KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Saint-Malo
- The advantages of utilising a car hire in Saint-Malo for your transport options are many. Although there is a variety of public transport available, having the luxury of your own car is a great comfort. You have easy access to tourist attractions and beaches, and can also get to remote destinations with fewer crowds. Besides saving time and stress waiting for buses, being able to plan your own itinerary in your own time is a major plus. Take a short trip out of Saint-Malo and visit the UNESCO World Heritage Site Mont-Saint-Michel, a medieval abbey perched on a rocky island. You can also go oyster tasting only a 30-minute drive in Cancale, a fishing village known for its seafood culinary delights.
- There is one main Saint-Malo car hire option at Pleurtuit Airport (DNR). When you arrive at the airport, you will find the Dollar Car hire counters right inside the Arrivals Terminal. Check-in and show your booking information and the staff will allocate you your car and direct you to the car park for pickup. You can also book at the counters, but for a wider choice of vehicle, pre-booking is the better option.
- Saint-Malo is a very popular tourist city, so although driving your car hire in Saint-Malo offers comfort and convenience, you should plan your city driving carefully. The town is famed for its ancient city walls, which surround the historical city centre of Intra-Muros, so you will need to navigate some narrow roads and limited parking spaces. There are a lot of one way systems, which you could get confused by, so pay attention to the road signs.
- Like any popular tourist city, driving your own car may bring up some parking and navigation issues. Parts of the city centre have pedestrian-only zones that prioritise feet over wheels, so you might encounter restricted roads and designated routes that you must pay attention to. Make sure to have a look at the inner city maps before you plan your outing, so you can plan your route in advance. Avoid peak hour traffic times, which are generally around 7:30 and 9:00 and 17:00 and 19:00.
- Book your rental car in Saint-Malo at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Economy rental cars in Saint-Malo are around 33% cheaper than other car types, on average

8.8 Very Good
Aug 2018
Pros:
Everything was very smooth. Overall, very few complaints -- certainly none with the car itself, and the pickup/dropoff was conveniently close to the train station.Cons:
I appear to have been slightly overcharged (by about $9), plus I have a pending charge on my account also associated with Hertz. I will have to follow up.Sixt

4.8 Mediocre
Mar 2018
Cons:
Signs pointing to where to park and leave the car were not very easy to spot and we drove around for 10 min trying to figure it out. Then, nobody was in the Avis office at the train station; rather we had to call a number posted on the door and were told to give the key to the Train Station manager, who it took us 30 min to find.National
