A glass wall to a shower/bathroom in a hotel room is a feature in many hotels now, especially in Las Vegas. It allows for natural light in an inside bathroom where there are no windows. It also allows for a "show" if desired.
Hi, Emma. I'd just like to extend my gratitude from my family to yours. Your channel helped me book our first ever cruise last Nov. I started watching your videos last June and it has made quite an impact to how we'd spend the holidays last year. ❤️❤️❤️
For people who get somewhat claustrophobic, having a curtain to open on that side allows additional daylight to shine in. For sole travelers, we really like the openness within the room.
I believe the purpose is to get natural light in the shower and bathroom as well as allowing you to enjoy the ocean, hence why they don't have it in an inside cabin.
I think my wife and I would have a bit fun with that bathroom setup 😍 The wife would probably also appreciate the natural light and openness when doing her hair and makeup.
I go to a resort in Mexico where you can open up French doors between the bathroom and the bedroom. You can relax in the bath while enjoying the view out the window. And I have also stayed at resorts in Malta and in Florida where there was a big bathtub right in the bedroom. I think complete privacy while bathing is not such a big deal in many cultures.
They designed it that way to allow natural light into the bathroom. It's more common than you'd think in modern hotels, but usually there is a switch to turn the glass fully opaque.
It’s a weird “feature”. I’ve seen it in hotels, albeit infrequently. For a time, it was de riguer in W brand hotels, for instance. Around the world, I’ve seen it most frequently in Germany and Austria, where it’s most typically a window like in your cabin, but occasionally the entire shower (sides and entrance) is in the room itself, versus the WC. And, no, these haven’t been in hotels marketing themselves as “adult”. 😅
It would probably be fun as long as your ship does pull up along side another at port while you're showering, since the curtain can't be closed from the shower 🤣
As someone who lives alone, I could never share my space with anyone. So, for me, natural light in the shower sounds great - and I would love the view while I showered.
omg Emma thank you for mentioning that horrible mirror in most cruise bathroom. I was just on a cruise during the holiday season and tried to do my makeup in that mirror, but I just could not stand looking at myself so close up and distorted.
I took a Rhine river cruise last year and spent a few days in Amsterdam before getting on the ship. The hotel I was staying in had a very similar setup for the bathrooms as well, I thought it was very strange as an American but chocked it up to just being a quirky design choice in the recently renovated hotel and possibly a European design thing. (Never seen it before on other Europe trips) But now seeing you see this and think it's strange just cemented the idea that somewhere someone has a very strange idea on what a normal bathroom should look like.
My first thought was: 'Well, if Emma wasn't cruising with her parents, no problem, oh wait, okay, separate cabins, phew' It's a strange one for sure. Two reasons I guess: (1) natural light (2) annoying your partner which is always entertaining 😁
Having lost interest in cruising since the pandemic started (I just dont like to be around strangers anymore), these videos are incredible to me. I feel like Im cruising with you!
Some people love to watch. That is why they did it. It’s a swingers cruise ship. Emma’s secret it out in the open. You cheeky bird! Bravo and well played.
That is an odd feature, I would hope it was disclosed when you book a specific room. I think my daughter rooming with us last cruise would've found that really awkward. Either way, you talked me into buying Captain Hudson too.
Its very common for showers/baths to have glasses at hotels where I live (Indonesia). Even for huge chain hotels like hilton or hyatt. Some even have a whole wall made from glass. Since Indo is a tropical country, we enjoy the sunlight so having this feature makes ur bathroom naturally lighted.
I worked in a hotel once that had a glass wall for the water closet. Very awkward if someone was using the room and you didn't know they were in there. I really don't know why you would want a glass wall for the toilet
The glass shower wall saves space. It is a lot thinner than a traditional wall. High end hotels are doing this too. I stayed at Renaissance at the Warsaw airport and the shower had a glass wall.
I stayed at a Holiday Inn in Paris that had a big picture window between the bed and the bathroom. Fortunately they had a pull down curtain that worked from the bathroom side.
We went on the NCL Epic in 2019 and the bathroom situation was weird. As soon as you entered the cabin the toilet was in one side and the shower on the other. Both were frosted no curtains. There was a curtain separating the bedroom from the bathroom area but if someone was entering the cabins including the staff would have a show. Unfortunately this happened on several occasions
