How to smoke in Macau hotels?

If you have an ashtray, you can smoke outdoors. There is usually a special smoking room, just ask.

If you smoke in some places, it will trigger a smoke alarm, and if there is smoke, it will keep barking. Moreover, Macao's tobacco control laws stipulate that if hotels do not actively discourage smoking, they will also bear joint liability after being discovered.

Sometimes you will happen to meet the inspectors from the Tobacco Control Office or the inspectors from the Health Bureau. I won't say hello to the hotel, and then I'm likely to be caught red-handed and have a chance to be on the evening news.
