Wallpaper in a bathroom?

Anyone out there had experience of wallpaper in a bathroom? I have a half tiled bathroom and quite fancy wallpapering the untiled parts. I have an overbath shower which is tiled behind, just a small area above of painted wall and the rest of the room is half tiled. Is there a special paper and/or paste I should use?

Wallpaper and steamy environments don't really mix. I'd avoid wallpaper in a bathroom, sorry!

scraping it out of a bathroom is currently one of my main hobbies. I'm a no.

I have had vinyl and ordinary wallpaper in half tiled bathrooms with no problems

It's a no from me! Curly wallpaper looks crap.

I'd avoid wallpaper in a bathroom as well because it will peel in no time. Either tile the bathroom fully or half tile and paint.
