Has anyone seen a shower at any hotel anywhere that is similar or even close to this ?

Would say showers at Amanzoe and if I remember correctly Amangiri qualify.

Btw referred to the shower style. Water pressure at Zoe was not great.

The water pressure is bad, or the water flow is lousy? Hotels are investing to reduce their water/sewage costs: Hotels throttling down water flow in room bathrooms.

We’ve experienced many luxe showers yet prefer those abjuring post-doc requirements.

interesting thread.
water pressure.
This was strange as the pressure at the bellagio or wynn or MO / WA is fine

The presidential suites showers at the MO / WA Vegas are extremely large (maybe larger than the above photo)

Speaking about the WA Vegas, have heard that it'll be renovated soon

The showers in our suites at The Savoy in London were magnificent. The showers at Le Bristol in Paris and La Casa Que Canta in Zihuatanejo are lovely.

In general, in my experience, many showers at luxe venues require post-graduate degrees in order to operate.

I had to get the butler to help me with both tub and shower at the St. Regis in NYC.

Why don’t hotels test these to ascertain ease of use?

Best shower in CIS has to be at the RC Almaty. Volume, temperature and pressure all present.

Absolute winner for me hands down is The Mark in NY. Insane volume and insane pressure.
