Good to know before you book in Chicago

  • For DC fast on site, book Hyatt Place Chicago Wicker Park or Radisson Blu Aqua Hotel.
  • No listed hotel offers free charging, so budget for per-session or per-kWh fees.
  • Several properties use Tesla chargers; non-Tesla EVs need a NACS adapter and should confirm access.
  • Tesla Destination chargers are often guests-only, so verify availability when you reserve.
  • Confirm connector type (J1772 or NACS) and kW with the hotel before arrival.

How our data works

Charging data on booking sites is wrong often enough that we check it ourselves, property by property.

01
Mapped from public data

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

02
Checked against hotel websites

Pricing, access and conditions confirmed on each hotel's own site where published.

03
Date-stamped

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

Charging at Chicago hotels: FAQ

Which Chicago hotels have Tesla destination chargers?+

AC Hotel Chicago Downtown, Embassy Suites by Hilton Chicago Downtown Magnificent Mile, Loews Chicago Hotel, Pendry Chicago, Radisson Blu Aqua Hotel, Chicago and 3 more list Tesla destination charging. Non-Tesla EVs need a NACS adapter for these, and access is often guests-only, so confirm at booking.

Can I charge at these Chicago hotels without being a guest?+

Assume you need to be staying there. Hotel chargers are generally put in for overnight guests, Tesla Destination units especially, and a property can restrict them at any time. Where a hotel states the charger is for guests only, we say so on its page. Confirm with the hotel before you rely on it.

Do Teslas work with J1772 hotel chargers?+

Yes: every Tesla ships with a J1772 adapter. The reverse needs care: non-Tesla EVs need a NACS adapter for Tesla Destination chargers, and availability at the front desk varies by hotel.

How current is this charging data?+

Each listing shows the month we last updated it. Anything we couldn't confirm is left off the page rather than guessed. Charger hardware, pricing, and access rules do change without much notice, so confirm with the hotel when you book.
