Charge yourself and your electric car!

Preston Palace has 26 charging points for electric cars: Floading! From now on, not only will you charge yourself during a wonderful all-inclusive stay, your electric car can refuel as well. Doing sustainable activities has never been so relaxed. 

Costs
Using the Floading charging points costs an average of €0.50 per kilowatt hour.

You can pay in two ways:
– with your own charging card or token, or
– via the QR code (iDEAL, Apple Pay or credit card).

When charging via the QR code, you choose the amount you wish to charge. No fixed amount is reserved in advance; payment is transparent and processed directly.

How does charging work?
You can charge using a charging card or via the QR code displayed on the charging station screen.

Charging via QR code (step by step)
    1.    Plug the cable into the car and the charging station
    2.    Scan the QR code on the LCD screen of the charging station
    3.    Select the desired amount
    4.    Complete the payment
    5.    Start the charging session using the button in your browser
👉 Please note: the charging session only starts after pressing this button.

The webpage that opens after scanning the QR code will guide you step by step through the charging process.

Note regarding certain charging cards
Some charging card providers charge higher rates than the rate of the charging station itself. To protect our guests from unexpected costs, charging cards from BMW and KIA are temporarily not supported.

No worries: you can always charge using:
    •   one of the 600+ other supported charging cards, or
    •   direct payment via the QR code

This way, you always have clear insight into the costs.

Charging time
Charging time depends on the type of vehicle. With a fully empty battery, you can expect a charging time of approximately 4 to 5 hours.

Important
Once your vehicle is fully charged, we kindly ask you to move it from the charging station as soon as possible. Some charging card providers apply additional fees if the vehicle remains connected after charging is completed. This helps avoid unnecessary costs and ensures charging points remain available for other guests.
