Premier Inn continues to expand the charging infrastructure for electric vehicles at its hotels in Germany. Currently, 21 of its 75 properties offer charging facilities. By the end of the fiscal year in spring 2027, this number is set to increase to over 30 locations.

In addition, the British hotel chain plans to equip another 20 locations with charging facilities each year. In the long term, all of its hotels in Germany are intended to have such charging infrastructure.

According to Premier Inn, demand for charging facilities has risen significantly over the past few years. Business travelers in particular have been asking for such services more often. For an increasing number of travelers, the ability to charge their electric cars directly at the hotel has become an essential part of their stay.

“That’s why we are gradually expanding our charging infrastructure. For us, it’s not just about providing extra comfort for our guests, but also about promoting electric mobility in Germany through our hotels,” says Erik Friemuth, CEO of Premier Inn Germany.

The charging stations are not available exclusively to hotel guests. Since the underground garages of these properties are accessible to the public with a parking ticket, external users can also charge their vehicles there.
