Well, in the context of airports, I've never heard these referred to by any other names.

See e.g.:

https://www.gatwickairport.com/at-the-airport/flying-out/Airport-lounges/

or

https://www.heathrow.com/airport-guide/terminal-facilities-and-services/lounges

The term seems also to be common in the context of railways:

At Stations

The First Class lounges are open Monday to Friday and are a great place to work or relax while you're waiting for a train. They offer complimentary refreshments, WiFi, fax and phone services are available.

Lounges are available at:

    London's St Pancras International on the upper concourse, near the statue of Sir John Betjeman
    Nottingham Platform 4 / 5
    Derby on Platform 4
    Leicester on Platform 3
