    My bathroom has travertine covered walls.

    The YIGII stainless steel hand towel holder came with a self-adhesive
    pad on the back. This seemed to be fine when first carefully applied
    but after several months the holder fell off.

    Theoretically the side facing the wall could be cleaned and reapplied
    but it didn't last.

    Eventually I bought some clear double-sided adhesive tape.
    That lasted for a few months. It was however, narrower than the rail. I
    was tempted to buy some more, this time 2.3cm wide but before doing so, I thought I would ask here if anyone had found the perfect adhesive tape
    for travertine.

    No idea about travertine but I'd look at the 3M range. I've found their products to be much better than unbranded alternatives. They have different grades of adhesive tape, from the post-it easy removal stuff to things to
    hold cars together.

    For a towel holder it's going to be taking a decent amount of weight so I'd want the contact area to be as large as possible.
