Please let me know if it is a chain, because nearly every hotel I've stayed at has abysmal shower water pressure, probably due to California's mandatory flow-limiting fixtures (currently a paltry 1.8 gallons/minute vs. the federal maximum of 2.5gpm. Prior to regulation a typical rate was 3.5gpm apparently.)
Most shower heads I'm familiar with do have some kind of flow control, but that obviously only reduces it further.
Add in some awful low-flow toilets (currently 1.28 gallons/flush max) that don't flush properly and it's a recipe for misery. I usually mention these issues when the hotel asks me for feedback, but of course nothing changes.
