Your taste will influence choice but there are some things to consider.

There is a certain style associated with a wetroom floor, the uninterrupted floor expanse can enhance the perceived size of the room and creates a beautiful aesthetic by avoiding the colour and texture change of a showertray.  The general feel and ambience is clean and modern, with no step up into the shower area, but there are reasonable arguments for either style.

 

Cost.

Have no doubt, a wet floor system will cost you considerably more than a showertray!  All told, in a typically sized modern bathroom, the difference in cost could be in excess of £1000 GBP, and possibly more in a larger bathroom.

Additional cost comes with the materials and also with the labour for installation.  The waste system is different and the drainage requirements are more critical on a wet floor.  Naturally water needs to drain away downhill, so with the entry point to the drain being lower than with a tray this requirement can provide a challange.
