Staff were very helpful, price was great, pick-up/drop-off was straightforward. They didn't have the car we had reserved so we were given an upgrade for free.Called ahead to let them know we would be 1-2 hours late with drop-off for which we were charged an entire day. Not a big deal but pro-rating would be more reasonable I think.

The staff were helpful enough but they didn't work for DollarThe insurance advertised was terrible - it covered nothing and when called they said "we are not a car insurance company" They should NOT be advertised as viable insurance on the Kayak website - this is seriously irresponsible.

7.6 Good11 Dec 2018
The booking process included a "ZERO FRANCHISE" insurance as optional. Even though I chose it, additional money was held from the Credit Card due to the fact that insurance doesn't belong to the car rental company. THAT S NOT CLEAR IN THE BOOKING PROCESS AND IN CASE OF DAMAGE WILL DEMAND LOTS OF PAPER WORK !!! WHAT IS NOT THE IDEA BEHIND A ZERO FRANCHISE INSURANCE !

Complete bait in switch. I rented a Mercedes C class or equivalent and they gave me some sort of Ford soccer mom POS. It was also a vehicle of a size and a lack of acceleration of which I had no experience driving (which was a safety issue). I had specifically chosen a car for my trip that was safe and suitable to the driving conditions in the areas I expected to be driving. #Never Budget

I had requested a pick up at 6 pm. We arrived about 10 minutes late (coming off an international flight and a train ride). When we got there the location was closed and no notes left. We could not reach anybody helpful on the phone. Hertz Customer Service just forwarded my call to another location in Zurich that was still open and was not able to help us. We had to find overnight accommodation. The next morning I started calling at 7 AM to ensure we could still pick up the car. For the first hour, nobody picked up the phone. At about 8 AM I reached an extremely unfriendly employee at Hertz Customer Service (he informed me that this issue seemed like a me-problem not a him-problem; it was really quite unbelievable). He promised to call back immediately. I did not receive a call. After an hour I called again and talked to the same person again who promised that this time he'll make sure the rental location calls me back. They never did. By 12 pm I got a hold of the actual rental location who informed me that the car had long since been rented to another customer. And that was that. A three week rental no longer available, with no other cars available. There wasn't even an apology. This is by far the poorest car rental experience I have ever had in any country.

I’m 180cm tall with an average body, although the drive be is fun but I don’t recommend this car for any drive longer than one hour, well this is not Hertz problem, I should complain to the car designers!!

Please provide the list of cars available in a class. For example, I have signed up on Sixt website for Peugeot 300i but i was given smaller mini cooper.

It is not a fair business practice

The rental counter was easy to find. The car was clean and ready to go. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly at drop-off and pick-up. They offered us a "discount" for an upgrade on several different types of cars. We took advantage of this because we had more luggage than anticipated when we booked the car.As others have said - we also purchased the extended coverage from Allianz and Sixt had no record of that. However, they did not require that we do so.

was upgraded to a very nice vehicle. staff was nice. bathroom was available and clean at the pick up location. was easy to get to and from the thrifty (Hertz) rental shop, out of the city and to the highway. Gas station near the shop so it was easy to fill back up on the way back into townwould have been helpful to have more clean instructions on where to bring the car back to when returning. We went back into the same garage but it was unclear when we picked up that there was an entrance in the same place as we exited. thought we had to come in the back and got a bit turned around.

I wish I had been given the Volvo that Thrifty shows in the pictures. The actual car we get is always a much smaller and simpler model, unfortunately. However, the car only had 10km on it, which was a plus.

Much better than expected!We had reserved a car through Thrifty many months before and had worried about adequate luggage space as our daughters were joining us for the second week of our trip to Switzerland. Had also researched the waiver/insurance situation for an overseas rental and had some anxiety about it. Both agents were very helpful, flexible and patient while we made the decision ax to model. She offered us a selection which suited us well. She also accepted our coverage on our Cap One VISA, which I had researched thoroughly beforehand.It was clear that any unrecorded scratched on the car would be a liability for us, so we were careful to use the flashlight on our phones and go over the car carefully when we were in the checkout process. It is very important that you take the time to do this AND Mark die anything you see and take it BACK into the desk fir them to record. I know you are in a hurry to get moving, but this is ESSENTIAL. And research your particular credit card coverage carefully; if it isn’t complete, you may be in a tough situation and might do better paying the waiver. Ask what deductible your coverage is; you want ZERO.

