World’s most ‘Instagrammable’ hotel bathrooms

Whether it’s because of the rise of Instagram influencers and #bathroomselfie posts (of which there are currently over 1.6 million on Instagram), or an explosion of the self-care trend, the bathroom has undeniably found itself on the social media stage. What was once a space for privacy and everyday hygiene routines has become an internet sensation in recent years.

To reveal the world’s most Instagrammable bathrooms Mira Showers has monitored five key bathroom-related hashtags (#bathroomgoals, #bathroomsoftheworld, #hotelbathroom, #bathtubgoals, #bathroomview) and identified hotel locations that appeared the most.

The list range from exotic island bathrooms over-looking crystal-clear waters, to outdoor tubs in the heart of the British countryside.

The most Instagrammed bathrooms in the world:

• Conrad Maldives, Rangali Island, Maldives
• The Silo Hotel, Cape Town, South Africa
• Punta Tragara Hotel, Capri, Italy
• Six Senses Zil Payson, Seychelles
• Shangri-La Hotel at the Shard, London, UK
• The Peninsula, Hong Kong
• Zannier Hotels, Sonop, Namibia
• The Udaya Resorts and Spa, Bali, Indonesia
• The Old Piggery at Windout Farm, Devon, UK

Topping the list as the most expensive hotel bathroom is The Muraka suite at Conrad Maldives, Rangali Island. As each stay is carefully tailored to individual guest requirements, exact costs are available by enquiry only, but as a guideline, costs can vary between GBP 16,949 (USD 22,000/EUR 19,661) in low season (July and October) and GBP 50,076 (USD 65,000/EUR 58,088) in high season (April and December).

If that is a little out of your price range then there’s the Sunset Water Villa option, complete with ocean-facing bath that’s proving very popular on social media. Costs for this vary between GBP 2,897 (USD 3,760/EUR 3,361) in low season (July and October) and GBP 7,172 (USD 9,310/EUR 8,319) in high season (December).

By comparison, the most affordable Instagram-famous bathroom can be found here in the UK. Listed with Canopy and Stars, the Old Piggery at Windout Farm in Devon can range from GBP 115 in low season (April) to GBP 145 in high season (July and December).

“From a room of function to a glorified photoshoot backdrop”

Matt Herbert, digital communications manager at Mira Showers, said: “We know that many people get their own bathroom inspiration from some of the most beautiful hotels around the world, so it was fascinating to discover what some of the most photographed bathrooms are.

“Over the past few years, we’ve definitely seen the humble bathroom turn from a room of function to a glorified photoshoot backdrop, so we hope that this research can inspire our customers if they are looking to refresh the look of their own.”
