Hertz - Honolulu International Airport Information, Car Rental Instructions & Policies

Like: good condition of car
Dislike: location of car return

Customer service was superb. Great staff and no hassle service

The car had no charging ports for phone.

Can always rely on Hertz to give you brand new barely driven cars!

upsold on a bigger car but it was a good recommendation due to our party size. could have done a better deal considering this was our second consecutive rental with them.

Me hicieron un upgrade de auto gratis.

Mucha cola en los mostradores para recogida,y poco personal atendiendo(solo 2 personas). Mucha seriedad como compañia.Atención perfecta,tanto en mostrador de recogida como en devolución.

受け取りに時間がかかり過ぎる。 ゴールドメンバー受付もあとで気づいたが、長蛇の列。 スタッフが限られている、年末は集中したからなど理由にならない。デジタルで効率化できる方法はいくらでもある。

良かった

スタッフの数が少なく，日本語も全く通じないので時間がかかりすぎた。車は古く両サイドミラーが汚くて見にくいし、バックモニターも途中から映らなくなった。燃料を満タンにしたが帰りの空港までの走行で少し減った為か、後日100ドル請求された。 今後Hertzは利用しないだろう。

After arriving at Honolulu International Airport, Hertz's counter was the only one without any staff, just a phone. Following the instructions, I called and was told to take a shuttle bus to the Hertz location. Other companies at least had staff at their counters. Exiting the terminal, crossing the road, and waiting for the Hertz shuttle, I boarded the shuttle which was crowded with people and luggage. Upon arrival at the pickup location, there were two sections: one outdoor section without air conditioning for Gold Card members with two staff, and an indoor air-conditioned section with 4-5 staff. I first went to the Gold Card section, but after providing my name, they told me my reservation was on the list but insisted I needed to provide my Gold Card number to proceed, otherwise, I had to go to the non-Gold Card section. This seemed very rigid and unreasonable. In the hot weather, I didn't want to waste time finding my Gold Card number, so I proceeded to the non-Gold Card section. The staff there warmly provided me with a Porsche Cayenne, offering me a choice between gray and white, both with only 500-700 miles on them. This felt like a lucky break, but then they asked for two credit cards for copies, explained three types of insurance I hadn't purchased, and required my passport and driver's license copies. This was much more complicated than Alamo. After my repeated questions, the staff finally showed me a printed rental agreement stating the rental was $99 per day additional. I became angry, having already paid in full through the rental website. After clarifying, she admitted the extra charge. This wasted nearly an hour of our limited daytime in Oahu, misleading us significantly. Despite eventually getting a Chevrolet SUV with 3300 miles, my experience was infuriating. Hertz is expensive with deceptive service, low value, highly frustrating. Never renting from Hertz again.

The prices were expensive, the Asian staff were quite slow, but the car condition was fine.

Great attitude, simple procedures, very quick return process

Poor

Average

I chose a child seat, but when I got to the rental company, they said there was no child seat for me.

Service was fine, they tried to sell me insurance initially, language barrier but eventually resolved smoothly.

Too many formalities, constantly suggesting you upgrade for an additional fee, excessive insurance options

Waited in line for nearly an hour

????

Quite good

They kept recommending different car models

The car broke down for three hours, called Hertz, no response after three hours. Later, a passerby helped to start the car, drove it back to the airport, and the manager-level staff at the rental company showed no apology for our experience. They did not provide a sufficient professional attitude when things went wrong. If you want to ruin your vacation, use this terrible company.

The staff at the car rental company are very persuasive in pushing unnecessary insurance.

I picked up the car from the rental company very late, close to closing time. Because I had booked everything through Zuzuche, I thought I could follow the booking exactly at Hertz. However, the staff first asked me to upgrade the car for an additional cost, suggesting an upgrade from my original Corolla booking to an Infiniti. When I refused, they said there were no Corollas available. I said any car of the same class would be fine, and the staff reluctantly agreed. The staff handed me a receipt without asking any questions. I asked if the only additional charge I needed to pay was for the baby seat (as stated on Zuzuche). They confirmed this, and I left without checking the receipt. Hertz staff did not prompt me to inspect the car, but to avoid issues later, I recorded a video of the vehicle, especially the areas with dents and scratches, before returning to the staff. They said it was fine, but if I insisted, I needed to fill out a vehicle condition form, marking the problem areas and specific issues. After completing the form, they kept the first copy and gave me the other two. When I got home and checked the receipt, I found two unexpected charges. Hertz staff had added two insurance items without my consent, increasing the cost. I contacted Zuzuche's online support immediately. They said similar issues had occurred before and advised me to visit another Hertz location the next day to cancel the insurance fees. The next morning, I went to a nearby Hertz location, but they said it wasn't possible as the car was rented at the airport. Changing the contract at another location would require a $70 inter-location fee to be paid to the airport branch. They suggested I return to the airport rental office, but the day’s insurance cost could not be waived. Given the distance to the airport, I decided to let it go. A few days later, I complained at the Hertz airport location during the car return. The sales manager attended to me personally and listened to my feedback about Hertz’s service quality. He canceled the insurance charges, which was a pleasant surprise and showed commendable service from the American staff.

Very good

Had to wait a long time

The line was quite long, it's a popular tourist destination and there were not enough employees.

Excellent

They gave us an Infiniti Q80, saying it was the same price, but we found that the hotel parking lot had height restrictions that posed a collision risk. We had to return to the store the next day to exchange the car, and they finally gave us a Ford Kuga (overseas version).

The wait time for picking up the car was quite long.

Satisfied

Excellent service

When it was my turn to pick up the car, the staff had already left for the day. They didn't care about the customers still in line. I had to go to the garage to get the car myself without any inspection. The car was quite old, with 60,000 kilometers on it.

Very satisfied
