nyc hotels that allow smoking?

[doodlebugg 10]

Does anyone know where I can find a list of hotels in NYC that still have designated smoking rooms? I tried googling it but maybe a list doesn't exist. Any travel agents in the audience today?

Good luck! Not going to be easy.

There was a bit on the news the other night about unlicensed hotels. That would probably be the best bet

You mean ones with an hourly rate?

No there was one of those silly Fox expose scandal stories about a guy who was refusing to allow New York Residents to stay in his hotel, because of some local by-laws that allow a person to basically squat there for next to nothing, because the place didn't have "hotel" status it was classed as residential.

It's hard to find anywhere in NYC that you can smoke except for out on the street. We were there back in November...no smoking sections anywhere.

we stayed at Days Inn and they had a few smoking rooms (my mom smokes)

It would probably easier to find a hotel with a smoke-filled room

I have been looking too! Its funny you posted this. It has been VERY difficult. We will be there at the end of May and my husband smokes. I have seen the Days Inn on Broadway and 94th Street (I think) Close to Columbia University. I may be staying at the Club Quarters in Midtown and they do have some smoking rooms available at THAT location. Good luck!

Yeah I have seen a few here and there that have them but I just wondered if there was a comprehensive list somewhere so I didn't have to hen peck all the hotels. I bet there is somewhere like on a smokers message board or something...if those exist.

All Marriott and Westins are nonsmoking only. That's about all I know. I found the Grand Hyatt (which quite a few have been winning for $120-140 range/night on priceline according to betterbidding.com and they do offer smoking rooms but I guess I'll have to look and see what the other choices are in case we win a different one. I think the Doubltree has smoking rooms too but they're too expensive for the time we're going.

Thanks guys!

I've stayed at that Days Inn and I can confirm that they do have smoking rooms, since I was put in one and then had to request a non-smoking room.

The Milford Plaza Hotel has smoking floors - it's on 8th Avenue, right in the theatre district. I remember it from when I was looking for hotels online for my trip last year.

I don't think it is one of the better hotels, but I don't think it is one of the worst.

Wow I never thought of the Days Inn. Pretty cheap and really all you need is a bed there since who the heck stays in the room all day when you're in NYC.

I want to go to a play since he's never been to one. I also want to visit whatever the section that has a lot of Egyptians. Little Egypt? I dunno...I have to research that. Would be cool to get koshari on the street again!

I've stayed there, it's not too bad.
