There is a free shuttle bus from the airport, but the pick-up point at London Heathrow Airport was hard to find, and we had to wait a long time for the Europcar shuttle. The rental office is quite far from the airport. The car pickup was smooth overall; we booked an Audi A4 but received a Mercedes C-Class. The staff didn't try to upsell anything, but they also didn't provide detailed information on driving rules and other considerations.
The pick-up and drop-off process was very convenient, but the staff at the store had a poor attitude. They were very enthusiastic at first, but their attitude changed immediately after I declined their upgrade sales pitch.
When picking up the car, they noticed we had a lot of luggage and upgraded us to a larger vehicle at the same price. The car was brand new, easy to operate, and the service was excellent. Returning the car was a bit difficult to locate, and we ended up paying a £5 parking fee after spending 2 minutes in the airport parking lot. The deposit was refunded the next day, which was very good.
Backstab! Renting the car was fine, returning it was also fine. But after returning home, my credit card was suddenly charged £60 for cleaning. Actually, thanks to my children growing up, this was the cleanest car we've rented abroad so far, just needed a little cleaning. Complaining to the rental company got me a vague photo. If they found it dirty, they should have pointed it out and charged the cleaning fee at that time, I wouldn't have argued. They should provide proof when making accusations. It feels like small car rental companies lure you in and backstab you later.
The store at the airport is quite large with many staff. Although it's a bit far from Heathrow T4, there is a free shuttle service available.
