Top tips for hiring a car in Scottsdale

  • Whether you’re bouncing between the many golf courses Scottsdale has to offer, venturing into Phoenix situated southwest of the city, or exploring Tonto National Forest, by renting a car you can do all of the above conveniently within your own timeframe. The area is best explored with a car, so enjoy the many great things Scottsdale has to offer by renting a car.
  • Travelers who arrive in Scottsdale at the Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport will be pleased to know that there are several hire car agencies on the grounds. Start your journey free of stress by renting a car directly at the airport and be in Scottsdale in about twenty minutes via the N Scottsdale Road. The hire car center is located in its own building and there is a shuttle operating between the terminals and the hire center. The bus stops are outside the terminals, past the baggage claim area.
  • Especially during summer, monsoons can occur regularly in Scottsdale and the whole of Arizona, and they bring heavy rain showers, strong winds, and dust storms – all of which can severely impair visibility. Should you drive into such a monsoon, try to find a safe place to park the car and wait until it has abated. Also do not drive into flooded areas, usually marked with a warning sign, or the car can lose traction and you will need to be towed out of the flooded area.
  • Rush hours in Scottsdale occur at 6-9 am and 5-7 pm, where traffic, specifically between Scottsdale and Phoenix, can increase dramatically. Try to avoid driving through the city during these times, and especially when heading to the airport, allow plenty of extra time (at least two hours), so you don’t miss your flight.
  • Book your car hire in Scottsdale at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Supplier choice car hire in Scottsdale are around 18% cheaper than other car types, on average

Even though there was only one person working at the time, he was really quick/efficient and very courteous! When he went outside with the customer before me he made sure to tell me he would be with me very shortly, and he was. The whole process of getting the car was smooth and way easier than I thought it would be (I had never rented a car before)! It was an all-around great experience!

Pick up was Great, Hertz closed at 530pm and return time was at 8pm after hours the next day. At checkin Hertz Rep said “No problem for after hours return if closed. Just lock the car and return keys In drop box”. I return car the next at 7pm before my 8pm return time and drop keys in rental box. I few hrs later I receive an alert from my CC advising me of a Fraudulent $100 charge made by Hertz rent-a-car that was just attempted on my card. Thankfully My Bank declined the charge. Be careful who you rent from.

Pros:

We decided to rent at the airport, so I was happy that you had cars in stock.

Cons:

The employee at the office was fairly rude. We arrived and was told that even though we booked a van, we were not guaranteed anything that big. Basically said, just because you booked a van, you might end up with a car. The van was older and scratched up. The passenger door handle on the inside was broken. It was fairly clean inside, so I was happy about that, but the van was tired and should not be rented anymore. National would not have a car like that in their inventory.

Nov 2020

KAYAK

Pros:

The pickup/drop off location person (Marc) was very nice and did what he could to help but his hands were tied by the company limiting what he was able to do.

Cons:

The first car we got had mechanical issues and we had to return it 10 minutes after leaving the shop. The second vehicle we got had major mechanical issues. We had to drive 30 minutes back to the shop. The third vehicle we got was a sedan not an SUV which is what we requested when making the reservation. I have lodged a complaint with customer service and have asked for a full credit. We spent a total of 4.5 hours going back and forth trying to get into a safe, working vehicle. We lost an entire day of travel and did not end up with an SUV which was challenging for some of the places we visited. We were not able to go to certain places in the sedan because those locations required four wheel drive to access. Overall it was not a good experience. A car rental company of this caliber should have properly working and safe vehicles for their customers. The individual locations should be able to offer more customer service and better solutions for their clients. Sixt is over-priced for what they claim to offer and I hope that customer service will recognized the failures. The vehicles were unsafe which put us at risk and our vacation plans were significantly altered due to not having four whell drive. Very disappointing.

Vehicle originally rented was not available and the replacement option was not luxury....the replacement (van )took over 1.5 hours to get ready. The inside of the van was filthy dirty and I had to personally disinfect it before our trip. The salesman offered an 8 % discount which was not worth switching vehicle types. With covid going on, I assumed the cleaning process would be more through to prevent the spread.

I had a confirmed reservation priced at $435.20. When I arrived at AVIS, I was told my RESERVED CAR was not available and the only car that was was going to cost me 200 DOLLARS MORE. Given that I was alone, had no way to get another rental, and that time was of the essence because my sister was ADMITTED TO HOSPICE that day and I needed to get there ASAP, I had no choice but to take the car. I’m not sure why I should ever use KAYAK if your your system cannot lock in the price with a RESERVATION. I filled a complaint via your KAYAK customer service and NOTHING HAS BEEN RESOLVED. Feeling abused by both KAYAK and AVIS and will NEVER USE YOUR APP and will tell others not to use it as well and will never rent from AVIS again given their utter and complete dishonesty. A completely HORRIBLE experience.
