<![CDATA[Only one and a half weeks to go! Labor Day weekend is a game that every hotel wants in on (we know we'll be traveling!), but for this particular holiday roundup, we've chosen to highlight the NYC hotels that we've been following this summer. Either through openings, or news stories, we're sticking with the hotels we know about. Think of it as a "greatest hits" collection, minus the cheesy power ballads. <img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/61268/NolRoom4.jpg" class="top">Almost one month into the game, <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/The+Nolitan+Hotel/local/1665">The Nolitan</a> has been generating some buzz, undoubtedly thanks to its unique, nabe-honoring name. Over Labor Day weekend, rates go as low as $341. And if you remember from our <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2011/7/15/171846/076/hotels/Guests_Will_Cruise_Around_Nolita_On_Their_Nolitan_Branded_Skateboards">tour</a> last month, almost all rooms include cozy little

Miami Beach: How Much Does It Cost To Be A High Roller At The Fontainebleau?

What do Jay-Z, Pitbull, Dwayne Wade and LeBron's mom have in common? They all love the Fontainebleau—and, in the case of Jay and Pitbull, don't mind dropping some major cash there.

Dwayne Wade's Fantasy Camp may be going down at the Miami Beach hotel this weekend, but there's even bigger fish in this pond. It is reported that Jay-Z blew $250,000 on champagne for his Watch the Throne release party. And $50,000 in tips at Scarpetta, where he noshed on posh Italian with his entourage. We shudder to think what kind of numbers were on his room folio.

Along the illustrious Fifth Avenue sit a great many New York mainstays: Bergdorf Goodman, Bryant Park, The Museum of Sex—and a barely noticeable mid-range hotel named after its address. Though we've written about it before, here are two points about Hotel 373 we'd like to drive home today:

· the Starbucks in the lobby will satisfy your caffeine addiction like no other hotel coffee station on the entire island of Manhattan (it's literally under the hotel)

· they still have availability over Labor Day weekend. 'Nuff said.

Baltimore: Fairfield Baltimore Offers Green Rooms for Labor Day Weekend

Eco-conscious travelers heading to Maryland over Labor Day weekend can bunk at Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott - Baltimore Inner Harbor, the city's first green hotel.

The limited-service Fairfield Inns aren't exactly the most exciting of Marriott's brands. But the Baltimore outpost tries to make itself stand out from the ho-hum hotels by monopolizing on its building, converted from a brewery, and adding a bar, and by going green.
