Do you mean marble versus porcelaine tile?

You can use natural stone like marble for floor but do not use granite for floor at all as it is very slippery when wet. As for tiles do not go for glazed vitrified tiles for the floor for the same reason. ( floor becomes slippery once wet and may cause mishap) Go for ceramic anti skid tiles that are specially meant for bathroom floor. For wall tiles you can use whatever you like and then decide over the matching anti skid floor tile/ marble. Double charged vitrified tiles are usually used for flooring in rest of the house.

Hello Agamonee, In that case, you can have wall mounted ledges, corner ledges on either side or a headrest with inbuilt storage. Thanks, Nitin CORNERSTONE DESIGNS Bangalore.

Dnamies, You query has landed in Houzz India forum. Linoleum is not a preferred flooring here as there are better options readily available. I would suggest you repost this in appropriate forum to get locally suitable products reco. Thanks, Nitin Cornerstone Designs, Bangalore.
