Surrounded by lush parks and forests, Reno is a unique oasis that provides plenty of opportunity for outdoor exploration. Deciding to rent a car during your time in Reno will be a worthwhile decision, opening up the ability to discover the beauty of Lake Tahoe, the Sierra Nevada mountain range, Truckee River, and the valleys and desert of Nevada. By hiring a car and maximizing your time in town you will be able to explore the amazing natural landscapes and still check out the funky and eclectic nightlife of downtown Reno.
Reno-Tahoe International Airport is located only 3 miles from the downtown district, meaning you can pick up your rental car and be in the city in no time at all. Survey the best list of rental options available at Reno-Tahoe International Airport using KAYAK and organize your rental before you arrive. Major global rental companies such as Alamo, Avis, Hertz, Thrifty, and Budget have counters located within the baggage claim area of the airport terminal.
If you plan on traveling to the many mountainous areas surrounding the valley that Reno sits in, keep in mind that the weather at high elevations is unpredictable and thus the road conditions can change quickly. Ensure that you regularly check local weather reports and take extra precautions when driving on snow or ice.
Rush hour is a relative piece of cake in Reno compared to other major cities across the United States. While there is increased congestion on the roads between 7 am and 9 am and between 5 pm and 6:30 pm, most of the city is reachable within 45 minutes -- even if you are coming from the opposite side of town!
Like all other cities with a significant population in the USA, Reno usually experiences rush hour traffic. In this lovely city, rush hour traffic is normally between 6:00 am and 10:00 am and 4:00 pm and 7:00 pm During these hours, you'll find it challenging to move from one part of the city to another. However, movement isn't impossible. According to locals, if you avoid the town's Spaghetti Bowl area during rush hour, you'll move around just fine. To avoid getting caught in traffic, you should consider taking the city's minor roads to your preferred destination.
Reno-Tahoe International Airport is home to rental counters of nine different Reno cheap car rentals. The counters in the airport's baggage claim area belong to car rentals like National, Payless, Alamo, Hertz, Thrifty, Dollar, Avis, Enterprise, and Hertz. Hence, if you'd like to rent a car once you land at this airport, you'll be able to do so with utmost ease. Once you complete and seal your rental agreement with your Reno car rental of choice, an employee of your car rental will take you to your car. Given that rental cars at this airport usually are parked at the parking garages just outside the baggage claim area, you'll only need to walk a short distance to get to your preferred Reno car rental.
With a rental from one of the cheap car rentals in Reno, there are several destinations you can quickly drive to. One of these destinations, Lake Tahoe, is located 68 miles (109km) from Reno. To reach this destination, you'll drive for 1h 30min. Lamoille Canyon is another destination just outside of Reno. To reach this canyon, you'll only drive for 20min, as it is 12 miles (19km) away from Reno. Napa Valley, home to astounding wineries, is another destination you can drive to with the car you rent from your preferred cheap car rental in Reno. To cover the 187 miles (300km) that separate these two destinations, you'll drive for about 5h.

First, I received my email with a confirmation number reserving my vehicle, a Pacifica minivan. Got to the counter and the employee stated my reservation was canceled. They had no more large vehicles to rent. I did not cancel my reservation. I was in a panic as I had three children to haul around plus adults. The employee was kind enough to go in the back to speak with someone and they found me an SUV. I feel I could have been given a break on my rate as the reservation some how was canceled.

The staff from the nice guy at the counter, the girl in the booth and the friendly return guy were all fantastic. The car itself had dings all over it. It was missing paint on the driver's door. It didn't have any floor mats. Carpet was ripped or slashed on the passenger side and messed up on the driver's side as well. We were running late for a dinner appointment when we arrived or I would've never drove off in that vehicle. On the plus side, it did get us from point A to point B.

Terrible experience. Will never use them again. We reserved a vehicle 6 months prior to travel. When we got there they only had a minivan for us.

My drop off was at Circus Circus in Las Vegas. I was not given the exact location to where I would be park in the car and dropping off keys.. there is no indication that it should be dropped off in the second garage on the fifth level. I wasted about an hour and a half trying to figure it out, I called Avis customer service, and the guy was clueless, he suggested I just park it and leave the keys inside the car.

I wasn't able to pick up the car because it looked like they had run out. Stood in line for three hours and maybe 10 people in the main line up were given cars. It looked like they were giving cars as people brought them back since people would wait for up to 30 minutes with an agent before getting keys. Pretty brutal so I just left and borrowed a friends car thankfully but now its very difficult to get my money back...

The wait for the car was 30 minutes. There were three employees working at one point and one employee disappeared into the office never to be seen again. Keys to the car were given to me and we had to walk to the garage and find our car. The car was covered in pollen and dirt on the outside. Inside was okay. No walk through and I had to take pictures of various dings, scratches, and a crack in the windshield for my benefit if Avis tries to come at me for this damage.

4.0 Mediocre

Anonymous, Dec 2020

Pros:

Better mileage than expected

Cons:

Pick up: disaster. Despite having RESERVED a mini-van class car, there was none available when I arrived. What's the point of a reservation? Instead they "upgraded" me to a CRV, which has half the storage space. Extremely unhappy because I planned to move across the country in the larger car, not a tiny CRV.

Pros:

Everything with the exception of below.

Cons:

Only two counters open and had to wait 45 minutes just to get to a counter.

Cons:

I tried canceling this booking less than 24 hours after paying, due to the California wildfires. I was told I could cancel since it hadn’t been 24 hours yet, but weeks have gone by and not one worker is willing to help issue a refund...

I booked a reservation through Kayak for $93.50, but Hertz would not honor the price. They HAD the reservation, they simply wouldn't honor the price. The price they gave me was $166.13 and the person at the rental desk basically said "Take it or leave it". I had no choice but to take it since I had to be somewhere quickly

I reserved a car from Hertz through your site on August 10, for a pickup at RNO on Sept. 22. I prepaid a portion of the charge ($171.20), leaving a balance ($54.62) due at pickup. Instead, was charged $110.64 at the Hertz desk, and told my only recourse was to call their Customer Relations/Billing phone number to resolve the issue. That proved useless, as they would not honor the stated price on my contract. I believe that $56.02has been stolen from me, and I will never rent from Hertz again. Further, if Kayak is unable to get the overcharge reversed by Hertz, I will never use your service again, and I have been a loyal customer for over 20 years. The price quoted should be the price charged. Period.

Pros:

I can’t rate a company for which I never received a car from

Cons:

Everything. Starting with being present to provide the car in which I reserved instead of sending me on a wild goose chase to another company to have it fulfilled.

Rd, Mar 2021

Pros:

They didn’t have an employee at the counter. 50 people didn’t get their cars. Sent to Avis and Budget for cars, or to other vendors. They are involved in a bait and switch.

Cons:

Avoid them completely.
