Fusing innovative editorial, a refreshing outlook on international accommodation and the ability for discerning travellers to find and book cutting-edge hotels all in one place; Tablet are travel pioneers where many others have followed. We’re lucky enough to have teamed up with them this month and present UP&COMING*, a series of posts that will include some of the brand’s tips for the hottest new – up and coming – global destinations.

With over 2,000 handpicked hotels, in more than 100 countries, Tablet has come a long way since the turn of the 21st century; when co-founder and CEO Laurent Vernhes acted upon the trend towards a heavier influence of design, music, style and culture in hospitality he witnessed during the mid 1990s.

Vernhes’ vision for a one-stop resource for global nomads in search of intoxicating wanderlust has not just been realised, but has become a global phenomenon

With a continued focus on inspiration and editorial there’s Tablet Talk – a blog with daily features on design and culture, Tablet Guides – user and concierge-generated recommendations, Tablet Tunes with its journey soundtracks; and behind the scenes interviews with hoteliers and designers in their super-glossy publication Tablet10 Magazine. Vernhes’ vision for a one-stop resource for global nomads in search of intoxicating wanderlust has not just been realised, but has become a global phenomenon that so many have since tried to emulate.
