The W Fort Lauderdale Gets Cited for Noise Violation
Uh-oh. This does not bode well for the W Fort Lauderdale. The Sun-Sentinel reports that the hotel's nightclub Whiskey Blue has been cited by the city for a noise violation. Specifically, the loud music can be heard by the neighbors after 11pm.:
The police have been called multiple times, city officials said. Most recently, on March 14 noise was heard wafting from the club after midnight, the city said.
We're guessing the rumored appearance of the "Jersey Shore" crew at the hotel over the weekend didn't really help with that noise violation ever. You know how those folks like to beat the beat!

Bienvenido a 2010: The Five Best Hotels for New Year's Eve in Miami
So, 2009 was one of the worst years we've seen since the Great Depression, huh? Now, we know Miami got that memo, what with its glut of condos, foreclosures, and, oh yeah, hotels in financial crisis—but you wouldn't know it from the way New Year's Eve is shaping up at the beach this year. Maybe it's a case of denial, but whatever the reason, New Year's Eve is as huge as ever for the non-stop party town.
Even the hotels with the most visible money troubles, the Fontainebleau and the Gansevoort South, are sold out on the 30th and 31st—Lady GaGa is performing poolside at the Fontainebleau and, uh, Brody Jenner, is the "star" attraction at the Gansevoort. Lots of other hotspots like the W South Beach and Ocean Drive favorite The Clevelander are also sold out, but if you've got cash to burn and want to dance your denial all the way into 2010, here are Five Hot Hotel NYE Parties in Miami—at places that still had rooms available when we checked this weekend.

Party Hard in Cabo for $60 a Night at Tesoro Resort
Aside from our own misgivings about Mexico, this deal is perfect for the recently laid-off employee who wants to drown their sorrows in tequila, sand and tanning oil. Tesoro Resorts in Cabo are offering "crash" rooms for $60 a night. Why do they call them "crash" rooms? Because dummy, that's all you are going to need them for. The rest of the time you will probably be drinking your face off. Case in point, this copy is straight from the hotel website:
Tesoro is stumbling distance to all the best bars and restaurants in Los Cabos including No Worrys, Cabo Wabo, Body Shot Nightclub, and Nowhere Bar.
And if you're lucky hopefully you won't be crashing in your own room, eh? Also being black out drunk helps you forget that you're in a $60 hotel room in Mexico.
Use code word "crash" for bookings from now until February. 28, 2008.

Sweet Suite :: The Ivy Hotel's Star Suite Sports a Stripper Pole
Bloomberg's Jason Harper went inside the fairly-new Ivy Hotel in San Diego -- which touts itself as an "adult playground" -- and found chains, stripper poles and, surprisingly, good service.
Though he didn't stay in the Star Suite (a reality show was filming there at the time; we hope it was something as awesome as I Love New York), he mentioned the swank space is known for its "adult" features: two king-size bunk beds decorated with chains, a six-person shower and, yes, an elevated stripper pole.

2007 Festival Hotels: Shirts Off Breakfast at Hotel Glória
Carnival (Feb 17 - 20) is in full swing, and according to The Guardian, plenty of American soldiers on leave are turning the sensual Brazilian celebration into a sexual conquest game.
Companies like Tours Gone Wild make a mint packing soldiers and other tourists into Rio de Janeiro hotels this time of year, and it takes a toll on the hotels.
One such Carnival party hotel is Hotel Gloria. On the Saturday of Carnaval the Gloria hosts an insane costume contest early in the evening, which is considered one of the best Carnaval parties by many long time attendees.
Heaven for doughboys, no doubt, however, guests of the hotel see the post party fallout year round:
Our room was a huge disappointment. Paint off the walls, tv entertainment system not working.
Lots of loud Brazilian guests with getto blasters at the pool. Staff did nothing. People with bare upper bodies at breakfast.
Where we are from, we call these places topless donutshops, in Brazil sounds like they call 'em "luxury hotels".
We are sure Hotel Gloria cleans up nice at some point after Carnaval. After all, they have a helipad on the roof, and guests who check-in via helicopter tend to like a clean room.

Ibiza Party Hotel Goes 'Til 6 In Tha Morning
If you are going to Ibiza, then let's face the facts, you are probably looking for a party hotel.
Figueretas is one of the quieter spots on the island, about a mile from Ibiza town, however Figueretas Es Vive Hotel and the all out pool parties they throw are not for those seeking relaxation.
This is the kind of place you stay when you want to pre-party, go clubbing with gaggles of hotel mates, then post party back at the hotel.
By day the Es Vive pool is packed with bikini clad all night revelers in recovery mode and by about 3am the hotel party begins to take hold. A Smirnoff bar and an onsite DJ help the club kids along.
Don't book one of the 55 Ikea clad rooms expecting rest and relaxation, and it goes without saying you best be looking elsewhere if you are on a family holiday. If you really want to impress your fellow clubbers, book one of the two corner suites--huge showers, multiple balconies, and an ocean view.
If you book during the off season (January - February) the staff will give you a 10% discount.
