If there’s any place in your home you want to make sure is soothing, it’s your bathroom. One unexpected (yet easy) way to add zen vibes to your space is with a wooden bath mat, like the ones you’d find at a spa. While it’s true a wooden bath mat won’t give you that same plush feeling underfoot like a softer textile would, its warm, woodsy vibe instantly creates a welcoming feel. Plus, they’re typically easier to keep clean, which never hurts.

Another positive of wooden mats: Their modern, architectural feel looks good in just about any space. Place one in a bold, bright bathroom for a natural touch, or let a wooden mat enhance the minimalist vibes in your calming, simple space. Ready to turn your bathroom into an at-home spa? See our picks below for the best wooden bath mats on the market right now.

For an affordable wooden mat, trythis one from Terrain. Unlike others, it’s made of super-thin slats that sit side-by-side, so it lays flat on your floor like a regular mat would. It’s also quite a bit darker than the other options, which gives it a bold appearance. Plus, the mat rolls right up if you ever need to stow or move it.

This option成本比其他人更多,但这是easy to see why. Designed by Mogens Holmriis for Skagerak, it features shiny hardware and narrow slats for a clean, classy look—and those wide openings between the slats mean the wood dries quickly. Plus, this mat’s been around since 1998, and it looks just as timeless now as it did then, so rest assured this style holds up as well as the materials do.
