Everyone's saying pretty much the same things but i wanted to add my ten pense (cents). I would strip the walls, repaint white, replace all brass fittings with chrome, big mirror above units...i mean BIG. And like someone else said I'd work with the tile colour (as I hate tile paint) but maybe adding 'en vogue' red into it, if the majority of the place is white and you add a few well placed strong reds the tiles wont look so bad (they are a pink colour?). Things like a red rug (ikea), bit of art, towels and vases/dispensers in red. I'd also paint the units, but maybe try for a limed-oak feel, so you can still see the wood grain through the white.

I've had a little play doing a bit of a photoshop visual you can check it out at http://www.flickr.com/photos/dogtooth/2380706091/

Apartment Therapy San Francisco | SF Good Questions: How Do I Freshen Up My Bathroom?

This might sound like a bit of a plug, howver I dont mind if you use our products or someone else's, but what you could do is stick some nice wall stickers/vinyl graphics to the mirror and maybe even leading down onto the worktop area. Then with the colour in mind get some matching towels the odd coloured translucent glass vase/bowl.

And if it was me I might also cover the front of the doors in a vinyl or sticky-back-plastic and maybe even the top surface with a nice clean white vinyl......as I design and sell vinyl graphics everything in our house is covered in it. :)
So if you did want to do that you could find your perfect decal and then ask the company to sell you a couple of metres of the macthing colour uncut.

The beauty of vinyl is its removable so no having to repaint the whole bathroom before you leave. At best you peel it off the day you go and at worst (if putting it on a emulsioned wall) you have to do a little touch up.

Check out my very quick photoshop job here.
