Electric vehicles are no longer a niche trend; they’re fast becoming the norm. For hotel managers, this shift brings the new opportunity (and responsibility) of offering EV charging to guests.

When individuals are away with business, their “home for the night” is a hotel. If that hotel can’t offer an EV charger, the driver’s day becomes more complicated, and the employer starts looking for alternative accommodation.

Picture this: a time-critical business trip, low battery and no certainty of finding a working EV charger en route. That was the reality recently faced by James, a senior marketing strategist from Leeds. Tasked with delivering a highly important product strategy presentation to prospective clients near Reading, James’ experience highlights just how crucial seamless EV charging is, especially for business travellers.
