Holger Pfarr
"By far cheaper than all rental car offers."
Sharon Radford
"Quick and easy"
Bill Harshbarger
"I really liked the reservation screen for pickup times...side by side let's you easy match pick-up drop off.
The vehicles were the best price (discounted prices for European travelers in the US at thus writing), otherwise rental car prices are rather high these days.
Insurance is about peace of mind. Hola is over the top covering many of those extras the agent wants you to buy.
And toll coverage up to 5%. Super. Without human attendants anymore, it's complicated in the Bay Area and particularly expensive in Miami (!) Auto companies see it as an opportunity to sell you lots of Toll coverage.
Finally, what I did not notice was, "not knowing what I was renting" which is often noticed just before you press 'book'. The question did not enter my mind, that's a good thing.
Their AI agent, perfectly better. Very good advice.
And I did have the need to cancel and rebook. With the app, effective and bug free. One refund was credited in a hour. Another may take a few days, but will post. Also the app will display prices in the currency you select.
Looking forward to booking with Hola again"

"This is not the first time we’ve rented cars through Hola, and each time we’re absolutely satisfied! Their service is excellent — always available, providing immediate responses, quickly solving any issues with kindness, and handling everything directly with the rental companies when needed.
Even when a refund was required, they took care of it fully without any hassle. The personal, reliable, and professional approach makes all the difference.
A fantastic experience every time, and I’ll definitely keep renting through them and highly recommend them to everyone"

"Searching for two weeks car hire in Florida. Hola were very competitive against the group I wanted to book, the website was easy to use and confirmation received immediately"
Dwight Thompson
"The experience was excellent, fast and easy with the least effort required to chose a car. From past experience the counter experience was favourable at Budget Miami Airport with no issues. This was the first time an agent at a rental desk did not try to sell me additional insurance or toll pass.
My only concerns for this booking was the price gap was too high for standard cars compared to the basic cars."
Steve Hornby
"Very easy to book
Very easy to pay
And the best deal I could find by quite a long way
Added price of mind was the 4.8 stars on trust pilot with 3000+ ratings"
mandy hughes
"Unfortunately I had to cancel my booking with Hola Car Rentals for personal reasons. I was assisted by the Sales Manager Karen to do this. After completing the cancellation efficiently and promptly she went above and beyond to help me with several additional questions I had. Based on my experience I would highly recommend Hola Car Rentals Customer service and would definitely use them again. Their rental prices were very competitive too."
Natalia Vazquez Sotelo
"I highly recommend Hola Car for their excellent service and great price. We arrived many hours late and were worried, but they answered all my questions immediately, even though it was a Sunday. Thank you so much for your help!"
Chris Burnham
"great prices easy to book definitely use again"
constanza cecchi
"The app is great and reliable. Although they try to add extra insurance when you arrive to pick up the car, you just have to insist and say no. Otherwise, everything is fine."
Alejandro Arenal

Thanks"

"Good car and price"
Wheeling and dealing Uk
"Cheap and easy to use covers all insurances etc seems to have been made easy"
차Mihye
"As a Korean, I used the app to rent a car in California. The Dollar Rent-a-Car employee at the San Francisco branch was rude and insisted I purchase additional insurance ($25 per day) because the insurance I purchased through the Hola app was inadequate. However, Hola insisted that the full coverage policy applied and helped me cancel the additional insurance I had purchased at the Dollar Rent-a-Car location. I'm satisfied with Hola's customer service, but I think the Dollar Rent-a-Car employee's practice of selling additional insurance needs to be addressed."

"The WhatsApp service is excellent and personalized. When you arrive at the rental agency, they try to sell you a bunch of extras that are already included, but when you show them you booked through Hola, they don't offer anything else; they just give you the vehicle and you don't pay anything. Renting a car through them is a guarantee."

