Is it a normal bathtub, or is it avocado colored?
I have a master penthouse. The toilet is in a little room with a door and there’s a curtain on the shower, but there’s no closet door or bathroom door. I sampled about a dozen showerheads to find a quiet one with good pressure and I installed an additional exhaust fan over the jetted tub. It works out great as neither one of us has a long elaborate loud morning routine. Privacy has never been an issue.
I’ve stayed in an upscale hotel/resort where there was no wall between the master bath and the master bedroom. No way would I buy a house like that, and if possible, I’d avoid hotel rooms like that.
What happens when, at 3AM, someone wakes up with a full bladder? In addition to the noise, you either have to pee in the dark, or turn on a light and light up the bedroom. And heaven forbid anyone have diarrhea. How about when one person has to be up early for a meeting, and needs to shower before leaving? Nope, I require a bathroom with doors. Making the bathroom soundproof is even better.
There’s a house across the street from ours that seems to constantly be for sale; someone buys it, then it goes up for sale a year later, stays for sale for a year, someone else buys it, rinse & repeat.
I finally asked an acquaintance who is a realtor what the deal was. She said “It’s a really weird house. For example, there’s a bathtub in the master bedroom.”
So there you have it. Nobody really wants it, but there’s apparently enough people who think it’s cool enough to buy a house and live with it for a year before they realize they don’t want it.
Aesthetically, I wouldn’t mind a tub in the bedroom if:
- it was a nice looking tub
- it was in addition to regular bathroom facilities in a normal room with a normal door
I can see it as a pleasant addition to personal space, but I would imagine using it more for relaxing baths. I would add an attractive bath screen so that it wasn’t just like “hey, tub in the middle of the room!” The regular bathroom would still be to bathe and do all the other mundane personal upkeep that should happen behind closed doors. And of course, there would also be the issue of flooring and how to keep it clean and free of water damage, which seems daunting.
In real life, the tub in the bathroom would probably turn into one more place to sort out the laundry, so I don’t know why I’m even pretending it would be for relaxing baths.
I was in a friend of a friend’s house and saw the tub in the bathroom - it was up on a platform in the middle of the room. First and last time I’ve ever encountered such a thing and I thought it was idiotic.
Each to his own, I guess, but it’s just slightly less bizarre than putting the tub in the middle of the living room.
I wouldn’t mind it if there was also a separate bathroom with a toilet and shower in it. I stayed in a hotel that had a jacuzzi tub in the main room and that was cool. I don’t think I’d use it all that often but it would be nice to have.
My dad’s old house had the tub, shower, and sinks in the bedroom, and it was carpeted. I would really really hate that. Plus the toilet was in its own claustrophobic room.
I saw a tub in a bedroom when I was looking at houses in Madison in the mid-seventies. I didn’t like it then and I still don’t.
Growing up, my parents’ master bedroom and part of the master bath were only separated by a large mushroom-shaped opening. I’d say less than half the wall was actually wall. The two sinks and a Whirlpool tub were in that part, and the toilet and stand-up shower were in a different room with a door.
How about a bidet? 
I was watching that same show! I didn’t like it either. Maybe if it were a 2nd master bath that was up against a pretty window of a fenced in private garden of flowers or something. But not for everyday use. Even when you’re married some things should be done in private. Grooming & toilet adventures are definitely on that list.
Looks nice and pretty.
How do you get into it?
No, it was for sure Love It of List It.
I even caught the end a second time which was proof I saw it right the first time.
Were the toilet & shower/tub in seperate rooms on either side of the sink? Setups like that are populat in hotels aimed at families because it allows one person to take a shower while another’s using the toilet and a 3rd person is brushing their teeth. What really creeps me out is when the little coffee maket is on the counter in the bathroom. :eek:
I actually know someone who’s absurdly overpriced Manhatten apartment had a kitchen tub, complete with the cover that made it look like a table. The toilet was in a water closet of the living room.
That’s not unsusual. Lot’s of people have toilets in their bedrooms. They’re called prisoners. 
Back to the OP; I’d rather have a bathub in my bedroom than a skylight or a large wall of windows that need to be covered up to block light from coming in.
To late to edit, but I just realized a major advantage to putting a tub in the bedroom. Being able to watch TV while taking a bath. That would be nice, especially with a whirlpool.
While some people like using a bathtub for romancing their partner (besides the primary use for getting clean) other people like taking a bath as an unstated excuse to take a break from the rest of the family. For that, you’re going to want a tub that’s off in its own room.
You do know that it is also possible (and rather common in new homes) to put a small, waterproof flat screen TV in any bathroom? Certainly more practical and easier than schlepping a bathtub into the bedroom.
That would be like moving your bed to the kitchen to be near the fridge when, in fact, they also make small refrigerators that work nicely in bedrooms.
Like any other tub
I can’t decide on a champagne glass or heart-shaped tub.
The sides look really high and I’m short.
And getting older.
The tubs with the doors look good to me.
