Hotels shift away from bathtubs


BETHESDA, Md., May 20 (UPI) -- An official with Maryland-based hotel chain Marriott said the industry is phasing out bathtubs in favor of showers to meet the desires of business travelers.

The chain said 75 percent of rooms in new structures will have only showers while Holiday Inn said it has gone from 95 percent of its new rooms having bathtubs 10 years ago to only 55 percent of current rooms in new structures, USA Today reported Friday.

....

"Most business people are on the run and take a quick shower," Barrie said. "There's no time for baths."

"Plus," Barrie said, "the shower experience now can be pretty dramatic."
