One problem for holidaymakers renting electric cars is that the charging infrastructure in rural areas isn't as thorough as it is on the UK's motorways.
Airbnb owner claims holiday makers running cables out the window is theft if electricity.
We once stayed at an Airbnb in Florida. The property owners were not local. They had an employee come give us an orientation to the house upon check in. During the check-in he had us read the electric meter. When we left we had to read the meter again. The electric rate was in the rental contract so it became part of our final bill. It was a little strange but it made sense that we would pay for what we used.

Would it make sense if a hotel did that?
Some hotels charge a hidden “resort fee” and $20 a night for parking. So yes I really could see a hotel charging a fee to charge your car.
Chargers at hotels are usually regular public ones, so you pay the regular public charging cost.
For a holiday home, if it has a charger it’s probably just added onto the cost.
