Wes Anderson's film was just simply a solid piece of art, without a doubt. Personally speaking I think Stefan Zweig has a more subtle and detail oriented writing style, he would put tons of words constructing the back story and the environment of a scene, whereas in Wes Anderson's film all I remember seeing was just huge chunks of colors and the flashy cinematography and extremely stylized editing. Both sides of works are excellent, just different execution.
Wes Anderson loves simplifying visual messages and mush it into his tinted class-like color filters. I love love love the way he organizes and stages miscellaneous props and characters, and pan shots everything. In the Grand Budapest Hotel for example, Wes smartly visually differentiate main characters to the background by making them wear saturated clothes, and although the villains do wear black, often times there're still a hint of red here and there. He is also an expert on communicating through the negative shapes. He's just so good at telling a story with a striking visual language and quirkiness which often times viewers get lost in his ocean of kaleidoscope and forget to look back at whom he's inspired by.
