A car was available for me to drive. That was good. The bad: 1) Original quote was for £ 275 - the local Hertz desk charged me £ 691 and tried to charge me over £ 800!! 2) I requested an automatic transmission and got a stick 3) there was a huge scratch in the rear passenger door 4) There was no return sign at the Inverness airport for Hertz, all the other rental car agencies were represented but not Hertz. We had to drive around for 10 min trying to find it, and luckily saw the tiny Hertz sign upon leaving the airport. Kind of a disaster regarding the drop off.Reviewed Oct 22 2021

Cons:The offering of insurance prior to getting the vehicle should have been better , since the insurance at the counter was outrageous. Also the drop off should have been described, since in that airport it is rather convoluted.Reviewed Feb 18 2020

Check you carCons:Check your car before you rent. Some hubcap scratches cost $100 because I didn't inspect before I rented. The employee was difficult, the location hard to reach, and they offered no assistance with finding my way in the city.Reviewed Aug 7 2018

Beware of Scottish road safety specificsPros:Easy rental check out. Great car.Cons:I scratched 2 tires and rims (because of the road conditions in scotland) and was charged $500 US by Hertz. They excused it as common practice for Scotland because of tighter road safety laws but I’ve never been charged (anywhere else) for tire marks.Reviewed Jul 28 2018

• Which types of Edinburgh Hertz car hire are recommended for booking?

  Travel expenses and size of your party are critical factors when it comes to booking Edinburgh Hertz car hire. Compacts and economy cars are extremely popular choices among budget-conscious singles and couples for their affordability, handling and ease of parking. Alternatively, we highly recommend people carriers and passengers vans to families and groups of five or more for their generous seating and storage capacity. The agency offers a select group of green vehicles for those who insist on driving cars with a reduced carbon footprint, but when cost is not a concern always opt for a deluxe SUV or luxury car.

Bank debit cards with MC or visa logos and major credit cards are accepted for payment and customers with reservations must produce the same payment card used to book the vehicle. In all instances, payment cards must bear the name of the registered driver.
