Who doesn’t love a bit of Wes Anderson panache? If you’ve been to Bar Luce in Milan and Molitor in Paris and are looking for some more recent additions, here are a few for you to try. Know what these all have in common? They’re FUN! Most have formica furniture and a sorbet-inspired palette, too.
In Miami, the new Goodtime Hotel by Pharrell and nightlife don Dave Grutman recently launched with sherbert-coloured everything (pool deck, rooms and more). Their model seems to be reasonable-ish rooms and numerous hospitality areas to hang out and have a good time in.
