Great service and price
Pros: Picked up from CDG and also dropped back when dropping the car off. Staff spoke English, which was very helpful, and had no trouble with the car.
Cons: The depot is a ten minute drive from CDG, so be sure to factor this in if catching a plane.

Great Service, Friendly Staff
Pros: We were given an upgrade on our reservation, so we used a fantastically comfortable car. The gas mileage was super, but the really great thing was the friendly, helpful, nice staff. Check in and return were easy and again, EVERYONE WAS SO NICE! Thank you Enterprise France.
Cons: I can't think of how this rental could have been better.

Experience poor and they are unresponsive to errors
Pros: The car itself
Cons: They have not fixed over charges they charged due to mileage overages on an unlimited mileage rental.
They haven't responded to fix it.
The pick up of the car was ridiculous, bad communication, giving me a car I didn't rent initially. I rented a mid-size SUV and they tried to give me a compact car, saying it was an SUV. Took over an hour just to pick car up as rental agent appeared to be incompetent.
In the end, they overcharged for for a day and mileage - and have since failed to respond to my multiple attempts to resolve the incorrect charges.

15 Oct 2018
Pros: The young woman who presented me the car was excellent in her warm manner, explanation and thoroughness. The young gentleman who received the car upon my return was equally through and gentile.
Cons: Was initially told they were out of cars and I would have had to wait a few hours or return the following day. I refused and they quickly “ found” an available car. Unfortunately, the rental desks at many of these agencies are the most challenging to deal with.

Great service
Pros: Enterprise took the time to explain how their policies worked in France regarding the initial deposit and eventual refund. In addition, they gave a great overview of the car the morning of our rental so there was no question where things like the spare tire, jack were. All in all, very good experience.
Cons: Nothing.

Great car, staff and deal (despite a rocky start)
Pros: it was great to have some training by the staff on my hybrid rental, which was not so easy to start. one of the staff also gave me his mobile, in case I had an issue with the rental later on. The car was in very good shape, and held up very well. Also, the staff was very supportive when I got a small bruise on the car from an angry driver a few minutes before sending back the car.
Cons: Agency was empty when I arrived. waited 20+ minutes as staff were out picking up cars. not a big deal, but that was a bit stressful.

Pros: Clean, new car and helpful staff in Paris. Very inexpensive.
Cons: I reserved a standard and was given a minivan, which is substantially harder to manage on tiny French alleys and streets. On returning the car the passcode for the garage did not work, there were no attendants at the lot, and the only remaining spaces were so small I needed to exit through the back.

All great but . . . . .
Pros: It was a smooth transaction and everything went well.

I will never rent from Budget again.
Cons: I was overcharged for my rental by about $70 for gas. I told Budget I did not want the "fuel up front" option when we rented the car, and was told I would not be charged for that. I returned the car with an almost full tank, expecting that I would be charged for the 1 or 2 litres necessary to fill up the tank. Instead I was charged 70 euros for the "fuel up front" option. I emailed the Station Manager, Julien Sigonney, at the Paris station in response to an email he sent me stating that if I had any concerns I should contact him directly instead of give a bad review. I emailed him immediately, asking for our final bill to see what I was charged for. It took him several days to get me a copy. Once I got a copy, I saw what I had been overcharged for and asked for a refund. It has not been two weeks and he has not responded. I have emailed twice more to get a response, and have received nothing. I will never rent from Budget again, and will make sure no one I know does either.

Should have learnt my lesson from my previous expe
Pros: when I returned the car 2 hours late, I argued and waiting for about an hour so they could 'not' charge me an extra day. that was nice.
Cons: Renting a car is such a pain, scam, and sadly sucks away the excitement of a short break before you even set off.
I booked four days car rental for $230 knowing I would get stung for some insurance.
Then I ended up getting a smaller car, waiting 2 hours for it, being charged extra because they didn't have my car, paying surcharges.. dropping off the car with a final bill of around $550 conveniently charged to my credit card, I walked out of Avis/Budget counter feeling pretty sore.
Onur
ps. i didn't even opt for the $40 a day full insurance

I was clearly not welcome
Pros: nil
Cons: the car was noisy and not fuel efficient. The staff was unwelcoming starting from the moment they realized I had booked from a broker in the US and was paying less than then French rentals. They took revenge by upselling me some insurance. I was not against it, but numbers really did not add up. It was not only more expensive, but also the EUR - USD fx rate did not make sense. I ended up paying double the amount I had initially booked. Also, there was a railway station tax which I also found out about, and when I challenged them again on this, they had no response other than a threat: "you know, we should cancel your booking because you are not a US resident but you booked through a US site". very nice...last but not least, I had to beg them to show me the car and bring me to it for a review. Initially, they did not want to come out of their cosy office. none in the office was very interested or concerned about me, and I was the only client...

Cons: Lyon staff provided same drop-off address in Paris as Budget website. In Paris, we brought the care to the drop-off address, staff yelled at us for not dropping off across the street from that address, told us we could not complete closing the reservation and they would get around to it after helping everyone else. Rude staff. Poor signage for location. Poor communication all around. Still haven't received any final information about our completed contract.

Total Rip Off
Pros: The car was acceptable
Cons: The Allianz insurance i paid for via Kayak is not honored by Budget, so i had to spend another 60 euro for their coverage. After duly returning the car with 7/8 + tank full, i had to pay 20 euros to 'fill the tank'. The clerk said i could avoid that fee by taking the car out of the garage where i had to park it, level -6 at the porte Maillot garage, and find a gas station, a good 45 min round trip operation. So i will take my business elsewhere.

