Book Hertz hire cars in Portland

• What is the best place to pick up my car rental in Portland?

  There is no doubt that if you are flying to Portland and traveling through the Portland International Airport (PDX), you are going to find that this is a very convenient place to pick up your car rental. The airport has a car rental location that is just adjacent to the southern end of the terminal building and is just a short walk from the terminal. For travelers already in the downtown Portland area who want to rent a car without heading back to the airport, there is a Hertz location on SW. Pine Street that is very convenient for these travelers.

They wanted to make us take an electric car unless we paid more money even though another person there took the electric car so they charged us more money to take a car. That was the only one available. The car was empty no gas. And smelled like marijuana.Reviewed 2 Aug 2026

The customer service at the Marriott in downtown Portland was poor. It was a long wait to pick up our rental, and nobody was there or answered the phone when dropping off our rental. It was difficult to pick up/drop off downtown, as it was in a parking garage in a different building from where you check in for the rental. The car wasn’t especially clean and was not full of gas.Reviewed 23 Jun 2026
