Each might help your vacation go a little smoother, or might help you maintain a sense of well-being while on a whirlwind trip.

Bypass having to use it with the Stayconnect app, which pairs your smartphone or tablet with the hotel room TV. That way, you can use your device to change the channel or turn up the volume. You should even be able to use Stayconnect to request room service.

White Noise Free

What it does: Pumps in soothing noises, making it one of the best travel apps if your hotel neighbors are noisy around bedtime. With the White Noise Free app, you can mask any unwanted sounds with the chirping of birds in the Amazon jungle, the crackle of a campfire, or waves crashing along the beach. In addition to five types of white noises, the app comes with 40+ sounds, including some rather odd options, including a blowing hair dryer and a dishwasher rinsing. Whatever helps you sleep!
