* LostInTransmission: Surprisingly averted when Gustave calls the Society of the Crossed Keys for emergency assistance. Despite being relayed via telephone through no fewer than five concierges, with each conversation lasting mere seconds, Gustave's message is conveyed perfectly to its final recipient. {{Justified}} since the message is being relayed by the staff of the best hotels in Europe; [[FridgeBrilliance it is a given that they would execute any request to the letter]].

-->'''The Author''': "Is it [referring to the hotel] simply your last connection to that vanished world–his [referring to Gustave] world, if you will?"\\
'''Zero''': "His world? No, I don't think so. You see, we shared a vocation; it wouldn't have been necessary. No, the hotel I keep for Agatha. We were happy here, for a little while. To be frank, I think his world [[BornInTheWrongCentury had vanished long before he ever entered it]]. But I will say, he certainly sustained the illusion with a marvelous grace."

** During the second train scene, what appears to be a Sd.Kfz.251/22 half-track is shown among the fascist soldiers stopping the train. This vehicle wouldn't be put into service until late 1944, long after the early 1930s setting of the scene.

* DidntThinkThisThrough: Zero and Gustave chase after Jopling on a sled, but it's not until they hit top speed that they realise they don't know what to do if they ''catch'' him, considering he's a homicidal psychopath. Gustave suggests they stop, but Zero points out that he can barely steer the sled.

** The same applies for the German names: Nebelsbad literally means "fog bath." Lutz (possibly a play on the real Polish town of Łódź) is actually a pet name for "Ludwig" (Louis).
