Young girls and adult women alike squeal at the sight of her. They queue for hours, overnight even, just to get their paws on her merchandise. Even Avril Lavigne wrote a song inspired by her. She’s none other than Hello Kitty, the mouthless cat-like cartoon character with a massive cult following.

I say cat-like only because her creators claim she isn’t one. Apparently, she’s a “little girl”.

But whether you consider her a feline or otherwise, it’s indisputable that anything Hello Kitty-related sends humans into a frenzy – be it clothes or airplanes. Fellow Kitty White fanatics, feast your eyes on these excruciatingly kawaii Hello Kitty-themed hotel rooms in Asia you’ll wanna book right away.

 

1. Lotte Hotel, Jeju – from $411/night

 

For those who didn’t know: there’s a Hello Kitty Island in Korea. It’s not an actual island on its own, but rather, an entire museum that pays good homage to the character – with life-sized sculptures, a 3D theatre, and tidbits on her history.

If you’re visiting that pink paradise, you might as well go all out and book a stay at Lotte Hotel, about 30mins away via public transport. Their Hello Kitty Character Rooms (from $411/night) can fit a party of 3, with 1 double and 1 single bed each.

Whether you fancy yourself as a princess or more of a lady, they’ve got room designs that’ll appeal to any HK-lovin’ lass. The Kitty Princess Room has a predominantly bubblegum pink colour scheme, with elegant canopy netting above each bed’s headboard.

The Kitty Ladies Room, on the other hand, is a tad more grown up, with a touch of modern boudoir glamour in hot pink and black. Guys, pay attention – this is perfect for whisking your Sanrio-crazy girlfriend off for an intimate sojourn.

2. Hotel De Art, Selangor Section 7 – $76/night for 4 people

 

Hotel De Art is reportedly Malaysia’s first art-themed hotel – so you can expect the rooms to come in eclectic styles. The Art Family Deluxe with 2 queen beds is affordably priced at $76/night – divide that by the max capacity of 4 and you’ll be paying less than $20 per sleep.

This Hello Kitty one is delicate-looking and unostentatious, with sweet cartoon wallpaper and simple white Victorian-inspired bed frames. Perfect if you’re into princessy vibes but don’t wanna go too over-the-top. A Hello Kitty night light beside each bed adds a lovely touch as well.

3. Keio Plaza Hotel, Tokyo from $503/night

 

It’d be a crime for the capital of Japan not to have any Hello Kitty-themed hotels; Sanrio is a Japanese brand, after all. Tokyo is already home to a Hello Kitty cafe, Sanrio Puroland, and countless stores touting Hello Kitty merch. Now, enter Keio Plaza Hotel (from $503/night) with its themed rooms.

If you can’t stomach a room that’s full of all pink everything but still want a dose of Kitty cuteness, the Kitty Town Room will be your cup of tea. While it’s completely splashed in colour, the tones used are mostly pastel, so it’s very easy on the eyes.

But for the traditionalists, there’s also the Princess Kitty Room with the usual girly aesthetic. It even comes with a velvety plush chair shaped like a stiletto shoe.

So, this one’s a little far out. But if you’re completely smitten with the character, you probably wouldn’t mind travelling all the way to Yinrun Jinjiang Castle Hotel in Anji, China, for a stay at its Hello Kitty Deluxe Suite (from $209/night). With gold embossed details, drapey curtains in blush, and chandeliers on both the walls and ceiling, this room is fit for royalty.

And if the hotel’s name is any indication, the building itself looks like a European castle straight out of a fairytale.

There’s an indoor swimming pool here, you’ll probably be busy spending most of your time at the Hello Kitty Park that’s a mere 5-minute walk away. Much like Disneyland, this theme park will have you enjoying parades, rides, and live performances – but Sanrio-related, of course!

6. Hotel Jen Puteri Harbour, Johor – from $211/night

 

Hotel Jen Puteri Harbour has THE most diverse range of Hello Kitty-themed rooms – surprisingly beating that of any hotel in Japan, where the cartoon icon hails from. It’s our luck then, that it’s right across the border, just a stone’s throw from Hello Kitty Town in JB.

The Deluxe Rooms here start from $211/night, with either 1 king or 2 single beds, and each one has a long sofa by its window so you can admire the scenery outside as you recline.

If you’d like to strike a compromise and spare your hapless boyfriend from 50 shades of pink, some of the rooms come in other colours too – such as a calming ocean blue one with nautical vibes to match.

When you stop fawning over your room enough to venture outside, you can head over to the spacious gym for a workout. The hotel also boasts an infinity pool with lounge chairs overlooking the tranquil harbour below.

7. Harvia Suites, Jarkata – from $286/night

Admittedly, the themed Family Suites (from $286/night) at Harvia Suites aren’t the most sophisticated – the sheets look rather like pasar malam knockoffs, the bed bunting is suspiciously similar to that of Lotte Hotel’s, and there’s a copious amount of nothing but pink, which can be overwhelming for some.

Nevertheless, these rooms can fit up to 3 adults, and contain enough Kitty furnishing to excite a less critical fan.

Pay attention to the details and you’ll start gaining more appreciation for the room. It’s not just anywhere that you can enjoy having a Hello Kitty-shaped mirror, matching hydraulic chair, and castle-shaped cupboard all in one place.

Hello Kitty-themed hotels in Asia

 

Short of transforming your own pad into a Hello Kitty shrine (see point #5 in this article), staying in a comfy hotel room surrounded by all things Kitty-related is the next best thing for a hardcore fan.

Normally, people pick their holiday destination before they start choosing hotels – but in this case, we’d totally make an exception and do things the other way round.
