KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in The Hague
- Car hire in The Hague is an ideal opportunity to explore the third-largest city in the country and the seat of the government of The Netherlands. You can spend your time driving around the streets, exploring local museums, visiting St. James Church and other historical landmarks before driving out to nearby cities. Amsterdam is less than an hour away, as is Lisse, Leiden and Rotterdam. You can take control of your holiday and visit all of these places without trying to figure out the local transport schedule or paying high prices for local taxis.
- Car hire in The Hague is easy at the nearby airport, Rotterdam The Hague Airport (RTM). The car hire desks are located in Rotterdam Airportplein 60, in the arrivals hall. It's wise to book international companies like Avis, Budget or Europcar online through KAYAK and have them meet you at the airport with the vehicle. You'll also avoid any availability issues that way. Once you've filled out the paperwork, you'll receive the keys and be escorted to your The Hague car hire.
- Driving your car hire in The Hague is quite simple. There are plenty of working traffic lights and street signs directing you where you need to go. You'll need to pay attention to these and keep an eye out for other drivers. A big thing to look out for when driving in The Hague is cyclists. There are numerous cyclists, and you'll need to keep an eye on your blind spot and the bicycle lane to make sure you don't hit one of them. Trams and pedestrians are other another thing worth looking out for. Cars must give way to trams.
- Dutch drivers are accommodating and polite and the traffic tends to run smoothly, so there aren't many difficulties with driving in The Hague. When you're in the city, a big difficulty is the number of cyclists, who you'll be sharing the road with. This can slow down traffic a fair bit. On various roads, cars are considered guests and bicycles are the preferred mode of travel. Make sure to avoid the bus lane, which is there to optimise traffic flow and public transportation. It also accommodates trams, coaches and taxis on occasion. Remember to give way to vehicles in the bus lane.
- Book your rental car in The Hague at least 2 days before your trip in order to get a below-average price

The confirmation email describes that I should bring my creditcard and drivers licences. When I showed up without my passport that was a problem and I had to go back home to pick it up. Change the confirmation mail and include the passport!8.0 Very Good

Cons:
When I arrived at the Budget location in The Hague to pickup the car, I was told that I had to pay EUR145.62. My reservation email indicated that the amount was US$89.54. I explained to the gentleman who was in charge at the time to no avail. He only said that he could not help me and that I had to take this up with customer service. I was in a rush and paid under protest. I then called customer service to make a complaint and request a refund for the excess amount and the representative told me that I have to wait a couple of days for the reservation to appear in the system. This is completely unacceptable. I am very frustrated with this situation and demand that a refund be made to my credit card immediately.Sixt