The person at the counter told me that if I returned the car a day early, I would only be charged for the days I rented the car. I returned the car a day early and they still charged me Euro 270 which was the two day rental charge - which by itself is a price gouging, exorbitant rate

We liked our vehicle once we finally got what we thought we were getting. They did work with us on switching vehicles but we're not very happy about it.The photo showed on line was iof a large van, not a minivan. We were paying about $1,500, which is a lot money for a rental vehicle. There were six adults and seven pieces of luggage. We traveled with the same group a couple of years ago and knew we needed a larger vehicle. However, when we got to Avis, they tried to send us with a minivan. We went back to the counter and they reassigned us vehicles four different times! It was a painful and lengthy process. In the end, we finally got an in between size vehicle, which worked out fine. It's just too bad they didn't give us what was pictured initially. We end up spending the first two hours of our vacation trying to get our rental vehicle straightened out, which was rather irritating for all of us!

Great staff in Zurich!When I booked, the airport was not a drop off option. We picked the car up in Florence and was a one-way drop. When we got to the city location in Zurich, the attendant told us we could return at the airport, no problem, he reviewed the vehicle issues we had, made notes & programmed the airport location into our gps. Airport drop off was quick & easy.

The car was great. Fuel efficiency is one of my main criterion and this car was excellent.The drop-off location in Milano Centrale was hard to find in a little street very congested and not that near to the train station. I had to run to catch my train.

Top tips for hiring a car in Zurich
- Discover the scenic city of Zurich and its beautiful landscape conveniently with a car. The quickest and easiest way from the airport, which is situated over 6 miles from the center, is by renting a car. Switzerland is among one of the most popular European countries for road trips, as it stuns visitors with its beautiful landscape, well-maintained roads, and lovely little villages dotting the countryside.
- The easiest way to get in and around Zurich is to rent a car from one of the on-site airport car rental services upon arrival at Zurich International Airport. The rental center can be found in the Airport Center on Level 1, where cars from companies like Alamo, Enterprise, and Europcar await you. Follow the A1L into the heart of Zurich and let your fun in Switzerland begin.
- Zurich is, like many European cities, very old and was built before cars were used, so inside the city streets tend to be narrow and parking is scarce. The city also has many one-way roads, which makes navigating a bit of a challenge at the beginning, so using a satnav or mapping out the route beforehand is a good idea. During peak hours in the mornings and evenings (around 6-8 am and 4-6 pm), congestion can occur and driving through the city during these times is not advised.
- Switzerland has many gems to offer, and exploring the country by car allows travelers to find the best places. Street conditions in Switzerland are among the best in the world, but driving through the Alps, especially in wintery conditions, can be challenging for people who are not used to it. Drive slowly and make sure the rental car is properly equipped. Drivers who opt for an automatic car should familiarize themselves how to adapt speed for long, steep roads.
- 25% of our users found rental cars in Zurich for ₹ 4,173 or less
- Book your rental car in Zurich at least 4 weeks before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Off-airport rental car locations in Zurich are around 22% cheaper than airport locations on average
- Intermediate rental cars in Zurich are around 30% cheaper than other car types, on average

All speed limits in Zurich are given in kilometers per hour. The general regulations allow up to 50 km/h (31 mph) in residential, built-up areas and 80 km/h (49 mph) outside residential areas. Expressways allow up to 100 km/h (62 mph) and on the freeway there is a maximum speed limit of 120 km/h (74 mph). Speed always has to be adapted to weather conditions.
The average price for gas in Zurich is around CHF2.30 per liter ($2.32 per ¼ gallon, or $9.28 per gallon). Bear in mind that many gas stations, especially within the city, close at 10 pm and open again at 6 am in the morning. Highway gas stations tend to be more expensive and should be avoided if possible.
Parking inside the city can be an exhausting undertaking and, if your hotel does not have a parking space included, it is not advised to seek parking inside. Many parking spots are reserved for residents and metered parking is very expensive. Find one of the P+Rs in the outskirts of the city and travel into Zurich with public transport, or opt for one of the city garages.