Very dirty and smelly inside

Very disappointed in Hertz
Pros: The car worked and did not break down.
Cons: Pick up was terribly slow. We waited almost a half hour before we were even able to get to the counter. Then had to walk to a different location to pick up the car. On getting to the garage, the car they offered us had not even been cleaned and was filthy on both the outside and the inside. We then had to wait another half hour before they gave us another car.
Even though my invoice and bill were all in EUR, when I got my finall bill I noticed that, without my authorization, they had charged me in USD and charged me an extortionate conversion rate for the privilege. I used to have a high perception of Hertz but these sleazy tactics (which only amount to a couple of $ for them) make me want to put them into the same bucket as other sleazy operators such as Ryanair.

Cons: The dropoff in Paris was difficult. The rental office was closed, and we had to drop the car at a parking garage which was unmarked.

DIDNT HAVE CAR!! We could not get a vehicle!!!
Cons: This location looked very sketchy in a bad area of Paris! We walked inside and it was essentially a gas station with a Hertz sticker in the window! The gas station attendant didn’t speak any English and was very rude to us. He was dismissive and completely unhelpful when we gave him our booking confirmation paperwork he replied in a low muttered tone in French that there was no reservation for us and that his colleague would be back at 9 (thankfully there was a gas station customer there for us who could translate). He didn’t want to help us at all and just kept telling us we had to wait until 9 (one hour later). We got there when the location opened at 8am. Now, this was a business trip for me and we had an important meeting to get to and I can’t tell you the stress it caused not having help OR THE CAR! We had the confirmation, why wasn’t the car there? Or, why couldn’t we rent literally any other car?! We realized there was no Hertz representative on site and who knows how long it might have been had we waited. I honestly didn’t want my personal information or credit card being swiped there at this point. Thankfully there was an Avis location 8 minutes walk down the road that got us into a vehicle quickly! THANK YOU AVIS! I will never use kayak to book a rental car again, or Hertz for that matter! TERRIBLE. Shut this location down!!!!

Drop off on side street in unmarked underground garage
Pros: Everything fine until drop off
Cons: I drove all around the Gare du Nord in Paris for about two hours trying to find the drop location. My GPS did not work. Nobody spoke English and could help. Finally I used Google maps from the Avis and found the location, circled twice to explore an unmarked underground unattended garage. Finally saw some tiny signs on the ceiling. The search ate up all my time so I didn't get to top off the tank and got dinged for 1/2 tank of gas. Very exhausting and distraught when it was over. Ruined what until then was a great rental experience. The nature of the garage was not even mentioned on my rental agreement.
3.6 Mediocre

Even could not get a car
Pros: Of course, nothing.
We even could not get a car and a decent attitude.
Cons: Dear Sir/Madam,
Even though I have a confirmation number, she did not provide me a car.
I have tried to call her, but instead of answering me, she did not make any explanation and put me on hold. I have tried to call several times and she put me on hold every time. It was very rude.
I had a trip with my little brother which is planned weeks ago. At the end of the day, she ruined his dream. It is not acceptable.
If I do not get a decent apology, I am going to mention about this issue in other platforms as well.
No one has a such right that ruin a kid's dream and its company's reputation.
Kind regards,
Kenan Kaya

Cons: When we dropped if off in Paris, the drop off station was very sketchy in a below-ground parking lot and the employees didn't seem to know what to do with us. We also had to ask them to give us a receipt and confirm how much of our hold would be charged. It all felt very unprofessional and confusing.
4.8 Okay
17 Jul 2017
Cons: We were not given a receipt and told we didn't need one. The dropoff point did not look as professional as many of the other AVIS offices were were accustomed to.

Pros: My reservation in Paris was wrongly reported in the system to be picked up at Les Ullis. Luckily the Agency manager went out of his way to find an acceptable compromise with another car.
Cons: My reservation 44753552US4 for Premium - Mercedes-Benz C-Class was to be picked up at 184 Rue Du Faubourg Saint Martin, Paris, but was wrongly reported in the system to be picked up at Les Ullis i.e. over one hour and 100€ taxi fare!
In addition, a wrong phone number of the agency on the confirmation...
This is unacceptable: SHAME ON AVIS information system!

Top tips for renting a car in Paris
- Planning on picking up a hire car upon landing in Paris? For flights landing at Charles de Gaulle Airport, you will be able to find hire car desks in Terminals 1, 2ACD, 2E, 2F, and 2G. If your flight lands at Orly Airport instead, then the hire car agencies will be found in Terminal Ouest.
- Paris can be very difficult to navigate for drivers unfamiliar with the city; the large roundabouts and narrow one-way lanes are especially challenging. It is highly advised to stick to the outlying areas of the city if you are driving, as the main downtown areas can be quite congested and there is limited parking. However, one possible compromise is to park in an outer area and take public transportation into the central arrondissements (districts).
- As work typically starts around 9 a.m. in Paris, morning rush hour lasts a bit later there in comparison to cities in North America. In general, morning rush hour lasts from 7:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. and it is particularly bad for drivers heading into the city. Evening rush hour lasts from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. with outbound traffic leaving Paris experiencing the worst of it.
- Looking forward to visiting the Versailles Palace during your time in France? One great way to get there is to rent a car while you are vacationing in Paris. Versailles, Disneyland, and Fontainebleau are just some of the day trips that are easily reached via hire car from Paris.
- 25% of our users found rental cars in Paris for RM 195 or less
- Book your rental car in Paris at least 1 week before your trip in order to get a below-average price

Parking in Paris is scarce and can be difficult for those not used to big city parking. In general, streetside parking and underground parking lots are the main options available. Parking costs are significantly more expensive in the central arrondissements, so for those who don’t mind taking the subway, parking in the outlying arrondissements is a good option. Travelers should also note that parking is free in most areas of the city on Sundays and at night.
