private baths

En-suite washing rooms

Private baths are bathrooms not shared with other guests or residents.

The term appears most often in hotel and lodging descriptions, distinguishing rooms with their own bathroom from those requiring use of a shared facility down the hall: All rooms have private baths.

In older buildings or budget accommodations, private baths remain a selling point rather than an assumption.
