Whether it’s because of the rise of Instagram influencers and #bathroomselfie posts (of which there are currently over 1.6million on Instagram), or an explosion of the wellness trend, the bathroom has undeniably found itself on the social media stage. To reveal the world’s most Instagrammed bathrooms, Mira Showers monitored five key bathroom-related hashtags – #bathroomgoals #bathroomsoftheworld #hotelbathroom #bathtubgoals #bathroomview - and identified hotel locations that appeared the most. The top 10 range from exotic island bathrooms overlooking crystal-clear waters, to outdoor tubs in the heart of the British countryside. Travel influencer and blogger, Erica Vonderwall, believes there are two factors that makes a bathroom so-called ‘Instagrammable’, saying: ‘Firstly, bathrooms are typically the least inspiring place on Earth, so when one looks like somewhere you’d want to eat your brunch at and invite your pals over to see, you know it’s going to get the likes – while also being the envy of everyone who sees your picture. ‘Secondly, for something to be popular on Instagram, it needs to be out of the ordinary; to be different to the norm; to be aspirational, not just inspirational. A petal bath, a glittery bath bomb, a novelty bathmat, or a riot of colours on a wall that’s traditionally white or pale blue is something so unnatural for a bathroom, that it will instantly become a hit for Likes.” Matt Herbert,Digital Communications Manager at Mira Showers, said: ‘We know that many people get their own bathroom trend (opens in new tab) 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.’
