Tablet Hotels — The original curated hotel selection. Tablet is your source for booking the world’s most exciting hotels — places where you’ll find a memorable experience, not just a room for the night. Along with a hand-picked selection of unforgettable hotels. It’s all the places you want to go, all in one place. For over twenty years the travel experts at Tablet have scoured the earth to find hotels that stand out for their extraordinary style, service, and personality. We don’t have every hotel — we have every hotel that matters. From hip indie boutiques to grand old palaces, the Tablet app allows you to seamlessly book their best rates, including Tablet’s private Insider Sale discounts. To help ensure that our selection stays fresh and vital, reviews from verified Tablet guests are used to create the Tablet Score, a running tabulation of what you think about a hotel. And what you think matters — if a hotel's scores are less-than-stellar, we’ll remove them. App users receive concierge-grade customer service from Tablet’s Travel Specialists, who are available to assist with every step of your journey. There’s no cost to use the app and no membership is required. Sign up for a free 30-day trial of Tablet Plus and you’ll receive VIP upgrades and amenities at hundreds of participating hotels.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Tablet Hotels at 4.9 against Dis's 1.4. Tablet Hotels also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ads (none vs shown). Dis's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 26.0). On price, update cadence and monetization model there is nothing between them.
