"I was a little hesistant before booking as Hola literally quoted me half of what the car rental company was giving me which made me a little suspicious but I went to Avis at LAS airport and the entire process was smooth. I have already booked two more trips through Hola.
Thank you :)"

"Trust these reviews and put your trust in Hola Car Rentals. Not only , in my experience, did they provide very good quotes on my rental car from Chicago O'Hare (AVIS), indeed it was all inclusive with no unexpected surprises when I collected the car. For some reason, I incurred a charge from AVIS (Tank of gas), which was sorted and all, but Hola rental car were quick to support and help arrange my refund. Brilliant company and I would 100% use them again"

"The third party rental car company charged us after returning the car for additional services that we hadn't agreed to. Hola's service team went above and beyond to help us get a refund for these charges.
It’s exemplary for a car rental broker to stand up for its customers like this. We’re grateful and will always book through Hola in the future. Not just because they have very affordable deals and great value for money, but above all because they’re there for their customers! Benchmark!"

Daniel Woods
"Hola Car rentals can’t be faulted. The pricing for an Avis car rental was significantly lower than from the actual Avis rental site. At first I was honestly nervous about booking, but not issue could be found in the entire process.
If booking through Hola, ensure you take the confirmation paperwork with you to provide to the rental car company. Avis’ system didn’t register the additional driver but the confirmation email was used and they added the extra driver saving hundreds.
Toll refunds are swift and instructions can be given using the WhatsApp AI chat bot.
Collection location was Avis LAX
Will be using Hola again"

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."

"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."

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."

