22 Feb 2017
Cons: Staff member @ this location was hardly interested in any sort of customer service. Was told that showing up later than the scheduled pick up time meant the car would not be ready for some reason. Waited @ location for 30-45 min for car (with metal rubbing on metal each time passenger door was opened) to return. In the meantime, there were multiple other cars that were not being utilized for any reason. First time I've had an experience like this with Hertz and hopefully the last.

Problem after problem
Pros: The vehicle itself was fine. Worked well for my trip.
Cons: When I arrived I was asked to provide the card I booked with. I've booked dozens of rentals and have never had this happen. They were able to "cancel" my first reservation and started a new one while I was there. This delayed my trip. Not to mention I still haven't received my refund from the original rental. On top of that they were disorganized and didn't mark the fuel down correctly and then charged me. I had to spend almost an hour on the phone with a rep to sort this out as well as try to get my refund from the original rental. It was really a pain and I've never experienced this with any other rental company.

Pros: The price was good. The service was mediocre
Cons: I had reserved the car and paid in advance for the 6 days I would need the car. It was suppose to be available at noon. However, when I arrived at 1:00 the car was not available. The men at the counter told me that because I wasn't there at 12:00 they had given the car to someone else. They had a car that was coming in and told me I could have that one, and it would be about 15 minutes. However we waited almost an hour before I was able to get the car and leave. There was nothing in the paper work that indicated I needed to pick it up at exactly noon. Also, I returned the car 4 hours early!

Pros: The vehicle was nice and great condition.
Cons: Pestering about purchasing insurance. We get it, most people rented a car or two or three.
The hours of the location did not allow for an after-hours drop in which was inconvenient.
Check in check out process could be quicker.
The vehicle was dirty and you can tell they did not take a look inside as I found wrappers and spare change.

Poor customer service
Pros: Car was clean
Cons: Tank not full when received at northright scottsdale location. About an 1/8 tank shy of full but had just pulled out of parking lot and didn't want to go back because woman rental agent had been abrupt, rude, never smiled; poor customer service. Also my reserved rate of $174.25 was not honored. I was charged approx. $65 more for the base rate plus an additional $200 hold.

Pros: Good car, great value for the amount of time that used the SUV.
Cons: Chris Frieh the agency operator was finally able to get a SUV for me. But he could never commit when there would be an SUV available. In fact, I took an SUV that was returned with 3/4 tank of gas and not cleaned because I needed to leave right at noon.

Not quite was we ordered but a great deal
Pros: Staff in Scottsdale were super nice and the price was great.
Cons: Pick-up spot had a very limited selection of vehicles. Upgrade was ridiculously priced - meant to deter us from taking it because it was a one way rental.

- KAYAK was the only platform where I could choose a Pick-Up car
Cons: - Extra charge for ever little thing, so I payed almost the double of the KAYAK offer.
- Tank was not full but I didn't realize at pickup so I can't proof. At other companies I could always rely on this.

Rental that never happened
Pros: Nothing - did not rent car
Cons: Flight was late arriving from SLC. Called office to try to arrange either an after-hour drop-off or pickup at another Hertz office. Person who answered phone at rental office could barely speak English. We tried for quite some time to communicate our needs, but were not successful. Unfortunately, I do not speak Spanish. The renal was not waiting for us when we arrived.

Top tips for renting a car in Scottsdale
- Whether you’re bouncing between the many golf courses Scottsdale has to offer, venturing into Phoenix situated southwest of the city, or exploring Tonto National Forest, by renting a car you can do all of the above conveniently within your own timeframe. The area is best explored with a car, so enjoy the many great things Scottsdale has to offer by renting a car.
- Travelers who arrive in Scottsdale at the Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport will be pleased to know that there are several hire car agencies on the grounds. Start your journey free of stress by renting a car directly at the airport and be in Scottsdale in about twenty minutes via the N Scottsdale Road. The hire car center is located in its own building and there is a shuttle operating between the terminals and the hire center. The bus stops are outside the terminals, past the baggage claim area.
- Especially during summer, monsoons can occur regularly in Scottsdale and the whole of Arizona, and they bring heavy rain showers, strong winds, and dust storms – all of which can severely impair visibility. Should you drive into such a monsoon, try to find a safe place to park the car and wait until it has abated. Also do not drive into flooded areas, usually marked with a warning sign, or the car can lose traction and you will need to be towed out of the flooded area.
- Rush hours in Scottsdale occur at 6-9 am and 5-7 pm, where traffic, specifically between Scottsdale and Phoenix, can increase dramatically. Try to avoid driving through the city during these times, and especially when heading to the airport, allow plenty of extra time (at least two hours), so you don’t miss your flight.
- Book your rental car in Scottsdale at least 5 weeks before your trip in order to get a below-average price
FAQs about renting a car in Scottsdale
What is the best rental car company in Scottsdale?
Based on ratings and reviews from real users on KAYAK, the best car rental companies in Scottsdale are Enterprise (8.5, 12867 reviews), Avis (7.6, 2258 reviews), and Sixt (7.5, 1083 reviews).
How can I find car rentals near me in Scottsdale?
Take a look at our extensive car rental location map to find the best rental cars near you.
What type of car is recommended for driving in Scottsdale?
It is always easier to maneuver through an unknown city with a smaller car instead of a large and bulky one. If possible, rent a compact car to be able to navigate through traffic, find parking, and also pay a lower weekly rate in most cases. When planning to drive to the national forest or explore the natural surroundings, opt for a 4-wheel-drive car for the best traction.
What's the speed limit in Scottsdale?
It is important to always check posted speed limit signs and follow their listed speed limit. Generally, speed limits are 25 mph in residential areas, 65 mph on divided rural highways, and up to 75 mph on freeways and interstates. On the I-10 into Phoenix there is a Safety Corridor, which are lanes where accidents are more likely to occur and law enforcement is very strict (you could already get fined for going one or two miles over the speed limit).
How are gas prices in Scottsdale?
The average price for a gallon of petrol in Scottsdale lies at approximately $2.70, but there are cheaper petrol stations like Costco or Mobil which can be up to $0.10 less per gallon. Travelers who are planning trips out of Scottsdale towards the many national and regional parks should refill the tank beforehand.
Where are the best places to park in Scottsdale?
There are free parking opportunities available in Scottsdale, for example in the 1st Ave Lot or Pepperwood Lot, but keep in mind that parking is restricted to two hours. In the Old Town, there are also plenty of garages and on-street parking spots available, but during the day on-street parking may be hard to find, so opting for the 3rd Ave parking garage, for instance, may be a better option.
