Why Hotel EV Charging Matters for Road Trips
Finding a hotel with EV charging turns overnight stops into free refueling. Instead of hunting for a public charger in an unfamiliar city, you plug in at the hotel parking lot and wake up with a full battery. With 2,837 properties now offering on-site chargers across 51 states, the infrastructure has grown well beyond a handful of luxury resorts.
Most hotel chargers are Level 2 (J1772), delivering 6 to 11 kW — enough to add 150 to 300 miles of range during an 8-hour overnight stay. 1,709 properties have Tesla Destination chargers, which are typically free for hotel guests. A smaller number of highway hotels now have DC fast chargers for quick top-ups.

Industry Expert Perspectives on Hotel & Destination Charging
"Distributed charging is the future. You show up, there's a little pedestal, you plug it in, you walk away. The car transacts using Plug & Charge. We appreciate the well-intended nature of California's requirement for credit card readers, but actually the credit card readers are a mess. They weren't designed for abusive outdoor use."

"Our year-over-year growth isn't just a sign of a strong company; it reflects a growing community of EV drivers who believe in an electric future. As we approach our 10-year anniversary, I think about the millions of drivers who have shaped Electrify America into what it stands for today."
