KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Katy

  • Picking up a cheap car rental in Katy will enable you to explore the area at your own pace, whether traveling there for business or pleasure. Instead of spending money on rideshares or planning which bus or rail connections you'll need to make, enjoy the flexibility and independence of having a car and go sightseeing whenever you like. Even better, take a road trip to explore what Katy's surroundings have to offer.
  • In and around Katy, you will most likely find yourself driving on toll roads such as the Sam Houston Tollway, the Chisolm Trail Parkway and the HOT (High Occupancy Toll) lanes on US 290 and US 59. When you are considering Katy car rentals, give thought to buying the company’s toll program. Because the car you will be driving is registered to the car rental company, using your own methods to pay an electronic toll often do not work, causing you to have to eventually pay the toll as well as a late fee and a penalty from the rental car company.
  • If you opt for a car rental in Katy, on arrival at Houston International Airport, the car rental facility is a short five-minute drive from the airport's terminals. Passengers can take shuttles from the airport to the car rental center. These shuttles leave Terminals A, B, C, and E's baggage claim area every 5min. In addition, you can find blue and white buses with the "Rental Car Shuttle" signage at exits designated with "Rental Car" signage.
  • The William P. Hobby Airport (HOU), located 40 minutes southeast of Katy, provides a convenient place for reserving and collecting cheap car rentals in Katy. Rental car companies are located in the immediate vicinity of the airport and have service counters in the baggage claim area. Because HOU is a smaller airport, these agencies are relatively easy to access and tend to be open for much longer hours than agencies located in the city. Some Katy car rentals at HOU include Hertz, Enterprise, Budget, Avis, and more.
  • The feeder roads, which replace the standard access roads present nationwide, are a characteristic specific to Katy. Those looking forward for a car rental in Katy should be keen before entering or leaving a highway to be sure you're in the correct lane since the feeder roads cross numerous lanes of traffic. In addition, you'll need a keen eye and a reliable navigation system to ensure you're traveling in the direction of your destination due to regular road maintenance and construction. Driving there can be difficult if you're not used to Katy’s complex layout.
  • In cheap car rentals in Katy, you can not only explore the parks, museums, and rich railroad history of the city, but you can venture out to other renowned cities. Houston is only a 30-minute drive to the east, Austin is about a 2-hour drive to the northwest, and Galveston and Galveston Bay are just about 1 h 15 min to the southeast. Katy car rentals make it possible for you to explore some of the most famous cities in one of America's most famous states.
  • Make sure to avoid peak or rush hours when you may choose the time of day to drive. The busiest times in Houston are between 8 and 9 a.m. and between 5 pm and 6 pm. Some of the roadways in Katy that are always busy and congested during rush hours include North Eldridge Parkways to the Sam Houston Tollway, Highway 6 from 1-10 to the Westpark Tollway and North Fry Road. If you must drive in inclement weather, leave plenty of room between your vehicle and the vehicle in front of you. Before going for a Katy car rental, ensure the wiper blades and tire treads are in good condition.

FAQs about renting a car in Katy

  • Which car rental companies are at Hobby airport (HOU)?

    Car rental companies onsite at Hobby airport include Easirent, Zoom Rent A Car, Ace, Payless, Sixt, Priceless and Budget.

  • Which car rental companies will pick you up at Hobby airport (HOU)?

    Take a look at our extensive car rental location map to find the best rental cars near you.

  • How much does a Small car rental cost in Katy?

    A Small car rental in Katy costs C$ 37 per day, on average.

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Katy?

    If you are considering car rental in Katy, there are various kinds to consider based on your preference. An SUV or van is an excellent option depending on how many passengers you need to carry. Visitors who plan to stay in the city center may be better served with a compact car that fits easily into parking spaces, while tourists who want to explore the nearby nature parks and reserves may choose an SUV.

  • How old do I have to be in order to rent a car in Katy?

    To rent most cheap car rentals in Katy, you need to be at least 21 years old with a valid driver’s license in good standing. Additional drivers must also meet the same qualifications. If you are under 25, most Katy car rentals will charge you a daily fee for being a young driver.

  • What's the speed limit in Katy?

    All roads in Katy have a default speed limit that is based on the type of roadway. Ensure you check for speed limit signs on the road. The allowed speed limit for city driving in residential zones is 30 mph. Speed limits are 25 mph on the Katy Mills Circle ring road that winds around the mall. The maximum allowed speed on the highway is 70 mph. Always pay attention to the posted speed limits and obey them, especially at crossroads where traffic speed cameras can be present. Constantly adjust your speed to the circumstances on the road when it's winter, and slow down if necessary.

  • Can I pick up my car rental in Katy and drop it off in another city?

    Yes. Many cheap car rentals in Katy will allow you to drop your rental vehicle off at different locations throughout Texas and the country, including Dallas, Houston, New York, and Seattle. Cheap car rentals in Katy that offer this option include Avis, Hertz, and Budget. However, different companies have different rules and restrictions and allow you to drop off in different places. So, make sure you confirm all the particulars of your car rental pick-up and drop-off needs when you make your reservation.

  • Where are the best places to park in Katy?

    It's not hard to locate a parking lot in Katy. Parking, however, is typically permitted for up to two hours. At Katy Mills, parking is provided for free. Katy Grand is also a good option for parking and charges around $2 per day. This parking features amenities such as parking lighting and covered parking and operates 24/7. Additionally, there are many parks and rides in and around the city, including Grand Parkway Park & Ride, Addicks Park & Ride, and Kingsland Park & Ride. Another standard parking is Katy Station Parking Garage which offers park and rides services. It has two elevators and parking spaces for METRO park and rides. You can leave your car at one of these parks & rides and travel into the city using public transportation.

Pros:

NO !

Cons:

I made the reservation for a car , I was assured it was there , and if I had'nt called to make a time change for pickup I would not have known there was no vehicle available . I passed on two sure oppurtunitys and that's what I got ! I was also told that someone would call me back and that never happened ! I drove to Enterprise location the next morning and got zero results . I then called Enterprise Corporate office and they wanted to make me a reservation for the following Monday ! The lady there assured me a district manager would contact me and that never happened ! Todaybis 3/10/21 and I still have not heard a word from Enterprise !!!To Enterprise : I will walk before I rent from you again !
