4 Less Well Known Bathroom Accessories All Hotels Should Have

It’s become common knowledge that kitchens and bathrooms sell houses. And whilst most hotel rooms don’t have a kitchen, they do have a bathroom and certainly most hotels are aware that a great bathroom can help sell their rooms. So, whilst the hotel may have installed a beautiful bathroom suite and complimentary accessories such as towel rails and toilet roll holders, there are some less-well-known hotel bathroom accessories that can provide extra levels of design and practicality that can set one hotel’s bathroom apart from another. Here are four examples:

1: Chrome drop-down grab rail for the less able

For some time now at least a proportion of hotel bathrooms have provided the necessary support aids needed by less able people. In particular, the grab rail is one of these functional and important accessories. But why does the grab rail have to be excluded from the design care and attention that is often afforded to soap dishes or tissue dispensers? In short, it doesn’t. It is now possible to buy contemporary chrome drop-down grab rails that are specifically designed for the hotel and commercial markets. And for the best quality varieties of grab rail, these are also strength tested to ensure they are durable in addition to being well designed. With a little forward planning it has now become possible to specify very elegant and unobtrusive drop-down grab rails that can actually add to the contemporary design of the bathroom.

2: Curved Shower Rail

For as long as curtain rails have existed, the main assumption has been that the rail should follow the line of the bath. Seems logical. And yet some of the clever designers and manufacturers of bathroom accessories now offer chrome curved shower rails. Quite simply this type of shower rail bows outwards from the line that the edge of the bath follows. This means the showering area is immediately increased and the customer gets significantly more elbow room when stood in the bath and having a shower. And because the curtain still hangs into the bath, there is no valuable space lost from elsewhere in the bathroom when the shower curtain is drawn.

3: Shaving / Magnified Mirror

Many people posses a magnifying mirror in their bathroom at home and yet this valuable feature is often missed by hotels. For obvious reasons, the hotel’s shaving mirror / magnified mirror needs to be attached to the wall, but with chrome styling and hinged arm this item can be a practical addition which also adds a stylish feature to the room.

4: Wall Mounted Bottle Opener

There can’t be many smaller products than this that are more overlooked for the bathroom whilst at the same providing such great benefits. If every hotel bathroom had a wall mounted bottle opener then two problems would cease to exist immediately. One: there would be no more lost or stolen bottle openers from the mini bar. Two: no more carpet or upholstery stains would be caused by fizzy and overflowing bottles being opened in the room rather than the bathroom. And if the wall mounted bottle opener is sourced from the best manufacturers, it can further add to the style and design of the bathroom.
