HERTZ CAR RENTAL REVIEWS IN IRELAND

The pickup process was relatively simple, but the car models available were not sufficient.

We were three adults and two children traveling from Dublin to Tralee to visit friends. Since we had a lot of luggage and there aren't many options for different drop-off locations in Ireland, we rented a BMW 5 Series hoping for a slightly larger trunk. However, we were given a BMW 3 Series instead. When we brought this up at the counter, the staff gave a haughty response, claiming it was the same series. After we objected, they then said the original rental was a manual 5 Series and the provided car was an automatic 3 Series, so it was fine (but in reality, our order was for an automatic 5 Series). Seeing that I was about to call the rental company in China, they offered a small discount as there were no other cars of the same grade available, which wasted over an hour of our time. We had to place a small carry-on suitcase in the cabin since it couldn't fit in the trunk, forcing one of the children to put their legs on the suitcase during the trip. The management and service level are quite disappointing!

The car I received had 90,000 kilometers on it. It was too old and didn't live up to the Hertz brand. I chose Hertz because their cars are usually new, typically with only about 10,000 kilometers. Additionally, the vehicle's features were poor, and the manual sunroof was extremely inconvenient. They also required me to pay a 2000 Euro deposit.

Everything was good, there was no any problem, we got a brand new car.

We couldn’t get the car. It was the most terrible car rental experience ever Initially booked car didn’t have floor mats and my foot kept slipping so I requested to change the vehicle. After waiting for over 30 minutes we were finally upgrades to a bmw5 series . We then had to wait for the car to be washed. After 15 more minutes the guy came to us and said he cannot let us this car as someone else already booked it. So we walked away without having a car at all ! It was a complete waste of time.

Such a smooth process. I've rented cars before and it's taken between 40 to 60 minutes for the whole process, with Hertz I was done in about 15 minutes. No hard selling of extra insurance or upgrades. Would definitely recommend

Picking up the car was fine once location was found. Car was returned to a different location in the airport and there was no member of staff to check it back in. It has taken longer to release my funds held on my card. The excess is very high €2500 and the cost of daily insurance is a rip off, thankfully I have insurance to cover this.

Booking was easy and confirmation received very quickly.

Like: Car was very economical and ideal for our situation.
Dislike: Perhaps having airconditioning would have made a big difference with experiencing such warm weather during our stay .

Rented a car in the city center of Ireland and returned it at the airport. Using a credit card incurs a handling fee. They will promote insurance on-site, so make sure to ask clearly. The staff's service attitude was excellent and they patiently answered all my questions.

The Hertz representative at the drop off tried to rip us off. He tried to charge us €120 because there was a little sand in the car. We had two children in the car one was sick the other sleeping, he woke our sleeping child. We were forced to drive to a garage to hover the car and had to do the cleaning in the pouring rain. I believe the hertz guy threatened us with a huge bill so we would do his job for him so he wouldn’t have to get wet in the rain. He was a disgrace. He also left the door unsecured so when we drove away our child’s door was not secure.

It was great. They were really helpful

The counter staff were great. We got the car that we had rented but it was not top quality. It wasn't clean, water bottle left behind not vacuumed. The front fender was bolted together, scuff marks everywhere. However, we were able to travel around Ireland with no issues.

Car was fine.

I did not see the requirements for the added insurance on the website. When I got to the counter, there was no option other than to purchase it.

A bout 25 minutes yes

Like: They were quick, knowledgeable and understanding of my needs.
