How do you ask "Where is the bathroom"?

Question

Help please and please keep in mind I'm not that good at Spanish

Answer 1

This is an interesting question, since in some Spanish speaking countries "baño" means the room that has the bathtub.

A safe way to ask no matter where you are is to use the word "servicios". You could say "¿Dónde están los servicios, por favor?" In Mexico the word "baño" is understood to mean "bathroom", so "¿Dónde está el baño, por favor?" would be fine. However, in general "servicios" is considered a little more refined; it would be like asking "where is the restroom?"

Answer 3

Never say:

¡Me estoy giñando vivo! (it's very impolite)

Well, some correct expressions:

• ¿Dónde está el water?
• ¿Dónde están los baños?,
• ¿Dónde están los aseos?
• ¿Dónde esté el retrete? (old-fashioned).
