California hotel opens Pink Floyd suite

Posted June 15, 2014 by Floydian Slip

The Casa Madrona hotel in Sausalito, Calif., has opened to the public the suite where a young Pink Floyd stayed during its first tour of the United States.

Dubbing the second floor suite the Piper Room, the 64-room San Francisco-area hotel is catering to Floyd fans by adorning the suite with photos of the group and a copy of Nick Mason’s coffee table book “Inside Out,” and by playing a Floyd songlist when guests enter the suite.

The band was photographed during its 1967 stay by William Baron on the hotel’s fire escape.

No word on how much the Piper Room costs, but deluxe rooms in the hotel start at $509 a night, with at least one suite going for $10,000 a night.
