I want a hotel room with a balcony to be able to smoke. About hotel rooms land they're non smoking and that there's a nightly cleanup fee tacked on to the bill at the finish of your stay. And then does this include the balcony? I experience similar it's vague on purpose.
Thank you.

The balcony is included in the hotel room smoking ban considering the smoke itself tin can be a nuisance, wafting into the open up balcony doors of other hotel rooms.
If you must smoke, await for designated areas away from other people's sleeping quarters.

Yep, the balcony is commonly included in the not-smoking rules for the reason that the PP said.

Some hotels have designated smoking floors–perhaps look for one of those. Many also have designated outdoor areas for smoking away from invitee rooms. As a nonsmoker I don't want to sit on my balcony on a nonsmoking floor and take to choke on my neighbor'southward fume. It's a wellness issue for a lot of people.

@sujibear27: I used to work at a hotel and yes, the balustrade is included in non-smoking rooms. Even when people just smoked on the balcony, I can hope it was very obvious that a smoker had been in at that place and the hotel always fined people for it.

Yes, the balcony is included. Fume can/volition drift into your room as well every bit neighboring rooms. Remember how shut neighboring windows/balconies are to your balcony!
Almost hotels will have designated smoking areas somewhere on the bounds, unless it happens to be a 100% smoke-gratis holding.

Non-smoking applies to the balconies every bit well. Just google hotels with smoking rooms. Even if you don't plan on smoking IN the room, those are the only balconies you'll exist able to smoke on.

Former hotel person: Yes you will be fined. Our fee was $250 per night when defenseless. Notice I did not say "if" caught, we always knew. The fine is a combination of discouraging people from trying to sneak one as well equally the cost to the hotel. We would have to take the room out of service for at least a day sometimes two and do a special cleaning. Besides losing acquirement by not being able to sell that room, it was a huge hurting in the ass.
ETA: our hotel did not accept balconies, simply our sister hotel did and you could non fume out there either.

I (used to) frequent the Caribbean area multiples times per year. One resort I stayed at in Jamaica had a no smoking on the balcony policy or face a $250 cleaning fee. They asked you to sign a certificate at check in explaining the policy. This was the only fourth dimension have seen that listed.

There is also the thought that your neighbors out on their balconies volition non capeesh your cigarette smoke. I don't think smokers are aware of how much it smells, because smoking affects your nasal passages and sense of smell. Every bit a visiting nurse I one time walked into a house and immediately asked who the smoker was. You dont want smoking anywhere near someone receiving oxygen. Turns out that my patient had been a smoker, but quit over 5 years ago.
The occupants of the house were surprised, but that's how much it smells to a not-smoker.

@sunburn: Yes to this sentiment. My ILs are all long-time smokers. My SIL seems to think if she douses herself in perfume later on she smokes that we can't tell. I'one thousand currently pregnant and recently we took SIL to dinner and she got in the car and we almost had to pull over because I couldn't handle the aroma. Mother in law & Father-In-Law accept smoked in their house for xxx+ years and information technology'due south so bad at this betoken not only practise we not stay there, only we have to limit the amount of fourth dimension nosotros can even exist inside if nosotros visit. They think we are being dramatic, but I truly believe that they call back it's but not that bad because they're used to it. We accept a dedicated guest suite discrete from our domicile, and we have to go along an ozone machine running into for several days afterwards the ILs leave because everything down to their luggage is permiated in the aroma.

@sunburn: Exactly. There is one other major issue near smoking on a balcony: the possibility of a cigarette butt or ashes falling and causing a burn down or fire to something or someone below. But the major issue is 1 of keeping a smoke-free ambient for others. Designated smoking areas are nowadays out of the way (many hotels don't allow smoking just outside the archway doors equally they have in the by).
OP, yous may desire to fume, only the fume eminating from the cigarette affects others. A smoker's sense of aroma is diminished, and fifty-fifty then, you are used to the smoke, then information technology doesn't affect you like it affects others. But call back about a odour that completely repulses you. Maybe information technology'southward rotten garbage or maybe information technology's the scent of an oil refinery. That's what cigarette fume does to others, including me. I consider it absolutely vile. And none of this is even to mention that fume is harmful, not just unpleasant to exist around.
Every bit an aside, I am glad that many hotels in North America are at present entirely smoke free indoors, without smoking rooms, and the same for restaurants. The smoke actually travels pretty easily.

@sunburn: Agree. And if you lot ever desire to trade-in or sell your motorcar don't fume in it. Information technology's impossible to get the smell out, ever, and a nonsmoker can tell before they even sit down down inside. That'south why the car rental companies too charge a significant fine if yous smoke.

@katebluestone: Your post just reminded me, on my last trip before COVID, I wound upwardly getting a lovely gratis upgrade to a rather overnice suite, as the room that had been originally allocated to me had been occupied by someone who violated the smoking policy and smoked in the hotel room. I could still smell information technology even after their attempts to clean the room (which also involved copious amounts of a scented air freshener, yuck!).

I don't retrieve the policy is vague at all. Would y'all be on that balcony if you didn't hire the room? No? Then information technology is included in the room, and you can't smoke.
