Today we celebrate what would have been John Lennon's 74th birthday, where else to visit but the famous scene of Lennon and Yoko Ono's infamous bed-in during March 25 and 31, the presidential suite of Amsterdam Hilton Hotel?
Knowing it will garner a lot of media attention, John and Yoko decided to use the publicity surrounding their marriage on 20 March 1969 to promote world peace. They took to bed for a week between 25-31 March in the presidential suite (Room 702) at the Amsterdam Hilton Hotel where they spent their honeymoon. The couple invited international press into their hotel room every day between 9am and 9pm and spent the day sat in bed talking about peace with signs over their bed reading "Hair Peace" and "Bed Peace". The bed-in was mentioned in "The Ballad of John and Yoko".
At Amsterdam Hilton you can treat yourself to a piece of history by booking the John and Yoko suite. You may not be demonstrating for peace but with all the creature comforts this suite has on offer you are guaranteed a peaceful stay. This suite comes with 1 king bed, complete with luxuriant Egyptian bed linen, and is decorated throughout with John and Yoko memorabilia.