Some newer hotel (on land!) designs have clear walls for the shower area, to make the room feel more spacious, or for some rooms I stayed in, because they thought it gave the design a "modern" appeal. The most fancy/risky one I've personally experienced is the Hyatt in Tokyo, where the full bathroom area (toilet and shower) were completely covered by glass walls, BUT, the minute you stepped in the bathroom space, and sensed a human being (I think that was the trigger), the walls automatically fogged up. Good thing I was by myself in the room, but at least the automatic fogging never failed!
Hey Emma, This window in the shower thing is very common in hotels in Asia. We ran into this in Thailand in November. There was a blind you could lower but it was on the bathroom side, much better I think. It did bring natural light into the bathroom but I suspect the window is for more shall we say romantic reasons for couples. Someone did suggest that if you're a man and you bring a girl back to your room, you can keep an eye on her while you use the facilities to make sure she isn't going through your stuff. That said, I just wanted to let you know that I'm finally going on my first cruise on Friday and I'll be able to finally use all the great info you have shared on your channel. I'm Alaska bound!
I was on a work conference, three colleagues sharing a room. They had two windows in the bathroom, probably to let natural daylight in. We had the samme issues you mentioned, except there wasn't even frosting on the glass or a way to cover them.
Emma : it was so you could watch the tv whilst in the shower. They are common in the better European (non-uk) hotels. TV likely on a swivel and speaker somewhere in bathroom if they had bothered.
@@notcharlie7107 I'm an American. I said my sister because, being a man, I don't carry a purse and wouldn't know myself. My wallet goes in my back pocket.
Just so you know they have these same type showers in some rooms in the cosmopolitan in Las Vegas. The difference was there was no blurred out area. It was truly odd since the room had two double beds and we happen to be there for a bachelor party. 😂
I hate being on the water, but your videos always make me want to chance a cruise. Ordered a Captain Hudson for my sister in law who takes a couple cruises every year. Now, she won't have to travel alone.😉
LOL, you’re adorable. It is indeed common now in modern hotel bathrooms; I first noticed it over a decade ago in Miami, and more recently in Vegas. Even in Asia, I’ve learned to check photos carefully when traveling with friends after I ended up in a similar setup with a romantic partner in Shanghai. You were lucky-I’ve never seen them provide a curtain 😂. It is so cute that you found this remarkable enough to discuss when you were traveling with your partner! I think it’s only a problem if you’re traveling with a non romantic partner. But agree that it’s an unnecessary feature.
3:25 in Canada a purse is the same ... but also includes any women's handbag that is not huge, and does not include clutches. If men carry one it is usually just called a bag.
reception: "we hope you and your husband have a spicy time in our peek-a-boo cabin" emma: "err you mean me and my brother?" 🙂 (i think you sometimes travel with him, right?)
The curtain could be useful if you’re travelling with children who are old enough to shower independently but might perhaps shout for help occasionally. Or if you’re travelling with someone with mobility issues who may need you to check in with them. Or maybe I’m clutching at straws & it’s an “adult entertainment” thing 😂
i was sharing a hotel room with my nephew at a family thanksgiving escape to the Morongo indian casino. same deal. big window from the room into the shower. but no frosted glass. no curtain. NO WAY. I found out every standard room was like that. What were they thinking? upgraded to a suite that didn't have that idiotic feature.
I absolutely hate being in cabin bathrooms longer than needed, due to some mild claustrophobia. So this would be my perfect cabin 👌😂 as maybe i can trick my brain with the view to the room
Emma, you have got to quit checking the "Hubba-Hubba-Hubba" block when you book these cruises. 😅 Yeah, that's a quirky feature for sure. Great video, btw!
I'm going with they had in the plans access to the shower from the cabin, which would be nice as ship bathrooms can be a bit tight for 2+, and at the last minute realized the carpets would be constantly wet and create issues. Thus they simply threw the glass into this opening as it was the cheapest fix.
I ordered a Captain Hudson to go with my many American Airlines pilot bears (and on El Al pilot plush animal too). I am a flight attendant and so excited to add Captain Hudson to my collection.
It's so you can still get an ocean view from your bathroom, it's a new design concept in a few high end luxury rooms to increase the scenic rooms, privacy with a view.
i wonder if the shower window could also be for noticing someone coming into the room or even seeing if anyone is hiding in the shower when you come in haha
We must have had a REALLY budget cabin on the Achilles Lauro. The shower and toilet were combined, so you had to put the toilet paper outside if you wanted to shower 😄😄
Some mainland hotels have been doing this as well, where there is a glass partition, totally see through from the room into the shower. Absolutely incomprehensible that people would do this! The only thing I can figure is natural light would help with mold issues. Otherwise, can't imagine!
I’ve stayed in a hotel in Las Vegas and another in New York that had completely clear glass panels (no frosted bit) between the shower and bedroom area. Very strange idea!

