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.
  • 25% of our users found rental cars in Sugar Land for C$ 46 or less
  • Book your rental car in Sugar Land at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Mini rental cars in Sugar Land are around 1% cheaper than other car types, on average

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

For the record! There was no rental as when we arrived at be they informed me that they had NO cars. Very frustrating to drive 35 minutes to be told that news. Indicated that because of Covid they had been dealing with a shortage. Started to leave but then walked back in and asked if there are other locations nearby. Answered yes, Rosenberg and Missouri City/Stafford. Asked if he would call and his response was that they all have the same problem. Compounded my frustration because the young man had zero customer service training and very poor communication skills! Again, I did not rent a car and now second guess renting again with Kayak going forward. Will head back to Hertz Gold!

Mar. 2021

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

The office was full of people waiting to rent a car to drive for Uber. They were all angry and yelling at me and the person working the desk because they didn’t know I had a private rental and they thought I was skipping the line ahead of them. It was a really scary environment and they were really out of control. The car I was given smelled like smoke so bad that it made me feel sick. I tried to air it out but it stayed. I tried to contact Hertz about the car and could not get a person to pick up the phone at the Sugarland location.

Customer service was very poor. I was not informed with anticipation that the car I had reserved was not available and the attendant rudely told me she only had an SUV vehicle available and that I had to pay more than double the price of my reserved vehicle. I will never go there ever again.
