''Even when he didn't lodge there, nobody else was allowed to stay there,'' according to David Berenblit, marketing manager at the auction house.
Watch:Frank and Barbara Sinatra's rare personal items go up for auction
While his gold-seated toilet was sold was $4,250, his ''basic'' marble toilet seat was sold for $1,800.
The toilets had some ''gravitas attached'' because they were Frank Sinatra's and thus, they ''outperformed'', said Berenblit.
The toilets give a glimpse of the lavish lifestyle of the singer who was one of the most influential artists of the 20th century.
The fancy toilets were the only items highly sought for.
The item that was sold for the highest price was a signed Enid Yandell fountain that bagged $33,000.
The baby grand piano and the Ferdinand Berthoud clock owned by him fetched $7,000 and $13,000 respectively.

All 197 items that had been shortlisted for the auction got sold at it.
Even after 22 years of his death, Sinatra is still loved by his fans.
