While we can only wish the Grand Budapest Hotel existed in Thailand, these exotic hotels around the country offer a certain Wes Anderson ambience plus a little bit of something else to the residents.
Since his colour palette is so unique that it can be recognised at a glance, Wes Anderson has inspired, whether intentionally or not, several places around the world to adopt his films’ look and feel. It is safe to say that his aesthetic presence in Thailand is nothing scarce, for we keep seeing stunning architecture and design inspired by his work. Whether you’re looking to film the trendy Wes Anderson TikTok and Instagram videos or not, here are five hotels that remind us of Wes Anderson films in Thailand.
