Every French Bathroom Comes With a Bidet
Many travelers are shocked when they arrive in their hotel room in France, and walk into the bathroom to find a bidet, as well as a toilet and shower. Although bidets are popular throughout France, they are not the norm. In Italy, where a 1975 law made installing a bidet mandatory in a new bathroom, 97% of houses now come with bidets. In France, people have begun to prefer the toilet seat bidet, which is an addition to a toilet set just under the seat that assists in cleaning, and is especially popular with the elderly.
