Late Checkout/Walkthrough

The following is a walkthrough of the mission Late Checkout in Grand Theft Auto IV.

Go to the Majestic Hotel in Lower Middle Park. In the lobby, you will find a set of elevators. Call them and you will be brought to the 30th floor. there is roughly 25 men between you and Isaac and the other two targets are on different levels of the penthouse. Fight your way through Isaac's muscle. The first target will be in the kitchen, you can either kill him or spare him. Go up a flight of stairs to find Isaac himself in his bedroom (he'll be sending his girl out; you can kill her or let her go). The third target and some more hitmen will be on the roof. Finish them off and escape the hotel as you will have a two star wanted level. There will still be Jewish mobsters trying to prevent your escape; one way is to flee to the roof and find the window elevator. The other way is to fight through the remaining Jewish Mobsters that respawned and take the elevator back down.

Tips

  • Right after killing Issac Roth, there is a staircase that leads to the roof. If you slowly walk up to the roof and keep an eye on the targets on the right, you can see them gathered around a petrol tank. Take advantage of this incredible tactical disadvantage of your enemies and shoot the tank. Enjoy the cutscene of flaming mobsters falling off the building.
  • An easier way to complete this mission is to leave the front entrance that the mission prompts you to enter. Instead of using the main elevator, go around the back of the hotel into the alley and you will find a window cleaning platform that will take you all the way to the roof of the hotel. You may then kill the diamond dealers from the roof down, allowing you to avoid the hallways of guards on your way to the penthouse. Take the same cleaning platform back down to street level after killing the 3 targets (there will be 3 additional guards on the roof as you leave the penthouse) and escape the area to complete the mission.
  • If you went the pathway up the stairs, when you kill the third target, keep your weapon at the ready, because more guards wait by the kitchen and living room.
  • Dwayne's backup service is useless for this mission. Although Dwayne's men will enter the hotel, they will not board the elevator to go up, and won't ride the window cleaning platform, either.
