While we can only wish the Grand Budapest Hotel existed in Thailand, these exotic hotels in Thailand offer a certain Wes Anderson vibe plus a little something else for residents.
Because his color palette is so unique that it can be recognized with the naked eye, Wes Anderson has, whether intentionally or not, inspired various places around the world to adopt the look and style of his films. It is safe to say that his aesthetic presence in Thailand is not in short supply as we continue to see impressive 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 movies in Thailand.