"It was seamless and I’m yet to see how it goes when I present my hola booking at the airport."
Annanii Garcia
"The rental process was very simple. We got Hertz; the pickup is on Sunday, let's see how it is. It has very good reviews."
Keith Semple
"Wow! My first booking with Hola didn’t just meet expectations — they absolutely exceeded them in every possible way. So much so, that I made another rental booking immediately. I’m not usually someone who takes the time to write reviews, but this experience was so exceptional that I felt compelled to share it.
At first, I thought I had secured a great price — but when I carefully reviewed the list of inclusions, I was genuinely blown away. In fact, it almost seemed too good to be true. I found myself double- and triple-checking my bookings, convinced there must have been some sort of system error. But no — everything was exactly as promised, and more - with NO extra cost.
What truly stood out was the reaction from others. When I shared the pricing and inclusions with the Avis desk at the airport, hotel staff, as well as family and friends, they were equally astonished. Several even asked for your details on the spot — which says everything about the incredible value and service you provide.
One thing worthy of note. Avis offered upgrades which I refused on the grounds that it might change the underlying agreement and result in added costs - be careful of adding extras at the point of collection. Regardless, the vehicles reserved were excellent.
You have now become my absolute first choice — my go-to destination for rentals without hesitation. Experiences like this are rare, and you’ve set a new benchmark for excellence.
Please keep up the outstanding work — you’ve gained a loyal customer for life."
José Heriberto Moreno López
"Company with very good prices. Easy and quick booking process."
Frequently Asked Questions
If I land at Cleveland Hopkins late at night, what does the car hire pickup flow look like from baggage reclaim to getting on the road?
After collecting your luggage at Cleveland Hopkins (CLE), follow signs for Ground Transportation and Rental Cars. The airport has a consolidated car hire facility a short shuttle ride from the main terminal. You will board a dedicated shuttle bus that runs frequently, even late at night, and takes you directly to that facility. There you complete the paperwork at your hire company's desk, collect the keys and locate your vehicle in the adjacent car park, allowing a streamlined transition from flight to road.
What’s the easiest way to drive from Cleveland Hopkins Airport to downtown Cleveland if I want to avoid confusing interchanges on my first visit?
The most straightforward route from the airport to downtown Cleveland is to take I-71 North. This interstate provides a direct route with well-signposted exits for the city centre. To reduce complexity, programme your satnav for a major landmark like Progressive Field or the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. As you approach the city, keep to the middle or left lanes to avoid the early sequence of exits, then follow signs for downtown exits such as East 9th Street, which will put you in the heart of the city.
Where can I do a quick grocery run right after picking up my hire car near Cleveland airport without getting stuck in heavy traffic?
After leaving the Cleveland Hopkins hire facility, a convenient option for groceries is the nearby suburb of North Olmsted. Head west on I-480 for a few miles and you’ll find several major supermarkets just off the highway exits. This route lets you avoid the denser traffic heading east towards downtown Cleveland immediately after arrival. Shopping in that area tends to be less congested and offers a low-stress way to stock up on essentials before continuing to your final destination.
I’m staying in Ohio City—what should I know about narrow streets, one-ways, and parking when arriving with a hire car?
Driving a hire car in Ohio City requires some extra attention because of its historic layout. The neighbourhood has many narrow residential streets and a significant number are one-way, so watch the signage carefully. Parking is typically a mix of metered on-street spaces and a few public car parks, which can be competitive, especially in the evenings and at weekends. Before you arrive, it’s a good idea to check with your hotel or host about any dedicated parking options they may offer to simplify your experience.
How challenging is it to park near the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame during midday, and what’s the least stressful approach for drivers?
Parking near the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame at midday can be busy, but manageable with a good plan. The least stressful option is to use the large covered car park connected to the Great Lakes Science Center, which is right next to the Hall of Fame. This provides convenient protected parking just a short walk away. There are several surface lots in the North Coast Harbor area as well, but arriving a little before or after the lunch peak increases your chances of finding a space without circulating.
What should I expect when driving to a Cleveland Guardians game—best arrival timing, road closures, and where hires can be parked nearby?
When driving to a Cleveland Guardians game, plan to arrive at least an hour before the first pitch to allow for traffic and parking. Streets immediately around Progressive Field, such as Ontario and Carnegie, often have rolling closures and heavy pedestrian flows. The most convenient parking for your hire car is the Gateway East Garage, which is connected to the ballpark. Numerous private lots are also available in surrounding blocks, but arriving early gives you the best choice and a more relaxed walk to the stadium.