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"
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"
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."
Jason Bishop
"Excellent all round . Great price , great service and the insurance cover etc ticks every box . Customer service for a few odd questions were great and very quick response on what’s app . Highly recommended and will definitely use Hola again .. Thankyou.
Ps … Car was great too 👌🏼👌🏼"
תמיר מורוביץ
"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"
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."
carl buckley (BMW R Nine T Scrambler)
"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"
About renting a car at New Jersey Airport
Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) is the primary gateway for most visitors, and all rental brands there operate from a Consolidated Rental Car Center reached via AirTrain from Terminals B and C or a pedestrian bridge from Terminal A — budget 15 to 30 minutes beyond baggage claim to complete the process. Travelers arriving at Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) for southern New Jersey destinations face a longer transfer: a shuttle from Zone 2 outside baggage claim runs to an off-site rental facility, and the full process typically takes 30 to 45 minutes. Atlantic City International Airport (ACY) is the most direct option for the Jersey Shore, with counters inside the terminal and vehicles steps away. On the road, New Jersey's major highways — the New Jersey Turnpike, Garden State Parkway, and Atlantic City Expressway — rely on E-ZPass, an electronic toll system now largely cashless. Rental companies offer an unlimited toll package typically running US$11–25 per day; without it, each day a toll registers adds a per-use administrative fee on top of the actual toll cost. Fuel averages around US$3.62 per gallon statewide, with highway service stations on the Turnpike and Parkway running higher. Budget for a deposit hold of US$200–500 on a credit card in the primary driver's name — debit cards are not accepted. Drivers under 25 may face a young driver surcharge, and visitors whose license uses a non-Latin script should carry an International Driving Permit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where do I go after landing at Newark Airport (EWR) to pick up a rental car?
After you collect your luggage from the baggage claim area, look for overhead signs directing you to the AirTrain. This automated monorail system is your primary transport to the rental car facilities. Most major rental car companies at Newark Airport are conveniently located in a central facility at the P3 station. The AirTrain is free to use for travel between terminals, parking lots, and the rental car center, making the process smooth and efficient.
How do I get from my terminal at EWR to the rental car area using the airport shuttle or AirTrain?
The most efficient way to reach the rental car area is by using the AirTrain Newark. After exiting your terminal, follow the signs for the AirTrain, which has stations at Terminals A, B, and C. Board the train and take it to the P3 station stop. The consolidated rental car center, which houses the counters for most agencies, is located right at this station, making it a simple walk from the AirTrain platform to pick up your vehicle.
Is the rental car return at EWR in the same place as pick-up, or is it a different location?
Yes, the rental car return at Newark Airport is located in the same consolidated facility where you picked up your vehicle. As you drive back toward the airport, you will see prominent signs for “Rental Car Return.” It is important to follow these specific signs rather than the signs for your departure terminal. This will guide you directly to the multi-level garage where you can drop off the car and then take the AirTrain back to your terminal.
How early should I return my rental car at EWR for a domestic flight versus an international flight?
For a domestic flight, it is wise to return your rental car at least two and a half to three hours before your scheduled departure. For international flights, plan to arrive at the rental car return three and a half to four hours in advance. This buffer accounts for the time needed to complete the vehicle return process, take the AirTrain from the P3 station to your terminal, check your luggage, and clear through security, which can have long lines.
What’s the easiest way to reach Manhattan from EWR by rental car without getting stuck in tunnel traffic?
Avoiding tunnel traffic entirely can be challenging, but using a real-time GPS app is your best strategy for finding the least congested route. The Holland Tunnel and Lincoln Tunnel are the most direct options, but they are prone to heavy delays. An alternative to consider is taking the NJ Turnpike north to the George Washington Bridge, especially if your destination is in Upper Manhattan. Always check traffic conditions right before you leave the airport to make the most informed decision.
If I’m driving to Midtown Manhattan from EWR, which river crossing usually makes the most sense for my route?
For destinations in Midtown Manhattan, such as Times Square or the Theater District, the Lincoln Tunnel is the most direct and logical river crossing. It connects directly from New Jersey into the heart of Midtown. The Holland Tunnel is better suited for reaching Downtown Manhattan neighborhoods like SoHo or the Financial District. The George Washington Bridge is the best choice for reaching Upper Manhattan, Washington Heights, or the Bronx.
What should I expect when driving out of EWR during weekday rush hour?
Driving out of Newark Airport during weekday rush hour, typically from 7-10 AM and 4-7 PM, requires patience and planning. You should anticipate heavy, slow-moving traffic on all major arteries, including the New Jersey Turnpike (I-95), I-78, and Routes 1 & 9. Travel times can easily double during these periods, so it's crucial to build significant extra time into your schedule. Using a GPS with live traffic updates is essential for navigating the congestion.
Are there common wrong turns or confusing exits when leaving Newark Airport in a rental car?
The highway interchanges surrounding EWR are complex, with many merging lanes and quick splits for major routes like the NJ Turnpike, I-78, and US 1/9. A common point of confusion is ensuring you are in the correct lane for your intended highway well in advance. Rely heavily on your GPS navigation and pay close attention to overhead signs. Last-minute lane changes can be difficult and unsafe due to the high volume of traffic.
Which navigation address should I use for the EWR rental car center so GPS doesn’t take me to the wrong terminal?
To ensure your GPS directs you correctly, it's best to search for “Newark Airport Rental Car Center” or “EWR P3 Station” rather than just the airport's main address. The rental car facility is located at the P3 parking station, which is a distinct location from the passenger terminals. Using this more specific destination in your navigation app will guide you to the correct entrance for rental car pick-up or return, helping you avoid circling the terminal loops.
If my flight lands late at night at EWR, what should I plan for when picking up a rental car?
When arriving on a late-night flight, it's crucial to verify the operating hours of your specific rental car company in advance, as some counters may close overnight. While the airport itself will be quieter, the rental car center may have reduced staffing, which could potentially lead to a longer wait time. The AirTrain runs 24/7, so getting to the rental center is not an issue. Just be sure to have your reservation details handy for a smoother process.
What are the best first driving stops near EWR to grab food or essentials before heading to my hotel?
Just a short drive from the airport, you'll find numerous convenient options for food and supplies. The area along US Routes 1 & 9 in Elizabeth features many fast-food chains, diners, and large retail centers like The Mills at Jersey Gardens. For a wider variety of local cuisine, the Ironbound district in Newark is famous for its Portuguese and Brazilian restaurants. These nearby spots allow you to easily stock up on essentials before continuing your journey.
How do tolls work when driving from Newark Airport to New York City, and where are the toll points?
When driving from EWR into New York City, you will encounter tolls at all bridge and tunnel crossings, such as the Holland Tunnel, Lincoln Tunnel, and George Washington Bridge. These tolls are collected electronically via systems like E-ZPass, and cash lanes are increasingly rare. Most rental vehicles are equipped with a toll transponder, and the rental company will have a program for how these charges are handled. It's a good idea to ask about their specific tolling policy at the rental counter.
What’s the most straightforward drive from EWR to the Jersey Shore for a weekend trip?
The most direct and popular route to most Jersey Shore destinations is the Garden State Parkway (GSP) South. From the airport, you can easily access the GSP by taking a short drive on I-78 West. Once on the Parkway, it's a relatively straight shot down the coast. During the summer, especially on Fridays and Sundays, expect heavy traffic, so it's best to travel during off-peak hours if possible.
How long does it usually take to drive from EWR to Atlantic City depending on the day and time?
Under ideal conditions with light traffic, the drive from Newark Airport to Atlantic City takes approximately two hours. The route primarily follows the Garden State Parkway South. However, this travel time can increase significantly, sometimes to three hours or more, during peak periods. The heaviest traffic typically occurs on summer weekends, especially Friday afternoons heading south and Sunday afternoons heading north, so plan your departure time accordingly.
What’s the easiest route from EWR to Princeton for a campus visit or business meeting?
The most straightforward route to Princeton is to take the New Jersey Turnpike (I-95) South from the airport. You will travel for about 35-40 miles before taking the exit for Route 18 North toward US Route 1 South, which leads you into the Princeton area. The drive is almost entirely on major highways and is well-signed. Outside of peak rush hour, the journey typically takes under an hour.
