KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Spokane

  • If it lies in your interest to visit as many sites as possible in Spokane, consider renting a vehicle. With a rental car for one of the reputable and reliable car rentals in the city, you’ll be able to drive from one site to another faster than if you used public transport. For example, Spokane Falls and Riverside State Park- Bowl and Pitcher are some of the top attraction sites in Spokane City. Covering the approximately 10 miles that connects the two places by a rental car will take about 17min, while it may take up to an hour by public means.
  • Just like most US cities, Spokane experiences massive traffic during rush hours. Traffic tends to build up from around 2.00 pm to 8.30 pm all through the week. If you get stuck in this traffic, you’ll be unable to visit all your intended destinations on time. Therefore, it is advisable to visit your destinations before or after the mentioned rush hour. Monroe Street Bridge is known to have heavy traffic when crossing the river, while other available river crossing options that do not have traffic exist. Consider using such routes with minimal or no traffic at all.
  • Enterprise is one of the most reliable car rentals found in Spokane. It has about 4 locations around the city. So, if you happen to be in Spokane, you’ll have an easier time reaching one of its strategically placed locations. It has its locations at 1426 E Francis Avenue, 2727 N Division Street, 41 W 3rd Avenue, and 9000 W Airport Dr. All these offices remain open seven days a week from around 8 am to 6 pm on weekdays, 9 am to 5 pm on Saturdays, and 12 am to 1 am on Sundays. Also, the company has an array of vehicles you can choose from.
  • The charming city of Spokane is easy to navigate and has light traffic, which means a car is the quickest, most efficient and comfortable way to explore the area on your own schedule. A car will also allow you to discover other destinations outside the city, such as Spokane Valley, which is only 10 miles east of the city and is home to more than 70 lakes and rivers. If you're visiting in the winter, make the most of the ski season by heading to the city's five ski resorts, which are all located within driving reach.
  • All the major car rental agencies, including Alamo, Enterprise, and Hertz, can be found at Spokane International Airport (GEG), which is approximately 5 miles west of Spokane's city center. The car rental desks are located in the Ground Transportation Center so, if you're arriving by air, just follow the ground transportation signs after landing. Most agencies are open from early in the morning (6 to 7 a.m.) until late in the evening (11 p.m. to 12 a.m.).
  • Even though the city experiences a great flow of tourists throughout the year, driving downtown is relatively easy compared to other big cities in the country. Traffic rules in the city are pretty straightforward, but remember that all exits are on the right-hand side of the road. Winter driving may be the trickiest part, so make sure you have good snow tires and that you keep plenty of distance between your vehicle and others'.
  • Traffic in Spokane generally flows nicely all throughout the day, but driving during rush hour can add extra time to your travels. Avoid driving into the city or to the airport between 6 and 9 a.m., or out of the city towards the residential areas between 4 and 7 p.m. Traffic congestion only gets worse when it snows in the winter, as well as during road construction season, with one of the busiest commutes being the stretch from downtown east on I-90 to the valley exits.
  • 25% of our users found rental cars in Spokane for C$ 63 or less
  • Book your rental car in Spokane at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Off-airport rental car locations in Spokane are around 19% cheaper than airport locations on average
  • Compact rental cars in Spokane are around 24% cheaper than other car types, on average

When renting a model that you are not familiar with, I think it would be good to have just a little cheat sheet that indicates where are the fuel compartment lever is, for example. And perhaps a few other key features to ensure a safer and more comfortable driving experience. Overall, my experience was good. However, I left two things in the drivers compartment that were easily spotted, ( obviously no by stupid me) and no one tried to get my attention to let me know, so now I have to go online and replace some things.

KAYAK

Pros:

Alamo representative Debbie at the Spokane airport was very friendly and helpful. She assisted me with changing my reserved vehicle type. The vehicle was wonderful, so comfortable and easy to drive.

Cons:

I changed my requested vehicle type at the counter, which cost an additional $134.00. This was about $50.00 higher than if I had made the reservation that day, and even higher than other rental companies at the airport. Because I would have had a $100.00 fee to cancel my original reservation, I choose just to pay for the higher than average upgrade fee. Taught me a lesson to only reserve no fee cancellation vehicles.

Pros:

The reservation, pick up and drop off all went without a hitch. Easy and hassle free. The staff was ready for me and made everything easy. Debbie was great to work with!! I showed up earlier than my reservation and they got me in a car early and extended my rental by one day without any issues. Staff was great!! Overall experience was great!! Would defintely rent from Alamo again.

Cons:

I drove a 2017 Dodge Charger with 2000 miles. Overall the car was great, but the USB ports would work off and on. This was frustrating and was hard when I needed to charge my phone. Also the main screen froze once and I had to pull over and turn the car off and back on. When it froze I was unable to control the volume, A/C etc. This must be a glitch that Dodge needs to address.

Pros:

Nice, new car. Quick service downtown.

Cons:

The Spokane airport location wouldn’t rent me a car and I had to Uber downtown to pick up. They gave me a car with Canadian plates and a metric speedometer, so it was difficult to judge speed. Rental was very expensive and they nickel and dime you for insurance coverage. Even the basic, minimal plan is a gouge.

KAYAK

Pros:

When their system showed a completely different price than what I was given on Kayak (three times more), they were able to fix the issue. Although it was very inconvenient for me to wait for them to fix this, and to go to their services counter to resolve it, it did get resolved. So thanks for that.

Cons:

The vehicle smelled like tobacco smoke. I was not able to pick up the vehicle in Canada and drop it off in the USA, so I had to pick it up in the USA, and do a lot more driving. They told me the vehicle had a full tank, and when I got to the car it only had a quarter tank. Pricing problems too.
