Best Airport Showers

What are you favorite airport showers around the globe? Looking for free showers like those in Amsterdam Airport, but if there are really good lounge showers want to know about those too!

Mine include the Atlanta E SkyClub showers; Oasis Lounge showers at T4 at JFK; free showers in AMS airport; and shower suites at the First Class terminal at FRA.

Not free, but KLM lounge showers at AMS and SQ lounge showers at SIN, especially on IFC side in T2 or the ones next to the entrance to TPR in T3. The DL SC showers at DTW and LAX are quite good, as are those in the *A IFC lounge at LAX TBIT and the ANA Suites lounge at NRT.

DFW, Terminal A, Admirals Club. Huge overhead "rainfall" type shower with side jets coming from multiple angles. Truly a shower worthy of Texas, a paean to water waste, and the best shower I've had anywhere.

The shower at the DFW Terminal A Admirals Club. I'd live in that shower if I could figure out a way to eat in there. A couple times after a redeye I've sat under the spray and dozed for a while.

The new ones in the E terminal at ATL are pretty nice, and I haven't found a wait there yet (I hit them 1-2 times per week)

Ok it's not actually in the airport but I love the Mumbai Hyatt dinner/shower/spa package for $70.

This is the correct answer.

The NH arrivals/domestic lounge at NRT has great water pressure. I've always liked that shower.

Yeah, though to be fair they do the trick. The showers at the HKG Arrivals Lounge a bit better.

Seeing as I'm LHR T5 based, any shower that doesn't loudly gurgle at me will do, and bonus points for one with ventilation so I don't have to get dressed in a sauna.

yup, my vote also.

Isn't the story behind these that what is now part of the Terminal A Admirals Club used to be the International Departure Lounge (before Terminal D opened)...or something along those lines. AA put in those sweet showers to cater to those (flagship perhaps?) who qualified for it's use.
