Hotel Chargers?

[jcan]

I'm thinking about heading down to Seattle and would like to find a hotel that has a charger. Plug Share is pretty good, but when you look at Seattle it's a mess of chargers and there's no way of sorting them out. Any ideas?

You might try the Recargo search page instead. Just put in the zip code you are interested in and you get a list sorted by distance.

I have had success calling a hotel that I was staying at (not in Seattle) and they found a 120V receptacle for me to plugin the trickle charger. Depending on how much driving you plan on doing, that might be all you need.

I have found a few Hilton locations that have dedicated 120 volt outlets for EV charging. I would definitely ask!

I'm surprised at how few hotels have installed charging after almost 2 years of EV sales.

But interestingly you can always take a tent and camp at a camping site then plug in to the electric outlet. :mrgreen:

If you don't mind staying in SeaTac near the airport The Cedarbrook Lodge is very nice and has two Blink Chargers. Downtown I believe the Alexis Hotel and Hotel Monaco also have chargers.

if it helps: there are 3 DCFC's in Seattle.
two of them are pretty much in downtown,
the other is at the north end of the city.

as others have said, I'd guess calling a hotel ahead of time may work.
I also know in the retail core, there's Pacific Place (mall) that has L2 chargers in their parking garage.

good luck!

If anyone is ever in the Palm Springs/Indio area we have installed at our Best Western property. Just installed a dedicated parking spot--with 120v plug for trickle charging.

It is:

And yes: it is free!
