Once you've picked the right hotel, it's time to make sure you've got the right soundtrack for your travels; that's why we've created Tablet Tunes. Let's face it, we just can't stop selecting things for you — and since you aren't able to dedicate the same amount of time to finding new music as when you were 16, let us help.
The original Tablet Tunes collection is a continually updated series of Compilations, curated by the Tablet Hotels team, with an eye toward exposing you to the most essential tracks from the never-ending flood of new music. But wait, there’s more...we've invited some of our favorite hotels to submit Tablet Tunes Hotel Mixes, playlists tailored to specific destinations or types of travel — because lounging in the medina in Marrakech should sound completely different from power shopping on the streets of Tokyo.
All the Tablet Tunes mixes are available for download, track by track or in their entirety, from the U.S., U.K., Canada and Australia versions of the iTunes Music Store. Downloads will be available soon from other country-specific iTunes Music Stores.