Hi, just one question, how was the temperature control in the cabin?. Was it easy to use and effective?. We've been on a few cruises and found the A/C not up to scratch when it's really hot outside.
“I was very confused why anyone would want this.” Such a sweet outlook on life. Never change, Emma!
😂 Thanks for watching 😀👏🏼
Yeah, my wife and I would love this. We've always talked about having a house with a open glass shower in the master bed/bath.
Va-Va Voom!

I’ve stayed in hotels in HongKong and Singapore that had the same “feature”. My husband thought it was a brilliant idea.😂😂😂
If you're with your partner, I don't think there's anything wrong with "enjoying the view" whether in the shower or out! 😂
Thanks for watching 😀👏🏼
Emma, that could be taken two ways!
I absolutely love the see thur shower wall. And we been married 46 years.
@@kennethcarter2737 Always good to have more views.
Why do some people refuse to say "husband" and "wife" any more? Or is the refusal in being one?
Emma, I don’t know how you did it, but you created a wildly entertaining, and informative, 8 minute video about a shower curtain.
10/10
Hahahaha, best comment ever. 😂
I agree!
Honestly, it's the most interesting shower curtain since G.L.A.D.O.S., so....
For people who get somewhat claustrophobic, having a curtain to open on that side allows additional daylight to shine in. For sole travelers, we really like the openness within the room.
YES!!!!!! I'm a solo cruiser AND am extremely claustrophobic, so this would be perfect for me.
I believe the purpose is to get natural light in the shower and bathroom as well as allowing you to enjoy the ocean, hence why they don't have it in an inside cabin.
Yeah so true. Thanks for watching 😀👏🏼
It seems very expensive to add it for natural light.
But the shower seems to be so far from the balcony
A window with a curtain would give enough natural light and privacy
That glass window is really cool. Imagine showering while at sea and being able to see out through the balcony doors! Beautiful.
Thank God you're back. Your happy optimism and fun and informative cruise videos are my happy pills!
Thanks so much ☺️
As one who despises artificial light while the sun is out, I love the shower window idea!!!
😂😂😂
I think my wife and I would have a bit fun with that bathroom setup 😍 The wife would probably also appreciate the natural light and openness when doing her hair and makeup.
Thanks for watching 😀👏🏼
I’ve never been on a cruise and can’t now due to health issues so watching your videos make me so happy! Thank you 🌸

The window is made for couples! That’s fun!
These are quite common now in high end hotel rooms. Adds natural light to the bathroom 😜

If you are in a high rise its not uncommon to have a view from the shower/bath.
I agree, that is a real possibility!
@@redwolfexr But a full view like this? Well, the occupant would either be extremely liked or despised very quickly by the neighborhood .lol
@@mrdan2898 You can't see IN... only out.
Personally since I'd be staying by myself I'd have that open the whole time, natural light in a bathroom is so nice.
They designed it that way to allow natural light into the bathroom. It's more common than you'd think in modern hotels, but usually there is a switch to turn the glass fully opaque.
I'm guessing the exterior shower curtain was picked because it was cheaper than a built-in while still keeping the shower curtain from getting mildewy
You're a real gem. Thank you for what you do.
It also helps that she’s very easy on the eyes….
Thank you that’s very kind ☺️💕
Give your bf/gf or spouse a special show !

I stayed in a hotel in New Zealand where the room had exactly this, but the ‘curtain’ was a motorised screen. The switch was by the bed…
feel they did the bathroom thing so you could be in the shower and look out through the balcony door to the outside.
Yeah I suppose so, bizarre! 😂
It would probably be fun as long as your ship does pull up along side another at port while you're showering, since the curtain can't be closed from the shower 🤣
That curtain is certainly a remarkable feature! Thank you for the video!
The captain hudson plushy is the motivation I need to finally book a cruise for my fiance and myself!
Yesss!! 😀❤️
As someone who lives alone, I could never share my space with anyone. So, for me, natural light in the shower sounds great - and I would love the view while I showered.
Do you still have to pay the two person room rates though?
What you see as a problem, I see it as an opportunity 😅
What do you mean? Thanks for watching 😀👏🏼
@@EmmaCruises Could be kinky for couples, maybe you could even shower while watching the sea if you open the balcony.

Yeah I ordered 5 and had to pay 5x!! Haha. It’s just how they do it. Thanks so much for ordering, exciting!!! 😀
@Emma Cruises It's such a great cause and you always do so much to give back- ordering our own Hudsons is the least I could do!
Hi, just one question, how was the temperature control in the cabin?. Was it easy to use and effective?. We've been on a few cruises and found the A/C not up to scratch when it's really hot outside.
Yep was good, generally newer ships = better AC 😀❤️
