You may use marble if you have money.
Frankly, who will bother on what tiles being used in toilet?
What more important is the water proofing done.

Yes, for new house, developer will provide for you.
But if you want to reno, which is hacking the existing tiles and replace with new tiles, it might break the water proofing provided by developer.

Water proofing can be costly. If only simple injection, few hundreds will do.
But I am not professional, I can't tell what's the difference between simple injection and actual water proofing layer.

Trust me, don't do single injection, it won't solve the problem sometimes.

Bt I read thru and ceramic is more porous, so absorb more water. Over time won't cause issue?

Nope, water will sip in through the gaps.

want to ask, if water proofing really works on long term?
I have see waterproofing fail after few years especially those in condo/apartment. need to do re-tiling after 5~10 years above. Any other better solution?

That's because they never do a proper work.
