OZO x Benzilla Turns Travel Memories Into Collectable Luggage Art

A new collaboration with Thai street artist Benzilla gives travelers another reason to collect their way across OZO hotels in Thailand and Malaysia

Some travelers collect postcards. Others keep boarding passes, fridge magnets, or an ever-growing camera roll. And then there is the suitcase itself — gradually covered in stickers, scuffs, and tags that reveal where it has been.

OZO is tapping into that nostalgia with OZO x BENZILLA, a collaboration with acclaimed Thai street artist Benzilla that turns travel memories into collectable luggage art.

The limited-edition series features four destination-inspired luggage stickers starring Benzilla's signature LOOOK character. Guests can collect a sticker with each eligible stay, effectively turning their luggage into a visual record of their journeys with OZO.

The collaboration forms part of ONYX Hospitality Group's 60th anniversary celebrations under its “More of What You Love” philosophy and brings together OZO's “Unpack Good Vibes” approach with its Local Pulse concept, which encourages travelers to connect with the personality, culture, and everyday life of a destination.

Meet LOOOK on the Road

For the collaboration, Benzilla has taken his instantly recognizable LOOOK character on the road, interpreting the personalities of OZO destinations through his distinctive street-art aesthetic.

The result is a series of four collectable designs created to travel beyond the hotel itself. Instead of another souvenir destined for a drawer, the stickers are designed to become part of guests' luggage — and perhaps pick up a few scratches and stories of their own along the way.

It is the latter that drives the Benzilla collaboration, translating the places travelers visit into something tangible they can carry on to wherever they go next.

OZO North Pattaya: Beach and City Energy in One Trip

For a quick getaway from Bangkok, OZO North Pattaya puts travelers close to North Pattaya Beach while keeping the city's restaurants and lifestyle attractions within easy reach.

Days can be spent exploring Pattaya before heading back for a swim at SPLASH, a workout at TONE, or food and drinks at EAT and THIRST.

It makes an easy base for travelers who want to mix beach time with the buzz of one of Thailand's liveliest coastal destinations rather than choosing between the two.

OZO Phuket: Surf, Swim and Explore Kata

In Phuket, OZO places guests just moments from Kata Beach, one of the island's best-known spots for beach days and surfing.

The location makes it easy to head out for water activities or explore the surrounding neighborhood, while the hotel itself comes with a lagoon pool, children's pool, water slides, and play areas that make it particularly suitable for families.

Guests can also eat at EAT and Prego, relax at CHILL, or fit in a workout at TONE before heading back out to explore Phuket.

OZO Chaweng Samui: Wake Up by the Beach

OZO Chaweng Samui brings the island experience right to the doorstep, sitting directly on Chaweng Beach.

The sea can become the center of the day here: start with the beach, cool off at the SPLASH swimming pool, explore Koh Samui when the mood strikes, and return for drinks at BEACH BAR or a casual meal at STACKed Burger Samui.

Its location also works for travelers who want the freedom to experience Chaweng's energy while still being able to slow things down and settle into island mode.

OZO George Town Penang: Street Art, Heritage and Food

The OZO journey extends beyond Thailand to Malaysia, where OZO George Town Penang offers a contemporary base for discovering one of Southeast Asia's most characterful heritage cities.

UNESCO-listed George Town is made for exploring on foot, with street art, historic architecture, multicultural neighborhoods, and a food culture shaped by generations of Malay, Chinese, Indian, and other influences.

After a day outside, travelers can head up to the rooftop SPLASH swimming pool for views across the city, dine on Malaysian and international dishes at EAT on the 21st floor, or take some downtime at CONNECT.

For a collaboration built around destination personality, George Town's combination of art and heritage feels particularly appropriate.

OZO Medini: A Family Adventure in Johor

OZO Medini offers a different kind of Malaysian escape, putting families and leisure travelers close to some of Johor's major attractions.

LEGOLAND Malaysia, Horizon Hills Golf & Country Club, and X Park are nearby, making the hotel a convenient starting point for activity-packed days.

Back at OZO, guests can cool off at SPLASH, eat at EAT, or stop for poolside refreshments at THIRST before getting ready to do it all again the following morning.

How to Collect the OZO x BENZILLA Stickers

The limited-edition stickers are available to guests who book directly with participating OZO hotels.

Guests receive one OZO x BENZILLA luggage sticker per room, per stay at check-out. Eligible reservations must be made by 30 April 2027, with stays completed by 30 June 2027. Stickers are available while stocks last.

That gives travelers plenty of time to plan a mini collecting mission across Thailand and Malaysia — whether that means a quick weekend in Pattaya, surfing in Kata, beach time in Samui, a street-food crawl through George Town, or a family adventure in Johor.

And perhaps that is what makes the collaboration work. The sticker itself is small, but once it lands on a well-traveled suitcase, it becomes another marker of where that bag — and its owner — have been.

The holiday may finish at check-out, but the Good Vibes get to come along for the next trip.
