Designer Towel Rails UK: The Reina Collection Guide

A heated towel rail works harder than almost any other fitting in a UK bathroom — it dries towels, takes the chill off tiled floors, and in most homes it's also the room's main radiator. That makes the choice worth getting right, and our designer towel rails collection is built around one of the UK's best-known heating brands for exactly that reason.

Why a Designer Towel Rail Beats a Standard Radiator

In most UK bathrooms the towel rail doubles as the room's main source of heat, so it is worth choosing one that actually looks the part. A designer towel rail delivers the same warmth as a panel radiator while giving you somewhere proper to hang and dry towels, in a chrome, polished stainless steel or anthracite finish built to be seen rather than hidden behind a door. Unlike a plain panel radiator, a well-chosen rail can double as the focal point of the room.

The Reina Collection at Ultra Bathroom

Our designer towel rail range is built around Reina, a UK heating brand known for flat-panel and tubular designs that suit both period and contemporary bathrooms. Five models currently lead the collection:

• Reina Luna Vertical Flat Polished Stainless Steel Towel Rail — from £135, a slim flat-panel design that suits narrow wall space in a cloakroom or ensuite.
• Reina Florina Chrome / Anthracite Towel Rail — from £149, with a two-tone finish that works well as a feature wall piece.
• Reina Cavo Polished / Satin Stainless Steel Towel Rail — from £219, mixing polished and satin bars for extra texture.
• Reina Arden Polished Stainless Steel Towel Rail — from £236, a wider ladder-style rail suited to family bathrooms.
• Reina Helin Polished Stainless Steel Towel Rail — from £276, the largest heat-output model in the range.

Choosing the Right Size, Finish and Heat Output

Before ordering, measure the wall space you have and check the heat output against your room size — a small cloakroom rail will underheat a larger family bathroom, while an oversized rail wastes wall space in a compact ensuite. Polished stainless steel gives the brightest, most reflective finish and suits modern schemes; chrome is the safer, more classic choice; anthracite works well against white or pale tile and hides watermarks better than polished finishes. Every rail in this range can run on a central heating circuit or be fitted with an electric heating element for use independent of the boiler in summer, which is worth deciding before you order fixings and any valve kit.
