For business trip or travel, we can't avoid checking into a hotel. But have you noticed that the hotel bathroom doors are almost designed completely transparent or translucent? Maybe you think it's for pleasure; or, feel awkward about it when sharing the room with friend or colleague. This design exists for some special reasons.

Unlike home, the hotel is a space that we’re unfamiliar with, where we’re easy to encounter an emergency situation, especially in the slippery bathroom.
If you’re accompanied by someone, once you slip or get hurt, he is able to assist you immediately. In case you feel embarrassed, a shower curtain is always ready in the bathroom.
If you check in alone, the glass can help you to keep aware of the situation of the room during a shower, so as to prevent someone from stealing. In some appropriate-layout bathroom, you could watch TV at the same time to free your body and minds.

Due to the limited space, most hotel rooms will not be designed very spacious. The use of glass doors will increase the transparency of the room, thus extending the visual space.

The glass is much cheaper than concrete walls.

When installing the bathroom door, waterproof and moisture-proof matter a lot, and glass, compared to other materials, is a perfect solution to that.
-Cleaning-

It’s hardly to see any window in a hotel bathroom, so it relies much on the lamp to light it up. Glass can make good use of the light, and it’s easier to tell its cleanness. What’s more, featuring silky surface, it’s very convenient to clean.

Some people may forget to turn off the light of the bathroom, and transparent design can remind someone outside notice this easily. If you encounter a power failure in a hotel, the glass can reflect the outside light to keep the room from completely dark.
Well, have you thought that there would be so much to consider when designing a 'glass bathroom'? Maybe the next time you check in such a hotel, you won't feel so embarrassed!