If I’m visiting the Cleveland Museum of Art and University Circle, what’s the simplest route and parking plan for someone unfamiliar with the area?
For first-time visitors to the Cleveland Museum of Art, the most straightforward approach is to set your satnav directly for the museum’s attached car park. This underground garage is accessible from Wade Oval Drive and removes the need to search for street parking in the busy University Circle area. The entrance is clearly signed, and from the car park you have direct, indoor access to the museum. This allows you to park once and comfortably explore the museum and nearby attractions on foot.
What’s the drive like between downtown Cleveland and the Cedar Point area, and what’s a good stop plan if I’m travelling with children?
The drive from Cleveland to the Cedar Point area in Sandusky typically takes about an hour and is mostly straightforward highway driving on Route 2 West. The route runs along the Lake Erie shoreline and offers pleasant views. For a child-friendly stop, consider Vermilion, which has a charming small-town feel and a public beach at Main Street Beach for a quick break. Another option is the African Safari Wildlife Park in Port Clinton, a short detour before Sandusky.
For a day trip from Cleveland to Cuyahoga Valley National Park, which entrances are easiest for first-time visitors to reach by car?
A good introduction to Cuyahoga Valley National Park from Cleveland is the Canal Exploration Center entrance. It’s conveniently located just off I-77 and has a large car park, visitor services and access to the flat, scenic Ohio & Erie Canal Towpath Trail. Another accessible entrance for first-timers is the Boston Mill Visitor Centre, which is also well signed from the motorway. Both locations serve as great hubs from which to plan your day and get oriented in the park.
How early do I need to arrive to reliably park for popular Cuyahoga Valley trails like Brandywine Falls or Ledges, especially on weekends?
To secure a parking space at popular Cuyahoga Valley National Park trailheads like Brandywine Falls and the Ledges, arriving early is essential, particularly at weekends. For the best experience, aim to be at the car parks before 10:00 on a Saturday or Sunday. After that time, especially in good weather, the lots fill up quickly and you may have to wait for a space. During the week parking is generally less competitive, but an early start is still a good strategy to enjoy the trails with fewer people.
What’s the most straightforward way to drive from Cleveland to the Lake Erie Islands ferry area, and where do travellers typically leave their cars?
The most direct drive from Cleveland to the Lake Erie Islands ferry docks is via Route 2 West, heading towards Port Clinton and Catawba Island. The route is well signposted as you get closer to the ferries. As vehicles are generally not needed on the islands, travellers typically leave their hire cars in large, secure long-stay car parks operated by the ferry companies on the mainland. These lots are located right at or very near the ferry terminals, making the transition from car to boat straightforward.
If I’m planning a Put-in-Bay day trip, what timing questions should I think through so I’m not rushed getting back to Cleveland?
When planning a day trip to Put-in-Bay, check the ferry timetable in advance for the last boat returning to the mainland. Allow around 60–90 minutes for the drive back to Cleveland from the ferry dock, plus potential traffic. To avoid feeling rushed, aim to catch a ferry that departs the island at least two to three hours before you absolutely need to be back in the city. Remember that weekends are much busier, so allow extra time for parking and boarding the ferry on your outbound journey.
How tricky is the drive from Cleveland to Hocking Hills for a long weekend, and what’s a realistic break schedule along the way?
The drive from Cleveland to Hocking Hills State Park takes roughly three hours and is not particularly tricky, as it mainly uses major routes like I-71 South and then US-33 East. For a comfortable journey, plan one main rest stop around the halfway point. Areas around Mansfield or Alum Creek State Park north of Columbus are convenient places to stop, stretch your legs and grab a snack. This schedule lets you arrive at the park feeling refreshed and ready to explore.
What should I know about driving in Cleveland winter weather—lake-effect snow, bridge icing, and visibility—if I’m not used to it?
If you’re unfamiliar with Cleveland winters, be prepared for lake-effect snow, which can bring sudden, intense squalls with rapidly reduced visibility. Slow down, increase your following distance and avoid sudden manoeuvres. Be extra cautious on bridges, overpasses and exit ramps, as they tend to freeze before other road surfaces. Keep your headlights on for visibility and check the local weather forecast before you set off; these are essential safety habits when driving in a hire car during winter.
In summer, are there any Cleveland driving conditions that surprise visitors, like construction seasons or sudden lake fog near the shoreline?
In summer, visitors are often surprised by the prevalence of roadworks. Orange cones are a common sight on motorways and city streets, so it’s wise to build extra time into your travel plans for lane closures or diversions. Additionally, when driving along shoreline roads such as the Memorial Shoreway, sudden dense fog can roll in from Lake Erie, drastically reducing visibility. If you encounter this, slow down and use your dipped headlights.
