CAR in franch sectorAn upgradeThe car was located in the French sector without a Swiss vinget. I was unaware. Extremely expensive insurance, a real ripoff deal. Feel screwed with a low rate and extras afterwards.
7.2 GoodAug 23 2018
Good car but insurance and fees are ridiculous.The Citroen Cactus that I rented was a good car it performed well on the roads and it was good on gas mileage. The staff at Sixt were helpful and courteous.I hate the expensive zero liability insurance that they charge it doubled the price of the rental on top of what I paid to Kayak. This was way too expensive. I can understand a couple of hundred dollars for insurance but really 500-600 dollar more was insane. I know rental car insurance in Europe is expensive for travelers but this was way out of bounds. I will not be using Sixt again for this reason, I had a better experience with Europcar.
9.6 ExcellentJul 23 2018
Overall very good experienceWe rented on the French side of GVA, which was a bit hard to find. There was a wait at the counter, but the staff member was very helpful to us. There were detailed instructions on avoiding the Swiss toll roads, and finding the rental return, which was much appreciated.The car was parked in an awkward/dark spot in the garage, so we could not look at the car very completely when we started the rental.

Helpful Staff, informative, great carThe staff was super helpful -- it was my first time driving in Switzerland and I didn't know if I needed chains on my tires, etc. The man who helped me provided me with a car with winter tires and GPS and put us into a really nice car.I had to modify my reservation and make it one day shorter due to a flight cancellation -- my rental cost nearly doubled after that.

It was not complicated, the car was good value and we got through quickly.We were told our MasterCard which had a chip but not raised letters was not acceptable. We protested and eventually they took it and we never had another problem the rest of our trip with the card.

3.6 MediocreFeb 20 2018
Never, ever, ever againNothing to really likeI regularly rent cars both in the UK and abroad and so I'm fully aware of the requirement and options of damage waivers & extra payment to redue insurance excess to Zero. This is my first booking with Kayak & Sixt and the level of extras required is excessive. My original booking was for £240 and this increased to £500 with extras. Some were valid such as an additional driver & damage waiver however charging extra for road tax & compulsory winter tyres & premium location fees is clearly taking advantage. Not to mention having to pay for tyre and glass cover over and above the full damage waiver. Never ever ever again, Ever.

the car was good, clean and relatively new.the pricing policy is complete trash. i booked a car for approx. USD200 and ended up more than USD500, including all the fees, insurances, and surprise costs. Futhermore, I have been billed above the contractual fee, although I have returned the car undamaged, with very limited used kilometers (it was unlimited anyway), and a full tank. I'm going for file a formal complaint to recover these additional costs!
9.6 ExcellentFeb 19 2020
Staff Leila was very friendly, courteous and helpful.Helpful that the "Boss" of the rental agency did not park her personal car in front of my rental spot, forcing me to call and wait and wait and wait until she had the time to come and move her car allowing me to go on my trip 15 minutes later. There is no excuse for that, as well as for her nonchalant attitude.

The car was clean. Everything else was hopeless.A very slow line to pick up the car. There was no way to book winter tires in advance, so the price doubled when we got there. Unpleasant staff. The insurance excess was €25000. You were forces to sign the contract, including the inspection verifying the car was ok before you got to see the car.

Car was totally inadequate for the location (Geneva): now winter tires nor Swiss vignet. Also the check in guy was hard selling expensive upgrades: “you have the wrong car, you need to change to an SUV, as only that car has snow tires.” Something that is compulsory for all cars in Switzerland anyway...
5.6 OkayJan 7 2020
Brand new car, pleasant staffWhen booking online the price was €320 with possible surcharge of maximum €5 per day for winter tyres. However when we went to pick up the car, we were told That the cost of winter tires would be €61 per day, for a total of €671, more than tripling the original cost. We refused to pay and were very upset by the experience and the failure to respect the original conditions
4.4 OkayJan 6 2020
Absolutely nothing, the drive was terrible!There was no instructions for pick up so we spent over an hour ending up in the wrong the area at the airport waiting in line and taking buses. The staff made no apologies, what so ever. The car was also over due a device by 1500k, so the warning light kept pinging. Also there was no water in the windscreen wipers. All in all, a terrible experience

