KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Glastonbury

  • Glastonbury is a small town surrounded by natural beauty. By renting cheap car rentals in Glastonbury, you can easily drive to nearby places like Cotton Hollow Preserve, Meadowbrook Park, and Diamond Lake. Using Glastonbury car rentals can also make it easier to travel to nearby cities like Hartford, New Haven, and Springfield. Renting a car in Glastonbury can also offer a safe and reliable mode of transportation. You don't have to worry about the safety of public vehicles or the difficulty finding cabs during peak hours.
  • The Rhode Island T. F. Green International Airport (PVD) in Providence is approximately 66 miles from Glastonbury. All rental-car agencies at PVD are located in the Consolidated Rental Car Facility (CONRAC) off-site. To get to the CONRAC, passengers can take a shuttle bus outside baggage claim to the facility. The shuttle buses run 24/7 and are available every five minutes. Tweed-New Haven Airport (HVN) is approximately 38 miles from Glastonbury. A smaller regional airport, Tweed does not have rental-car agencies on-site. However, Hertz and Enterprise both have locations within a 10-minute drive from the airport. Worcester Airport (ORH) is approximately 63 miles from Glastonbury. You can pick up Glastonbury car rentals by Enterprise and Avis, which both have locations within a 10-minute drive from the airport.
  • Glastonbury is pedestrian-friendly, so you should look out for pedestrians, especially near crosswalks and intersections. Jaywalking, however, is less common in Glastonbury than in larger cities, and it’s rare for pedestrians to step out into the road without warning. There are, however, few dedicated bicycle lanes in Glastonbury, so most cyclists ride on the roads. Thus, you should be cautious when passing cyclists and maintain your distance from them. The most common vehicles you’ll encounter when driving cheap car rentals in Glastonbury are sedans, SUVs, and pickup trucks. Luxury cars are also quite common, as Glastonbury is an affluent town with a high standard of living.
  • Glastonbury experiences heavy traffic during peak rush-hour times, which typically occur from around 7:30 am to 9:30 am and from 4:30 pm to 6:30 pm on weekdays. The busiest roads during rush hour might include Highway 2, Highway 3, and Highway 17. During the winter, Glastonbury can also receive a significant amount of snowfall, which can make driving cheap car rentals in Glastonbury more difficult. It’s important for drivers to be aware of road conditions and to adjust their driving accordingly.
  • Intermediate hire cars in Glastonbury are around 59% cheaper than other car types, on average

    Mid-sized Glastonbury car rentals would be an ideal choice for driving in Glastonbury. Mid-sized cars are small and easy to handle, making it a delight to navigate tight turns and narrow streets in Glastonbury. This will be especially useful when you’re driving downtown, where parking spots tend to be small. A mid-sized car is more fuel-efficient than larger vehicles, and though gas prices in Glastonbury are average, you can save a significant amount of money on gas with a mid-sized car.

  • What’s the speed limit in Glastonbury?

    In Glastonbury, residential areas have a speed limit of 25 mph, while other areas have higher speed limits. On multi-lane divided highways, such as Highway 2, you may drive 65 mph in some places. On undivided highways, such as Highway 3, the speed limit is typically 40-50 mph. In downtown areas, the speed limit is typically 25 mph. School zones and other areas with high pedestrian traffic may have a lower speed limit, typically around 15-20 mph.

  • Where are the best places to park in Glastonbury?

    Many streets in downtown Glastonbury offer free on-street parking, which can be used for up to two hours at a time. However, it can be difficult to find a spot close to your destination, especially during busy times of day. Additionally, there are several municipal and private parking lots around town that offer free and paid parking. Some streets in the city center have paid parking meters that charge hourly rates. The cost of parking in municipal lots varies from free of charge to $5-10 per day, whereas private parking lots might charge more. Paid street parking costs $1-2 per hour.

Cons:

When I arrived to pick up my vehicle, I was told that they had no vehicles available it would be at least two days before they had any. They blamed it on a glitch in their computer system and that they had had this problem before. It seems to me that’s a pretty massive problem they should work out, because I created a major disruption in my schedule and my plans, and Enterprise did nothing but say “sorry, try somewhere else.”

Pros:

The process for both pick-up and drop-off were super quick and easy, despite obvious limitations with covid.

Cons:

They left me in the dark about my refund for my deposit for using a debit card at pick-up. Still unsure if and when I’ll be receiving it back.

Pros:

Staff was friendly and helpful. Efficient. No problems in picking up car. Smooth

Cons:

Car had handling problems that made it hard to keep car on road evenly. Also we brought car back with way more gas than we left with and there was no recourse for a refund.
