Bangkok’s full of aesthetic stays, and you can easily find something to suit your budget. If your vibe leans more pastel and playful with a dash of main character energy, you’ll want to check into Kitsch Hotel Bangkok. This newly opened boutique hotel, launched earlier this year, is all about cute chaos in the best way possible, featuring 23 hotel rooms and 6 private dorms decked out in 19 different themes.
Think cottagecore corners, rooms filled with gigantic teddy bears, and Insta-worthy backdrops at every turn. It’s the dream stay for anyone who loves all things kawaii and over-the-top adorable.

You’ll spot Kitsch Hotel Bangkok from a mile away. Its dollhouse-like facade is impossible to miss. The entrance looks straight out of a storybook, with pastel pink “curtains”, bronze signage, and hand-painted topiary trees flanking the doorway.
Step inside and you’re greeted by a massive, wide-eyed cat sculpture that practically demands a photo. With its black-and-white tiled floors and candy-hued decor, the lobby feels part Parisian patisserie, part fantasyland. Trust us, the lobby sets the tone perfectly for the whimsical stay that awaits upstairs.

When Kitsch Hotel Bangkok says no two rooms are the same, they mean it. The boutique stay features 23 rooms decked out in 19 movie-inspired themes, each one more whimsical than the last. Even the check-in process is on brand – you’ll get a pink, cat-shaped room card with your room number on it, setting the tone for the stay before you’ve even unlocked the door.
One standout is the Pink Pavilion, a fairytale blush escape where everything – from the curtains to the bathtub – is drenched in pastel pink. Styled like an ‘80s dream house, it feels like you’ve just stepped into Barbie’s home. And if you decide not to leave your room the whole day, honestly, we wouldn’t blame you.

Then there’s the Teddy Room, which might just be the hotel’s most iconic space. Home to a gigantic teddy bear that takes up half the room, it’s become a viral hit. Heck, even Thai musician Waruntorn P. filmed her music video here. The checkered armchairs, forest-themed wallpaper, and vintage lighting make it feel like a storybook cabin.
Kitsch Room.

Other themed rooms include the Virgin Dream, soft and whimsical with cloud-like touches; the Kitsch Room, where retro sweetness meets the American Dream with pastel walls and cherry-shortcake vibes; and Forbidden Apple, a moody fairytale hideaway filled with red accents and glossy apples – straight out of a Charlie XCX music video.

Travelling solo doesn’t mean missing out on the fun. At Kitsch Hotel Bangkok, even the dorms are a vibe. Designed for those who love meeting new people without sacrificing style, these themed rooms are anything but basic.
You’ll find dorms like the Glam Squad Chamber, Epic Clubhouse, and All-Star Quarter, each with its own personality – from vintage boarding school aesthetics to varsity-style hangouts. The Epic Clubhouse, for instance, is inspired by classic English private school dorms. It comes with 4 single beds, vintage décor, and that cosy, nostalgic atmosphere you’d expect from a coming-of-age movie.

With just 4 beds per room, it never feels too crowded. It’s ideal for travellers who want both company and comfort. Rates start from THB 3,560 (~S$141.90) a night, making it a chic yet social pick for solo explorers.
Kitsch Hotel Bangkok sits in Ratchathewi, putting you right in the heart of the city’s shopping and nightlife scene. It’s about a 15-minute drive, or a 20-minute walk, to hotspots like Platinum Fashion Mall, Pratunam Night Market, and Palladium Night Market. Getting there’s easy too, with Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) just a 40-minute drive away.
The next time you’re headed for a Bangkok weekend getaway, you know where to stay. With 23 rooms across 19 movie-inspired themes, no stay here is ever the same. So, you can come back again and again for a totally new experience each time. It’s fun, quirky, and unapologetically over the top – just like Bangkok itself.