When returning the vehicle, the agent found two speck-of-dust-sized chips on the windshield. I'm almost certain these would have been there when I picked it up given I never would have seen these without the special flashlight he was using for his own inspection. Now I am being charged $3000 after having been extra careful with the car. Filing insurance using my own credit card benefits so should not be an issue - but overall a terrible experience with drop-off, leaving me feeling cheated.
10.0 ExcellentSep 23 2021
we had a trip delay (Delta Airlines) of about 12 hours. Atlanta - Geneva. The Alamo rental office in Geneva French side was closed. So, we slept in a hotel in Geneva. We got the car the next morning. The Alamo employees could not have been nicer. They under stood our big delay, I think they gave us a one-level up SUV. The car had no problem, except one morning, the red light for oil and maintenance lit up. We stopped at a garage, they added a little bit of oil, checked all fluid levels. This fixed the light warning. We had no problem thereafter. As I returned the car, I mentioned the CHF 12.50 expense. The Alamo employee reduced my bill, by this amount without any question. Overall, very pleased with Alamo Geneva French side.
1.9 HorribleSep 12 2021
Warning - this company is fraudulent. During my rental, I hit a small animal which caused small damage to a plastic part on the car. This required replacing the plastic component, something that was billed at 700 CHF. This is fine, and fully my responsibility. However, on top of this, they took the opportunity to also repair a ton of scratches at various places on the car, that had been caused prior to my rental. Even though Alamo acknowledges that the scratches were present beforehand, they still charged me for the paint job of 900 CHF. I have contacted them on multiple occasions to get this reimbursed, and their "damage team" will get back to me "in one week". It is now almost two months. I have disputed the charge with my credit card company, hopefully Alamo will now take their responsibility and behave like decent human beings in a civilized country.
2.0 MediocreFeb 17 2020
Staff was friendly, but the car I booked was not there. They offered no replacement and no help. Said my only option was to try to book another car from another company at the last minute or wait over 6 hours for the car to arrive (on a one day booking!). So I had to cancel my trip.They could have actually had the car that I had booked. Barring that, they could have made some kind of effort to find me another.

There apparently is a French and Swiss side to the airport with car rentals at both places. The French side is smaller with less car but maybe a better deal. I rented a small suv because I was going skiing. They did not have that car but they “upgraded” me two classes to a luxury wagon without AWd. It worked for this trip but was not what I wanted. Also, the road signs and gps are not clear how to get back to the French side. We almost missed our plane. Found it by accident and not following what the signs would indicate

She was not willing to let us have the car unless we purchased the insurance. This left us no choice and cost us an extra $250!!! Of course I am going to demand that KAYAK (who, if this requirement is correct, misled us) or Enterprise (who, if this requirement is false, lied to us) reimburse us fully for the $250.

When told them that we would be traveling to Annecy in France they told us to travel through Switzerland, we were not told about a 40 Swiss Franc road tax we would need to pay as the rental car did not have the road tax on it. When asked about this when dropping the car off the customer rep just shrugged us off and said its not there problem
2.0 MediocreMay 24 2017
I cancelled the reservation with enterprise.Nothing, I'm not using kayak or enterprise ever again.Enterprise wanted to put a 5000 dollar hold on my credit card because I didn't get insurance through them. I purchased the insurance offered when I booked the reservation with kayak but apparently that wasn't good enough and kayak never told me anything. At least Avis helped me rent a vehicle for my trip. I will never use kayak or enterprise they are misleading and not worth the trouble of dealing with them. I will also be warning all my friends to avoid these two terrible companies.

Deteriorating customer serviceNo problems with car.No windshield washer fluid, was a real problem driving in bad weather on the highway. I guess that's something I assumed would be there. Unfortunately, this is not the first time. Service not nearly as helpful as usual. In the past we have made an effort to rent from Hertz because of the extra effort they have made at this location. This time they made out the whole contract and we were about to sign when we noticed it was 300 € over our reservation price. Had to re-do. Price was already about 50% higher than what we usually pay at this location (Geneva airport, French sector) Also, we seemed to remember always getting snow tires in the winter as part of the standard package. Apparently not.

