Non-smoking sign

A relative needs this translated into Chinese for their hotel. Unfortunately it escapes my Chinese level, I am terrible at translating. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated :) 

"In compliance with Law 42/2010 and in order to maintain our facilities, this hotel is a smoke-free space. In case of detecting that you have smoked in the room, an additional charge of €100 will be

made to cover the cleaning and deodorization work.

Thank you for not smoking."

Here's my attempt:

根据国家法律,为了维护酒店的设施,禁止吸烟。违规者将被罚款100欧元,用于清洁和除臭工作。
感谢不吸烟。

I am intrigued that it is so long. Short and sweet might be better unless its a legal requirement.

 

No smoking - 100 euro fine.

True, but Chinese style is often, though not always, to use a detailed legalistic notice to scare the masses using the power of the state.

 

Tremble and Obey.

Yes, there are similarly long-winded announcements about not smoking, in English and Mandarin, on the bullet trains.

 

I've heard that some of them now even reference social credit.
