Four hotels in Monterey are listed here, all with Level 2 charging on site. Two of them, the Monterey Marriott and the Hyatt Regency Monterey Hotel and Spa, show free charging via Tesla connections. The Casa Munras Garden Hotel & Spa lists a flat fee on SemaConnect, and the Hampton Inn Monterey uses ChargePoint. Nightly rates run from $188 to $441. None of the listings here show DC fast charging on site, so plan overnight Level 2 stops rather than quick top-offs.

Why stay in Monterey

Monterey anchors the Monterey Bay coast, with Cannery Row, the aquarium, and Pacific Grove within easy reach. It sits at the north end of the 17-Mile Drive and the road to Big Sur, both scenic drives worth charging up for before you go. Carmel-by-the-Sea is a short hop south for a day trip within a single charge.

Good to know before you book in Monterey

  • Confirm the charger is active and available when you book; listings can change.
  • Two Tesla connections here are marked free, but non-Tesla EVs need a NACS adapter to use them.
  • The Casa Munras lists a flat charging fee on SemaConnect; ask for the current rate at check-in.
  • No listing here shows DC fast charging, so charge overnight rather than counting on a quick top-off.
  • Before driving Big Sur or 17-Mile Drive, top off in town since coastal fast charging is limited.

How our data works

Booking sites get charging wrong often enough that we don't take it from them. Every charger here is mapped from a public registry and tied to the property itself.

01
Mapped from public data

National charger registries, filtered to hotels, are the backbone of every listing.

02
Matched station to property

A charger counts only when it sits at the hotel: within 60 metres, or 150 with a matching name.

03
Date-stamped

Every listing shows the month we last updated it. Anything unconfirmed is left off, never guessed.
