KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Westminster

  • One of the ideal decisions to make when visiting Westminster is to rent a car to serve you during your stay in the city. Car rentals in Westminster will enable you to explore the city with ease of transit. You can drive to Westminster Central Park, commonly referred to as Peter Pan Park, on 92nd Avenue to have a picnic and enjoy the English theme. No better place to feel the English culture than the 28.4 miles away from Westminster central park from DIA. If you are into hiking, mountain biking, and other nature adventures, you could also drive to Big Dry Creek Trail open year-round and 31.6 miles from Denver International Airport. Enjoy southwestern cuisine at the Kachina Southwestern Grill 30.3 miles away, all while enjoying the drive there.
  • Westminster car rentals offer a more convenient and flexible means of traversing the city. When driving your rental car in the city, you need to be aware of the toll roads and those that are toll-free. In particular, Westminster has three roads, which you can utilize if you want to beat the heavy traffic on most of the other roads. This will go a long way in enabling you to get to your preferred destinations within the shortest time possible. Pikes Peak Highway, Northwest Parkway, and E-470 are the roads you expect to pay tolls when driving on them.
  • Since Denver International Airport (DEN) is a central airline hub for the largest aviation market, just 28.4 miles from Westminster. Car rentals in Westminster are recommended when looking for transport options across town. DEN onsite car rental center is at the Jeppesen Terminal marked Rent-A-Car. The agencies that will serve you at the car rental center include, Thrifty, Sixt, Payless, National, Hertz, Fox, Enterprise, Dollar, Budget, Avis, and Alamo. The agencies operate courtesy shuttles to and from the terminal. The pick-up and drop-off point are Island 4 on level 5, outside the 505-513 east side and 504-512 west side doors.
  • To rent a car from any of the cheap car rentals in Westminster, you must be 21 years old or above. At a number of pickup locations for various car agencies, you must be 25 years or older for you to rent any of the luxury cars. A valid driver's license is one of the mandatory documents you need to have when picking up your car from any of the locations in Westminster. The license must be in your name and remain valid for the entire rental period. Unfortunately, you will not be able to rent a car in Westminster if you have a Learners' or Instructional Permit.
  • Navigating the roads in Westminster is not easy for even regular drivers. As a new driver on these roads, you need to be extra alert to get through the many mini-roundabouts. The streets in Westminster are prone to be shared by many pedestrians as they have priority over cars. Pedestrians can cross the road anywhere and anytime. Ensure, therefore, that you are keen on the road while driving to avoid issues of accidents.
  • Ensure compliance with the child seat rule any time you are driving your rental car in Westminster with your young ones. This rule requires that any child aged below 12 years or weighing less than 20 pounds must always travel in a rear-facing seat. You can get these seats and other restraint systems, such as booster seats and infant seats, from any of the cheap car rentals in Westminster. However, all these car rentals will charge you a small additional fee per day for the use of the child seat, infant seat, or booster seat.
  • Westminster roads are busy and therefore experience heavy traffic during rush hour periods. These periods have large volumes of vehicles moving, but with a relatively consistent speed, meaning it's moving traffic. The rush hour peak periods last more than an hour; therefore, ensure you are equipped for traffic when driving. The rush hour periods are between 5 to 9 am and 4-8 pm and sometimes stretch to 9:00 pm. There are mini-rushes during lunchtimes and theatre closing times.
  • Standard hire cars in Westminster are around 79% cheaper than other car types, on average

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Westminster?

    The vehicle capacity for both luggage and the number of persons for transit should dictate the kind of car you rent for use in Westminster. However, since Westminster is known for Congestion charges that are charged on all vehicles operating on the roads, electric car rentals in Westminster would be ideal for transit. Electric cars are exempt from paying both the Ultra-Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) and London congestion charges, making them an economically suitable car type to rent from the agencies. There are also boroughs, including Hounslow and Barking, and Dagenham, that allows free parking for electric vehicles hence the ideal rental car option when looking to rent one. Westminster also has over a thousand charge points for electric cars on-street for convenience.

  • Is there a congestion charge in Westminster?

    Yes. Expect to pay a congestion charge whenever you are driving your car in Westminster's congestion charge zone. All the congestion charge zones have signposts with white 'C' in a red circle. This enables the new drivers in the city to know when they are entering a congestion charge zone.

  • What's the speed limit in Westminster?

    Westminster has introduced a speed limit of 20 mph on all the borough roads. The speed limit commitment is in an attempt to improve the safety, cleanliness, and health of the streets for everyone in the city. The city uses the red-light camera program to monitor speed limits across the city. Ensure you stay within the acceptable speed limit to avoid penalties.

  • Can you rent a specific model or type of car in Westminster?

    Unfortunately, you will not be able to rent a specific car type or model from any other car rental location in Westminster except at Denver International Airport (DEN). This is because Westminster car rentals have the largest fleet of cars at DEN than any other location. However, the due to the high number of those who prefer picking up their cars from this location, getting your preferred car model or type will depend on its availability.

  • Where are the best places to park in Westminster?

    Westminster is not a busy city on Sundays; therefore, most of the parking stations and spaces are open and free of charge on these days. The on-street parking spaces are also free for parking and free of charge during non-peak hours. Parking time runs between 8:30 am to 6:30 am. Therefore, you can utilize parking spaces past 6:30 in the evening since most parking spaces offer free parking past this time until the following day. You can also opt for parking in Abbey Orchard Street Westminster, which costs about $4.83 (£4.20)

I booked on Kayak with details selected for Denver airport. However, the car that was booked was at a location 25 min from the airport so I had to cancel. This wasted a ton of time as I had to wait for another shuttle back to the airport so I could get on another shuttle to another rental company.

Hertz online hours are wrong, so we went to pick up our reserved car and they were closed. We went back the next morning (30 minutes early because their morning hours are wrong too) and they didn't have a car for us. I'm not sure why they let us reserve a car they didn't have but they basically told us tough luck and didn't try to accommodate us at all. Awful experience and horrible service all around.

Pros:

NOTHING

Cons:

I prepaid for my Hertz rental and got a call the morning of the reservation saying that they did not have a car for me. The Hertz employee was EXTREMELY rude on the phone. When I called Hertz, they told me I had to call a different number for the refund. I called that number and it connected me back to the exact same customer service menu. They ended up switching my reservation to a different location and i got ANOTHER call 15 minutes before I was supposed to pick up my car saying that there was no car for me! Long story short - I am still trying to get my money refunded and I never got a car from them. Worst car rental experience EVER