Very misleading rental process with Kayak and Hertz in GenevaRental price was ok for Geneva, got a good car (Mercedes A class)The online rental process is completely misleading and full if miscommunication (on purpose?): The pick up location was on the French side of the airport, but until the last step of the booking process Kayak and Carrentals stated "Swiss side" Usually no vignette for Swiss highways is included on the French side, so you pay CHF 40 extra The car did not come with winter tires, not sure thst is legal

Hertz charged me currency conversion fees without asking first

It was a bad experience with HertizIt was cleanThey took extra money more than we agreed on the site with the insurance despite of your offer price which made me cancel another reservation because I thought you were better price and offers .I had an accident I lost the key and they didn't give me a nother car or a Spair key for the car and they sent someone to pick up the car and left us in the rain with my children in the highway waiting for the Taxi for 2 hours. .It will be the last time I rent a car from Hertiz or with your site if you didn't solve the problem.

Horrible serviceI had to cancel my reservation and was bumped between priceline and hertz a total of 4 times. Each saying the other was responsible for cancelling. I still have not received a message confirming the cancellation and that I have not been charged. I know that this is an automated bank to receive feedback but here's hoping you care about your customers to investigate and respond.

It was a horrible experienceNothingVery poor customer service and did not help me when I needed it. Will Never rent from hertz again

Disastrous experienceI had deliberately called at the time of booking to confirm that the booking was for the SWISS side at Geneva airport. That was confirmed at the time while booking it was at the French side. I was forced to pay an extra of 400 Euros on the spot due to this.

Smelled like cigarrettesIt was cheap,Got a smaller car than was depicted online, car had the worst cigarette smell that made we almost want to vomit. Got hit for a $150 cleaning fee and $60 fee for parking it in the wrong spot even though it was still an avis lot. Will not be renting from this company again.

FeedbackOnly positive was that the car had navigation.The process of picking up the car was a hassle. They tried to up sell me twice (on the type of car). They also gave me a car with summer tires in March in France/Switzerland, that was very very dangerous. The return process was poor as well.
2.0 MediocreMar 6 2018
Terrible experienceNice staffThey charged me almost double my reservation cost. Did not have the van I reserved. Moved me to the French side of the airport rather than the swiss which has all sorts of ramification if you want to drive on the Swiss highway system. TERRIBLE

Top tips for hiring a car at Geneva Geneve-Cointrin Airport

  • Travelling to the ever-peaceful Switzerland always has a special appeal. With its central location, it's uniquely situated as a base to explore central Europe. The great road network of autobahns makes car hire at Geneva Geneve-Coitrin Airport (GVA) the best way to explore to your heart's desire, whether you prefer a metropolitan experience or a road trip in the countryside. Known for great quality of life, the Swiss experience translates to car hire as well. Every company boasts new models with a big variety to choose from, so you don't have to compromise on anything.
  • Car hire at Geneva Geneve-Coitrin Airport is unique, because it is divided into two sections, each serving a different country. On the Swiss side, all the rental companies provide Swiss-registered cars, so, if you plan to spend the majority of your time inside Switzerland, this is your port of call. However, if your aim is to explore Switzerland and the surrounding European Union countries, it is better to rent from the French side of the airport, as EU cars don't incur extra taxes or duties like Swiss-registered cars might. While Switzerland is part of the European Economic Area (EEA), they are not part of the EU, and specific terms and conditions may apply to Swiss cars. Be sure to clarify this when you make your booking on KAYAK.
  • For the environmentally-conscious traveller, the car rental agencies do have zero-emission cars available. However, these models are very popular and slightly more expensive, so make sure you book your car well in advance. Switzerland is very environmentally oriented, so you won't have a problem finding a charging station.
  • Geneva Geneve Coitrin airport car hire has the added advantage of being the perfect location to collect a luxury car, with many models available. Spoil yourself with an affordable upgrade to a "premium" listed car. However, these cars require partial or sometimes even full prepayment. They also typically have a longer free cancellation period (between 24h and 72h) before your scheduled arrival. All the premium cars have unlimited mileage, so you can take the scenic route to your skiing holiday in the Swiss or French Alps.
