What do you think makes a hotel luxurious? Of course, the looks play a crucial role. Apart from that, the facilities the hotel provides to its guests also matter a lot. From the way the rooms are designed to the fixtures and fittings in the bathroom, all play a very important role in providing the ‘luxury’ tag to hotels. 


When it comes to bathroom design, most luxury hotels will have a shower system. From a simple shower system with a showerhead and a faucet to one with a lot of features, showerheads can be of any type. 

   

What are the different types of shower systems best suited for luxury hotels?

  • Power shower system

The power shower comes with a built-in pump that pumps water at a high speed. This type of shower system is thus suited for hotels and spas where a luxurious shower is inevitable. The mixer valve in this shower system blends both hot and cold water and provides you with a comfortable showering experience. 


The only disadvantage of power showers is that water consumption is very high. 

  • Digital shower system

The digital shower system is a masterpiece in luxurious shower fixtures as it is both user-friendly and eco-friendly. The key feature of this shower system is that you can personalise the setting to suit your requirements. Right from the water pressure to the temperature of the water, you can fix all the essential features of this type of shower system. 


Most digital shower systems come with a remote control with which you can adjust the temperature of water. Though this type of shower system is best suited for residential use, it can also be used for commercial purposes as it helps save water and energy. 

What are the things to consider while purchasing luxury shower systems for hotels?

  • Water pressure

How forcibly the water flows out from the shower system is a very important factor to consider. If the water flows out with a lot of force, it can affect the durability of the shower system. On the other hand, if the water pressure is very low, it can affect your shower experience. 


The water pressure depends on the water tanker and the boiler. Before buying a shower system, you should check the water pressure in the hotel bathroom and select one that matches the water pressure. 

  • Style of the shower system

Shower systems are available in two styles - modern and traditional. What type of shower system to go for depends on the overall design of the bathroom. 


Most shower systems available in the market are designed in a modern style to complement modern bathrooms. But if you have a traditional bathroom setup, vintage-style shower systems with a telephone or cup-shaped shower head make a perfect choice. 

  • Finish of the shower system

Shower systems are available in various finishes like chrome, brushed nickel, black, gold and rose gold. What type of finish to go for depends on the overall design style of the bathroom. 


Most luxury hotel bathrooms are designed in a contemporary style. As such, shower systems in chrome or brushed nickel would be the perfect choice. However, if the bathroom is designed in exquisite vintage style, you can opt for shower systems in brushed gold or brass finish. 


Having the right shower system can change any bathroom from dull and boring to a luxurious haven. However, you should consider the overall design of the bathroom and select a shower system with the right finish and style. This ensures that the bathroom turns out to be aesthetically appealing and attractive to the guest.
