KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Sugar Land

  • Sugar Land’s public transportation services are not extensive, so if you want convenience and speed, it’s a good idea to look for car rentals in Sugar Land. While the city of Sugar Land itself has much to explore, it’s also only about a 20min drive away from downtown Houston. It’s also possible to take day trips to other cities if you have your own rental car.
  • Sugar Land is within reach of two airports: the George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH) and the William P. Hobby Airport (HOU), both located in Houston. Sugar Land car rentals are easy to find at both of these airports. IAH has a variety of car rental companies onsite, including Hertz, Enterprise, and Avis. You can reach the rental car center at IAH by taking the airport shuttle. The shuttle leaves every 5min from outside the baggage claim and terminals A, B, C, and E. The rental car center is open 24/7. There are also several companies offering pick-up services to IAH. HOU, on the other hand, has rental car companies at the counters near the baggage claim. There is a free shuttle service that will then take you to the rental car facilities departing from Curb Zone 1 outside the baggage claim.
  • Driving in Sugar Land is fairly easy and stress-free. However, there are some rules you should know about before you hit the road. Sugar Land makes use of H.O.V. lanes marked by double white lines. These double white lines should not be crossed, and the H.O.V. lanes are only approved for use by vehicles with two or more passengers, motorcycles, and buses. Another rule that’s important for car rentals in Sugar Land is that the operation of cell phones and other electronic devices while driving is not allowed unless the device is in hands-free mode or if there’s an emergency. So, be sure to put the phone down while driving.
  • Sugar Land is accessible by several major highways. These include US 59 South, Highway 6, and Highway 90. As a result of these major roads and the city’s proximity to downtown Houston, rush hour in Sugar Land can get rough. The morning rush hour typically occurs between about 7am and 7:30am. The evening rush hour is usually around 5pm to 6pm. If you’re looking to take a day trip to Houston or go elsewhere out of Sugar Land, we recommend avoiding driving on the highways during these times.
  • Book your rental car in Sugar Land at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Intermediate rental cars in Sugar Land are around 67% cheaper than other car types, on average

Pros:

Needed to rent a pickup and no pickups were available.

Kayak interface should reflect what vehicles are actually available. If i hadn't called, I would have shown up and found zero vehicle availability.

Pros:

Staff was super rude and unhelpful. Gave me a car that smelled of smoke which could not be smelled because they used the odor extractor but after an hour the stink was noticeable. I requested another car they did not hve any cars in my size so instead of giving me another car they wanted to charge me more for an SUV. Did not have the decency to apologize for the inconvenience. It has been a amonth since this happened and they still ahve not refunded me so I had to go through my credit card to dispute the charge.

Cons:

Need completely new staff. Disrespectful, Unwilling to help, and the manager is rude. They will nickel and dime you for everything. Did not even refund me for a car returned within an hour of pickup because it had a cigarette smell
