Top 12 themed hotels inspired by your favorite movie or TV series

In many movies, hotels play as important a role as the main characters, creating a special atmosphere and complementing the plot. For example, The Shining, based on the book by Stephen King, features an eerie and empty mountain lodge; Lost in Translation features the famous Park Hyatt Tokyo. In the beloved movie Pretty Woman, starring Julia Roberts and Richard Gere, the luxurious Beverly Wilshire Hotel with its wood paneling, chandeliers, and large hot tub attracts attention, while in Grand Budapest Hotel the entire plot is based on an imaginary pink castle filled with eclectic staff in purple uniforms.

From extravagant and whimsical to eerie, movie-themed hotels create different moods and settings, reflecting scenes or interiors from your favorite movies, TV shows, or cartoons. Such establishments often use authentic décor so that guests staying here can be transported to another, fantastic world of cinema.

In some cases, guests find themselves on a reflected movie set. Hotels can use the connection with the films created on their territory or develop themed rooms, inside which there is an opportunity to feel like a character from your favorite movie masterpiece. Many of these establishments offer special packages that allow you to get the most out of your experience and impressions, or adapt the decor and interior to specific scenes. All you have to do is choose the best option for your next movie adventure using the selection and book a room.
