KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Newcastle upon Tyne

  • Newcastle Upon Tyne is considered a college town because it is home to numerous colleges and universities, as well as tons of students.

Providing both domestic and international flights, it offers an array of services for passengers, including shops, restaurants, and car hires.

Pros:

The lady at Newcastle was extremely helpful and very friendly. Although the Lexus was smaller than I expected, the vehicle itself was comfortable, extremely clean and made my journey very pleasant. The drop off was very straight forward, although there wasn't any staff when I dropped the vehicle off in Aberdeen, and left the keys at the drop off letter box. Overall, I'd recommend Enterprise for hiring a vehicle in the future.

Cons:

The vehicle category I had rented was the full size SUV, which states a Volvo XC60 or similar. The Lexus is much smaller than an XC60 and not a full size SUV. I think the vehicle categories should be described much more clearer.

Difficulty at pick-up. Deposit (300 Pounds) paid to QEEQ. was not valid and had to pay additional 250 Pounds. Return Damage report indicated scratch on front bumper, which I pointed out to the Agent during pick-up inspection. He responded "It's Superficial" and ignored it.

Excellent service from start to finish. Absolutely loved the car (Peugeot 3008) it was a dream to drive, super clean and even made us want to buy one! Really reasonable price for a 3 day hire, so much so, we added an extra day! Super easy collection and drop off. Highly recommended and would definitely use Budget again.

I made a reservation one month before my trip. On the day of my reservation I showed up to pick up my car and the two gentlemen working informed me that they did not have a car for me to use. Zero effort was made to provide an explanation or a solution. Over and over again they simply said they did not have enough cars and there was nothing they could do. So I had to make a different reservation with another company last minute. In the end I never got a car from Hertz. And they did not provide me with a refund. Will never book with hertz again.
