KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Hounslow
- The large town of Hounslow lies between London and Heathrow Airport making it a vital part of the city’s infrastructure. It may have good public transport links but only with a car hire in Hounslow can you have the ultimate experience of freedom and flexibility to travel where you want, when you want. If you enjoy long drives, visit the City of Winchester. Once the capital of England, it and its famous cathedral lie about 55 miles southwest along the M3 and is a treat for history buffs.
- If you’re visiting Hounslow by plane, London Heathrow Airport (LHR) is less than five miles away and a perfect place to reserve your Hounslow car hire to get your explorations off to an immediate start. There are several hire car companies servicing the various Heathrow Airport terminals, including Budget, National and Avis and all are easy to find once you exit the Customs Area at the Arrivals Hall. A reservation made well in advance of your trip is essential, even more so during the peak summer season.
- The geography of Hounslow makes it a haven for heavy-duty traffic and you shouldn’t be surprised if there are bottlenecks along key roads at various times during the day. Travelling along the M4 in either direction could spell trouble trying to penetrate the outskirts of the town while the A4 (Great West Road) and A316 (Chertsey Road) are vulnerable to congestion in the downtown area. Cyclists, motorbikes and pedestrians are plentiful here, so always be on your guard.
- If you’re staying in downtown Hounslow, always have escape routes handy lest you get caught up in the 06:00-09:00 rush hour traffic attempting to exit the town for a day of adventure. Afternoon lunch hours (between 13:00 and 15:00), as well as the evening rush hours (18:00-20:00), may present nightmares for unsuspecting drivers. Have your sat nav at the ready in case those alternative routes become necessary.

The staff was very friendly and efficient both at pickup and drop off.Cons:
When we picked up the car the staff person assisting us did the processing outside at the car. This would be OK in nice weather but it was raining when we picked up. Suggest that the procedure be done as much undercover as possible when weather is bad.10,0 Wonderful
