I've just laid Kardean flooring in my bathroom. Wide range of styles/colours, easy to lay, but you'll need to tack down ply over the boards. Not that cheap but really good quality. All on the web.

Studded latex. It's tactile AND wipe clean. What's not to like?

Make sure it's ply and not hardboard that's down already.

Agree, we have latex in kitchen and amtico flooring in bathroom. Both are fine, come in tiles and do the job. Not sure about slipperiness of wet rubber so definitely the studded version. Only problems are that they may need to be put down by a professional fitter, certainly in the case of the amtico if you want any warranty, which adds to the cost and second, once they are down they are down so make sure that any plumbing or electrics under the floor are not in need of urgent replacement or alteration.

We used these guys most impressed, they have great range of color and texture. Really funked up the bathroom...

Got Rubber Flooring in ours, really happy with it (got boys with poor aim) and in a bathroom not to expensive assuming it's not huge. Great colours and textures. Easy to lay on very flat surface.
