Top tips for hiring a car at Basel/Mulhouse Airport
- If you’re visiting Basel, Mulhouse, or Freiburg and prefer the flexibility and independence of having your own transportation, getting a car rental at Basel EuroAirport Swiss is the best option. It’s an ideal option if you have more luggage and want to avoid the hassle and congestion of public transport. Renting a car at the airport also saves you time. You don’t have to visit different downtown locations looking for the perfect rental car.
- Getting a car rental at Basel EuroAirport Swiss is not complicated. Different companies have rental desks at their airport. Once you arrive at the airport, head straight to the car rental desks in your specific sector. Remember to carry all the required rental documents.

You’ll be escorted or given directions to the car rental pickup location outside the main Terminal. Inspect the car for any damages before driving off.

Return the vehicle in the same condition as you received it to avoid extra fees. Your rental company will inspect the car for any damages and return your deposit in full if there are no issues.

May 2017
Cons:
The original car I was given had a slow leak in a tire. A warning light came on indicating low tire pressure. I filled up the tire, but even though I didn't drive it for the next couple days, the tire continued to lose air. Ended up having to swap the car. Besides THAT inconvenience, I received an email from SIXT wanting to know how *I* had damaged the car! Not nice, and definitely an unpleasant experience.6,8 Okay

Pros:
The car was newCons:
it wasn't the car I had booked. I booked a compact like a VW Up or similar, manual, for 143 and ended up getting a massive Skoda Rapid wagon, automatic, and had to pay almost double the price for it at 217. I had no time to argue. But I got thoroughly ripped off. Will stick with Hertz8,0 Very Good

Oct 2016
Pros:
Everything about the rental went smoothly, the car was clean and comfortable.Cons:
It was a bit confusing to find the rental place, since Basel airport has a french side and a swiss side. Of course it's not Hertz's fault, just pay attention if you're renting in Basel airport. Another point is that we paid in advance for a second driver and ended up not using it - would have been nice if there was an option to add another driver in the middle of the trip.10,0 Wonderful
