If it just said NO SMOKING... Fair enough... BUT, offering me $150 to be able to smoke... Is different...

If you murder someone, you go to jail for x number of years. Does that make it right to murder someone if you are willing to accept the punishment? No of course not.
If you deliberately cause damage to someone's property, but afterwards agree to pay for the damage, does that make what you did 'right'? No of course not.
The hotel and you have an agreement: They provide a certain service, you agree to pay x amount of money and abide by certain rules.
If you decide to smoke in your room, you are violating the terms of the contract you agreed to. The fact that you knew beforehand how much the other party would charge you in damages, did in no way give you permission to smoke.
