Trip to Old Montreal

[Ajp247]

Looking to take my first road trip from Windsor to Old Montreal. Any recommendations?

Hotel recommendations in Old Montreal - If the hotel doesn't have EV charging are their ample street chargers available?

Make sure that you have the Electric Circuit app, most chargers are on that network.. They do have them randomly spread out on various streets everywhere I drove.. If you can get a good rate at the Homewood Suites By Hilton, 985 Boul. St Laurent they have J1772 charges in the garage for $1.00 per hour. And they have 10 or more units so you could leave it plugged over night.
I have a Lectron Tesla destination charger adapter for mine and, since the Homewood has a dozen Tesla Destination chargers, I used that for free and left it overnight. I was there last week for 5 nights. Had a blast.

This hotel is 2 blocks north of Old Montreal right on St Laurent at Viger. 5 minutes walk into the heart of Vieux Montreal. Bon Voyage and enjoy!

Hampton Inn by Hilton Montreal Downtown shares the same underground parking. You may get a better rate there. I’ve stayed there once and I confirm they have plenty of level 2 chargers in the parking, both Tesla and standard type. Nice place to stay btw. Enjoy your Montreal visit!

I assume you plan to use the OnRoute centres and their Ivy fast chargers. Be prepared for very short cables. I normally park parallel to the curb if there's no one else there.

Yes that's the plan. I've used them before and agree the cables are quite short
