Have you ever had a luxury five-star hotel experience that you wished could last forever?

There’s something about walking into a fancy hotel bathroom that instantly relaxes you, with their fluffy robes, spacious baths and gorgeous suites. But why should you only indulge yourself on special occasions? We explore different hotel bathroom ideas here, so you can recreate the look yourself.

Choose materials that exude luxury

Choosing the right materials for your hotel bathroom can make all the difference. Go for marble, glass or stone. Glistening, reflective textures can help add a sparkle. Reflective surfaces make the room look much bigger than it is because they bounce light around the space.

Think carefully about your colour scheme

Hotel bathrooms are usually so elegant and feel luxurious because their décor is so simple.  A monochrome scheme is smart and sophisticated. Black, white and grey is also versatile, you can change your bathroom style with new accessories as often as you like.

Tile your bathroom from floor to ceiling 

If you have a larger bathroom, large bathroom tiles that are tiled from floor to ceiling are the ultimate hotel-chic. Look for something glossy and with a little sparkle. 

Think carefully about lighting

Everyone looks better in a hotel bathroom mirror because the lighting is always spot on. One of the easiest ways to transform your bathroom at home into a hotel bathroom is to upgrade the lighting. 

Focused lighting is essential for that hotel bathroom feel. Incorporate spotlights or wall lights to create subdued pockets of light, particularly over the main areas of the bathroom, such as around the mirror, sink and bath. A pendant light or chandelier can be a great statement too.

Transform your space with a statement freestanding bath

A freestanding bath is a beautiful addition to any bathroom, but bringing it into the bedroom creates an entirely new look and feel, instantly transforming your space into a hotel inspired boudoir. Opt for one of our luxurious metallic finishes to make a high-end style statement.

Take a seat

Hotel bathrooms tend to be more spacious than our ones at home. However, if you’re lucky enough to have a bigger bathroom, make space for somewhere to sit. Whether it's a stool, ottoman or accent chair. Adding a seat in your bathroom will not only make it look more glamorous, but it will also give you a place to sit while you prepare for the day.

Keep your towels warm and fluffy with a heated towel rail

Nothing makes you feel like you’re in a luxury hotel bathroom quite like stepping out of your shower or bath and picking up a pre-warmed towel. Often overlooked in bathroom design, a stylish heated towel rail can help you to create a hotel-spa feel in the simplest of ways, while also keeping your towels warm and fluffy.

Don’t forget the finishing touches

Last, but certainly not least, it’s all about the little details. Upgrade your bathroom accessories by matching the brassware on your basins, showers and taps to complete your hotel bathroom look. Any hotel bathroom would not be complete without some fancy towels. Make sure you invest in some high-quality towels, even if they’re just for show.
