EV Charging Services

What types of EV chargers are available?

Our network includes Level 2 AC chargers (up to 22kW) and DC fast chargers (up to 350kW). All locations support Type 2 connectors, with many also offering CCS and CHAdeMO. Tesla drivers can use our chargers with appropriate adapters.

How much does charging cost?

Charging costs vary by location and are transparently displayed during booking. Many properties offer complimentary charging with overnight stays. Where fees apply, they're typically 20-30% below public charging rates. All costs are clearly shown before you confirm your booking.
