As focused as travelers continue to be on finding cheap airplane tickets and cheap vacation packages, exploding new digital technology is revolutionizing the way many travelers work and relax in hotels.

The following are some of the ways that tablets have impacted hotel guests’ stays:

• Hotel concierges are increasingly being equipped with tablets so that they can prove guests more information as well as images of the restaurants, clubs, and tourist attractions that they are recommending.

• Hotel restaurants are started to use tablets so that guests can read digital menus instead of paper ones.

• Guests are packing less since tablets come with cameras usually meaning that traditional cameras can be left at home. Training videos are now being shot in some hotel rooms because they tend to be quiet.

• Some guests are using their tablets to replace hotel TVs. Travelers can enjoy a virtual library of entertainment at their fingertips by viewing Hulu, Netflix, and iTunes on their tablets.

• Tablets are now serving as tour guides. Often instead of going to the hotel concierge, ...
... guests use their tablets to call up a Google map of the neighborhood, change it to a satellite view, if desired, and take a virtual tour of nearby attractions.

Travelers no longer have an excuse of taking their kids to a boring park or driving all over town in search of an interesting park. Now it is easy to take your family to a fantastic park in an unfamiliar city and enjoy a great stress free day with your kids.
