Montreal, Quebec
This is the room that John Lennon and Yoko Ono stayed in on their honeymoon, where they had their "bed-in" and recorded "Give Peace a Chance". Apparently they wrote lyrics and taped them to the walls. Lots of people came to visit them in the room, including Tommy Smothers, who was sent to find a guitar.
Ever notice how the acoustics in that song are kind of odd? That's because it was actually recorded in this hotel room #1742. It's now the Fairmont Queen Elizabeth Hotel.
