 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi All
Driving down to Les Arc for Feb half term.. I am well versed in European EV driving, but here is where I need some help
I want to cross the channel late on Friday as we will leave Yorkshire after school finishes, then almost immediately stop in Northern France at a hotel, ideally with 11-22kW AC charging so we can fill right up whilst we are asleep
Question is does anyone know of such a place, ideally within 80km of Calais

@djglover, I've just Googled 'hotel with ev charging near Calais' and a map with locations plus a list of hotels advising the charger types they have. You'll know how near is near enough/too close for you (we drive from the other side of the Pennines so also like a stop close to Calais, but haven't done it in our ev)

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Get the chargemap app - you can then filter by power rating and "accomodation" as a starter for 10

I stayed in the Hotel Maurice in Calais last year. They had 2 AC chargers which were at least 11Kw (the most our car can take AC). We reserved a slot when we booked the room. The charger did need a specific app (our Charge map card didn't work with it).
I tend to us booking.com to find hotels - you can filter by those with EV chargers

You'll need to Register first of course.

A lot of the Ibis/Novotel have EV charging especially if there is a huddle of them in the same area.
It's also a filter on Booking.com and other sites.
Big Carrefours seem to offer charging options (at the same site) ranging from 300kW to 7kW depending on what you can take and how long your shopping will take.

A bit too far from Calais for you, but maybe useful for others - Greet hotel, Beaune, cheap as chips and 8 x 225kW Chargers on site (Electra).

Chargemap is quite a good app with loads of filters to narrow down your search.
