浴室(よくしつ)

浴室(よくしつ) is composed of 浴(よく) (bath) + 室(しつ) (room). It specifically means the room for bathing, not the toilet. In casual speech, お風呂(ふろ) is far more common.

JAPANESE BATHROOM LAYOUT:
Japanese bathrooms are typically separate from the toilet room. The 浴室(よくしつ) contains a 浴槽(よくそう) (bathtub), a shower, and a washing area outside the tub where you wash before soaking.

REGISTER:
浴室(よくしつ) is used in formal contexts — real estate listings, hotel descriptions, and written language. In daily conversation, お風呂(ふろ) or 風呂場(ふろば) is preferred.
