Bed bath and beyond.

Oct 5, 2010

taking design cues from hotels is something we’ve probably all done, but how do you feel about this hotel’s placement of the bathroom?

While it’s not technically in the bedroom (as in some of the other open-plan bedrooms pictured below) it’s awfully close, with only the tiniest smidgen of partition between the two.

“There’s something luxurious – and a little bit naughty – about a tub in the bedroom. Like the open-air showers at tropical resorts, the idea of bathing out in the open can be both liberating and titillating,” or so says Apartment Therapy. But let’s turn now to the unsexy topic of practicality. Unless you have a daily made service to clean up all the water you’re likely to splash over the floor and make sure the tub is streak-free and shining, the novelty could wear off fast. Because who wants to glance over and see even a semi-clean tub or a jumble of toiletries when they’re lying in bed? Maybe it’s a luxury best kept to hotels.
