Are all hotels in Las Vegas going non-smoking?
Far from it, though the tide does seem to be turning.
Locals giants Station Casinos and Boyd Gaming are trying to hold back the no-smoking tide.
Caesars Entertainment seems to have a divided position. While its older properties allow at least a limited amount of in-room smoking, cigarettes, cigars, etc. are banned from The Crowmell — no doubt Caesars wants to slow down the physical degradation of its newest trophy property, and few things age a room quite like the redolence of tar and nicotine.
With very limited exceptions at Mandalay Bay and (for a $300 deposit) Bellagio, MGM Resorts International has gone completely smoke-free … a whale of an undertaking when you consider that it has 13,000 rooms at MGM Grand, Excalibur, and Aria alone. However, it appears to be on the leading edge of the trend.
Other hotels where you can enjoy a smoke-free existence include …
Best Western Casino Royale and (non-gaming) Best Western Plus on St. Rose Parkway
Bluegreen Club 36
Cancun Resort
Candlewood Suite
Cosmopolitan
Courtyard Inn
Delano
Element in Summerlin (enviro-friendly, the hoteliers strive for a 100% property-side)
Hoover Dam Lodge
Hilton Lake Las Vegas
Hawthorn Suites
Holiday Inn
JW Marriott Summerlin
Las Vegas Marriott Suites
Mandarin Oriental (almost goes without saying)
Platinum (has one of the most outstanding spas in Sin City)
Residence Inn Convention Center
SLS Las Vegas (a new-generation property with a clean slate and an intention to keep it that way)
Trump International (designated areas where you can light up)
Westin Las Vegas
If you love Las Vegas, but have been put off by smoky-smelling hotel rooms, the good news is that the no-smoking trend, especially at the newer properties, seems to be gaining steam.
