Budapest Ferenc Liszt Intl Airport car rental reviews and directory
Extremely poor experience. I have been warned that the company will attempt to overcharge for damages that were not caused by me and that are/or minor scratches that they have no intention repairing and are simply require a re-buffing. Scratches that other companies -in my experience renting in multiple countries and agencies- would not record as they fall under generally accepted standards. I was recommended by friends to do a walk-around and video-record the condition of the car in great detail. Unfortunately I didn’t do that as I found no significant damages. When I picked up the car, there was no one available to check the car’s condition and when I dropped it off the agents said there is no need for him checking as he believed me there were no issues to report. Next day I received and invoice already charged to my card for damages I didn’t cause. Next invoice for rental with multiple VAT that are not applicable to non-EU residents and were not disclosed at the time of pickup. I would never go back to this company in Hungary. Other countries maybe, but would avoid doing business with them in Hungary.
Vero Professional service and reasonable price. Fast collection of the car. The upgrade to a more luxurious car was appreciated. Will go to Herz again next time I need to hire a car.

The car and the pickup process were fine, but the issue was that I was given two options of extra payment and they were both very expensive. The first one was an extra 30 euros for returning the car, paying the highway fee at the gas station (potentially more complicated and expensive) and a potential fine for a not spotted cleaned the car at the returning and the second one was an extra insurance (almost 3 times the rental I've already paid). Not ok

The pick up was ok. The car had a problem besides it was filthy. The biggest problem the car would not start when I stopped and tried to restart it. Hence they refused to fill with petrol and then budget charged my card $185 to fill the car. A Toyota Yaris Rip off watch out
