Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Hotel at 50% against Sea Blade's 10%. Hotel also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 9). Sea Blade's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.0 vs 3.5). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Sea Blade holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sea Blade has 160 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 10% of Sea Blade's written reviews are positive against 50% of Hotel's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Sea Blade ships an update weekly, Hotel every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
