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
"Hola is amazing, has everything you need.
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."

Frequently Asked Questions
Which pickup location is this for Payless in Saint Louis — Lambert Airport (STL) or an off-airport neighbourhood office?
This information specifically refers to the Payless Car Rental location at Saint Louis Lambert International Airport (STL). Collecting your vehicle directly at the airport is designed for maximum convenience, allowing you to move from your flight to the road with ease. On arrival, follow the airport signage to the consolidated "Rental Car Center" where you will find the service desk. This centralised facility streamlines the process for travellers, keeping everything in one accessible place without the need for off-site shuttles.
If I land at STL late at night, what’s the simplest way to find the Payless counter and get to the car without wandering the airport?
Finding the rental car area at Saint Louis Lambert International Airport is straightforward, even late at night. After you collect your baggage, look for and follow the overhead signs for "Rental Car Center" or "Ground Transportation." These signs are prominently displayed throughout both terminals to guide you. The rental car counters are consolidated in a dedicated facility, so you won't have to search different parts of the airport. Well-lit walkways and clear signage make the process efficient and easy to manage after a long flight.
How long should I budget from stepping off my flight at STL to actually driving away in my Payless rental?
Timing varies with flight arrivals and passenger volume, but a good general estimate is to allow between 45 and 75 minutes from deplaning to driving away. This covers the time to walk to baggage claim, collect your luggage and then proceed to the Rental Car Center. The check-in process at the desk and vehicle retrieval are typically efficient. Planning for this window helps ensure a relaxed start to your trip without having to rush to your first destination.
What’s the easiest route out of Lambert Airport to downtown Saint Louis if I’m trying to avoid confusing interchanges?
For the most direct and least confusing route from STL to downtown Saint Louis, take Interstate 70 (I-70) east. The airport has clear signage directing you onto the interstate from the main exit roads. Stay on I-70 East for roughly 15 miles and it will lead you straight towards the downtown area and landmarks like the Gateway Arch. This route avoids most of the complex interchanges found on other highways, making it ideal for first-time visitors.
If my hotel is near the Gateway Arch, where do people usually park a rental car overnight without constantly moving it?
When staying downtown near the Gateway Arch, the most reliable option for overnight parking is typically your hotel's dedicated parking. Most downtown hotels offer either self-parking in an attached garage or valet services for a daily fee, providing a secure and convenient solution. Alternatively, there are numerous public parking garages in the area that offer overnight rates. It’s advisable to check with your hotel in advance to understand their specific parking arrangements and recommendations.
What’s it like driving around downtown Saint Louis for a first-time visitor — one-way streets, lane changes, or tricky turns?
Driving in downtown Saint Louis is manageable for a first-time visitor but requires your full attention. The city grid includes many one-way streets, so it’s essential to watch for signage and trust your GPS. During business hours and events you can expect moderate traffic and the need for timely lane changes, especially when approaching motorway on-ramps. The key is to plan your route ahead, allow a few extra minutes, and remain aware of pedestrians and traffic signals.
Where are the most convenient places to stop right after pickup to set up navigation, connect phones, and organise luggage?
Immediately after leaving the airport rental facility you’ll find several convenient spots to get organised before joining the main motorway. The airport provides a cell phone lot which is a perfect, safe place to pull over and set up your navigation, connect your phone to the car’s Bluetooth and adjust your mirrors. Alternatively there are several petrol stations and small shopping plazas within a mile or two of the airport exits along main roads like Natural Bridge Road. These locations offer ample parking to sort luggage and get comfortable for the drive ahead.
If I’m staying in The Hill or Central West End, what should I expect for street parking and tight residential streets with a rental car?
In historic neighbourhoods like The Hill and the Central West End, be prepared for tighter driving conditions and competitive street parking. Streets are often narrower than in modern suburbs and many are lined with parked cars, requiring careful manoeuvring. While on-street parking exists, it can be limited, especially in the evenings and at weekends. Check for posted parking restrictions or permit requirements and be prepared to park a block or two away during peak times.
How difficult is it to drive between Missouri and Illinois during a Saint Louis trip, especially with the Mississippi River bridges?
Crossing the Mississippi between Missouri and Illinois is a routine part of driving in the Saint Louis area and is generally straightforward. Major bridges like the Poplar Street Bridge (I-64/I-55) and the Stan Musial Veterans Memorial Bridge (I-70) are modern interstate structures built for high traffic volumes. While they can get congested in rush hour, they are well signed and easy to navigate with a GPS. Be mindful of lane changes as you approach the bridges, since several main highways converge in this area.
Which bridge into Illinois is usually easiest for visitors who aren’t familiar with Saint Louis highway exits?
For visitors unfamiliar with the area, the Stan Musial Veterans Memorial Bridge, carrying I-70, is often the simplest and most straightforward option for crossing into Illinois. It was designed to relieve congestion from the more complex Poplar Street Bridge interchange and usually offers a more direct flow of traffic. The approaches and exits are generally less confusing for drivers new to the city’s highway system. Using this bridge can simplify navigation and reduce the stress of last-minute lane changes.
If I’m planning to visit the Saint Louis Zoo and Forest Park, where do I actually park, and how early do lots fill on weekends?
Forest Park offers extensive free parking, but finding a spot near a major attraction like the Saint Louis Zoo at weekends requires planning. The Zoo has its own dedicated paid parking lots, one on the north side and one on the south, which are the most convenient options. On busy weekends, especially in good weather, these lots can fill by mid-morning. Arriving before 10:00 is a good strategy to secure a space in the official lots and avoid a long walk from more distant street parking within the park.
What’s the best way to handle parking for the Missouri Botanical Garden — are there lots, street options, or traffic pinch points nearby?
The Missouri Botanical Garden is well prepared to handle visitors arriving by car, making parking a relatively simple part of your visit. The Garden has a large, free car park located on-site, a short walk from the main entrance. On particularly busy days, such as special events or fine weekends, overflow parking is available nearby. The surrounding streets are mostly residential, so relying on the official car parks is your best and most courteous option.
How should I plan a rental-car day around the Gateway Arch and the riverfront if some roads are closed for events?
When planning a visit to the Gateway Arch, check the Arch’s official website or local news for any road closures due to events, particularly at weekends. The most effective strategy is to park once and explore on foot. There are numerous parking garages downtown just a few blocks west of the Arch grounds. Securing a spot in one of these garages for the day helps you avoid the hassle of navigating closures and allows easy walking access to the Arch, the riverfront and nearby attractions such as the Old Courthouse.
If I’m going to a Cardinals game at Busch Stadium, what’s the least stressful plan for getting there and leaving afterward by car?
For a low-stress trip to a Cardinals game, arrive early and park in a garage slightly further from Busch Stadium. Garages five or six blocks away often have less traffic and are easier to exit after the game. Pre-purchasing a parking pass online for a specific garage can also remove the stress of searching for a space. After the game, exercising a little patience or enjoying a post-game snack at a nearby restaurant can help you avoid the immediate traffic surge as crowds disperse.
What should I know about driving to an event at Enterprise Center, especially during rush hour?
Driving to an event at Enterprise Center during rush hour requires strategic planning. The arena is downtown where weekday evening traffic can be heavy, so allow at least 30–45 minutes of extra travel time. Major motorways like I-64 will be congested, so consider using city streets such as Market or Chestnut for the final approach. Pre-booking your parking in a nearby garage is highly recommended as it guarantees a spot and prevents circling in heavy traffic looking for an open lot.
