Designing an urban hotel-style bathroom with feature tiles

Urban hotel-style bathrooms are all about luxury and elegance and they ooze style. Such bathrooms often include sleek accessories, rich fabrics, fine toiletries, and plush fabrics.

One thing that defines urban hotel-style bathrooms is the colour of the feature tiles used. Hotel-style bathrooms are refined and sophisticated and almost always make use of a neutral colour palette (white, black, and grey). Sometimes, soft hues of green, blue, or yellow are contrasted with darker neutral colours to make these bathrooms livelier.

When it comes to flooring choices, most urban hotel bathrooms make use of feature tiles to create a graphic effect. Feature tiles that exhibit a cool colour palette are an excellent choice for creating such a bathroom. You can even choose to use the same tile pattern on your walls to create a seamless transition.
