air.
Inside, this 24-hour lounge means you can enjoy all-day drinks, including beer, wine, soft drinks, and Taittinger champagne. There are substantial food offerings, with a particularly good breakfast but also light meals throughout the day, as well as unique amenities such as afternoon tea and evening cocktails. The lounge also boasts a library, internet access, and a private meeting room.
Additionally, the lounge provides a personal concierge service to help guests with their needs. Staff will arrange additional services such as last-minute garment pressing to setting up an urgent business meeting.
5. Four Seasons Hotel Guangzhou
Four Seasons Hotel Guangzhou claims the top third of the 103-storey Guangzhou IFC, one of the world’s tallest skyscrapers that opened in 2012. Rising 103 stories above the Pearl River, the new Guangzhou International Finance Center (GZIFC) building’s top 30 floors are one of the best places to experience Guangzhou in the cosseted world of the Four Seasons Hotel Guangzhou. The famed Guangzhou Opera House is right next door to the Hotel, with a full calendar of concerts and other performances.
From the ground floor, guests of Four Seasons Hotel Guangzhou take dedicated express elevators to the 70th-floor lobby, where a dramatic three-meter (ten-foot) red steel sculpture by Australian artist Matthew Harding appears to float on a sea of watery glass, reflecting the astounding ceiling window 30 floors above. The incredible naturally-lit atrium, surrounded by restaurants and rooms above, is higher than the top of St. Paul’s Cathedral in London and New York’s Statue of Liberty.
Throughout the hotel, a carefully curated collection of paintings, prints, and sculptures by contemporary international artists enhance the sleek modern interiors created by HBA/Hirsch Bedner and Associates. Highlights include glass sculptures in Yu Yue Heen restaurant by Australian Clare Belfrage; a wood sculpture in Tian Bar by Richard Hutton of the Netherlands; mixed-media sculptures by the American team of Jeremy Newman and Allison Ciancibelli in Caffe Mondo; paintings by Korean artist Yun Hee Toh in the Executive Club Lounge; nine sculptures by Yang Don Dong throughout the Hotel; and Lee Man Seng’s unique Chinese seal-inspired timber sculptures in Yu Yue Heen.

Escaping the urban din 69 floors below on the streets of Guangzhou, guests will find a softly lit, gently perfumed retreat, a Heavenly Garden of Flowers at Hua Spa, where they can relax, rejuvenate, and simply be pampered. The experience at Hua Spa is inspired by flowers, Hua in Mandarin, from the light scent of geranium and rose as one enters to the lavish blend of indigenous flowers in signature therapies and treatments.
The 1,070 m² (11,517 ft²) Hua Spa also offers a water-based treatment area with a Vichy-style shower, rhassoul mud chamber, crystal steam room, and laconium in the women’s area, plus herbal steam bath, Swedish and Finnish sauna, and ice fountain in the men’s area.
