Where is the National car rental counter at Manchester-Boston Regional Airport in New Hampshire?
The National car rental location in New Hampshire is at Manchester-Boston Regional Airport (MHT), located at 1 Airport Rd, Manchester, NH 03103. This is the only confirmed National location in the state.
At MHT, National offers its Emerald Aisle service, which allows eligible members to bypass the counter and select their vehicle directly from the aisle. For standard pickups, follow the car rental signage inside the terminal to reach the National counter.
Counter hours at this New Hampshire location are 08:00 to 23:59 daily, with extended availability from 00:00 to 01:00 on select days (Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday), making it one of the more flexible rental counters at the airport.
Does National have any downtown or off-airport locations in New Hampshire?
No, National does not have any confirmed off-airport or downtown locations in New Hampshire. The only officially listed National location in the state is at Manchester-Boston Regional Airport (MHT) in Manchester.
While some third-party sites mention possible locations in Nashua or Concord, these are not verified by National's official listings. If you need a National rental in New Hampshire, plan to pick up and return your vehicle at the Manchester airport location at 1 Airport Rd, Manchester, NH 03103.
If you are arriving at a different point in New Hampshire, such as near Portsmouth, note that National does not have a confirmed presence there. You may need to arrange transportation to MHT or consider whether another Hola Car Rentals partner brand with broader New Hampshire coverage better fits your itinerary.
What documents do I need to pick up a National rental car in New Hampshire?
To pick up your National rental car in New Hampshire, you will need to present the following at the counter:
- A valid, original, physical driver's license in the main driver's name
- A major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card, for the security deposit hold
- A passport or valid government-issued photo ID
- Your booking confirmation or printed voucher
- Round-trip flight tickets or cruise documents (required for international visitors)
If your driver's license is not in English and does not use a Latin (Roman) alphabet, such as Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic script, an International Driving Permit (IDP) is mandatory alongside your original license. For other non-English licenses, an IDP is strongly recommended.
All documents must be physical originals. Digital copies shown on a phone or tablet are not accepted at the National counter in New Hampshire. Obtain your IDP in your home country before traveling, as it cannot be issued abroad.
How does the Tolls Cashback benefit work for National rentals on New Hampshire toll roads?
Yes, all Hola Car Rentals bookings, including National rentals in New Hampshire, include Tolls Cashback, which reimburses up to 5% of your total booking value for tolls paid during your rental.
New Hampshire has several active toll roads where this benefit applies, including the Blue Star Turnpike (I-95), the F.E. Everett Turnpike (I-93/293), and the Spaulding Turnpike (NH 16). Typical car tolls on these roads range from US$0.70 to US$2.00 per plaza, depending on whether you use E-ZPass or pay cash.
To claim your cashback after returning your National rental in New Hampshire:
- Email [email protected] within 30 days of vehicle return
- Include your Hola Car Rentals reservation confirmation, the signed rental agreement, and a receipt or statement showing toll charges paid
- Use the subject line: Tolls Cashback - Reservation {Your Confirmation #}
Refunds are issued to your original payment method and typically process within 7 to 10 business days after approval. Late submissions beyond 30 days are not accepted.
What toll roads will I encounter driving a National rental car in New Hampshire?
New Hampshire has several toll roads you are likely to encounter when driving a National rental car in the state. The main toll corridors are:
- Blue Star Turnpike (I-95, Seabrook to Portsmouth): two toll plazas at Hampton, with car tolls of approximately US$1.40 to US$2.00
- F.E. Everett Turnpike (I-93/293, Nashua to Concord): approximately US$0.70 to US$1.00 for a standard car
- Spaulding Turnpike (NH 16, Portsmouth to Rochester): additional tolls apply along this corridor
All New Hampshire toll roads use the E-ZPass electronic system, though cash lanes remain available at most plazas. Your National rental vehicle will come equipped with an electronic toll device. At pickup you can choose an unlimited toll package (typically US$11 to US$25 per day) or pay per use, where the rental company charges actual tolls plus an administrative fee.
If you drive through an E-ZPass lane without enrolling in a toll program, National will auto-enroll your vehicle and bill tolls plus fees to your card. To avoid unexpected charges, confirm your toll preference at the National counter in New Hampshire before leaving the lot. Use ezpassnh.com/toll-rate-calculator for exact route pricing.
How does after-hours return work at the National location in New Hampshire?
Yes, after-hours returns are available at the National car rental location in New Hampshire at Manchester-Boston Regional Airport (MHT), 1 Airport Rd, Manchester, NH 03103.
National offers two after-hours return options at this New Hampshire location:
- After Hours Return: Park the vehicle in the designated return area and drop the keys in the marked key drop box
- Drop and Go: A staffed option available during certain hours where you can leave the vehicle quickly without a full counter check-in
Before your after-hours return, refuel the vehicle near the airport to comply with the full-to-full fuel policy. Keep your fuel receipt, take a photo of the dashboard showing the fuel gauge, and place the receipt in the key envelope if provided. This protects you in case a fuel charge appears after return.
Note that when you return a vehicle after hours, the rental agreement formally closes when staff inspect the car the following morning. Keep all documentation until you receive your final receipt confirming no additional charges.
Is a credit card required for the security deposit on a National rental in New Hampshire?
Yes, a major credit card in the main driver's name with the driver's name printed on the card is required for the security deposit hold at the National counter in New Hampshire.
At pickup, National will place a temporary authorization hold on your card, typically around US$300 to US$400 for a standard vehicle, though the exact amount varies by vehicle class and location. This hold reduces your available credit until it is released after you return the car.
- Debit cards and prepaid cards are not accepted for the deposit hold
- Virtual or digital-only card numbers are not accepted; you must present the physical card
- The card must be in the main driver's name, not a third party's name
Even if you prepaid your National booking in New Hampshire through Hola Car Rentals, you are still required to present a physical credit card at the counter for the hold. After you return the vehicle, the hold is released, but your bank may take up to 15 business days to reflect the release. Bringing a backup credit card is always a good idea in case your primary card is declined.
What travel assistance is included with a National car rental booking in New Hampshire?
Most Hola Car Rentals bookings, including National rentals in New Hampshire, include travel assistance coverage provided by Terrawind Global Protection. This benefit is particularly useful if you experience a medical emergency or other travel disruption while driving through New Hampshire.
Core benefits typically include:
- Travel and medical insurance coverage for up to 5 passengers

Important: this travel assistance benefit applies only to non-North American customers. Residents of the United States and Canada do not qualify for this coverage. Check your booking confirmation for the exact terms and coverage limits that apply to your National rental in New Hampshire.
What is the minimum age to rent a National car in New Hampshire?
The minimum age to rent a National car in New Hampshire without a young-renter surcharge is 25. Drivers aged 21 to 24 can rent but will be charged an additional daily underage fee at the National counter.
For National, Alamo, and Enterprise, the additional driver fee for drivers under 25 is US$15 per day plus applicable taxes, paid at the counter in New Hampshire.
Drivers under 25 renting in New Hampshire should also be aware of vehicle class restrictions. Categories such as full-size SUVs, premium, luxury, convertibles, and vans are typically restricted to renters aged 25 and older. Economy, compact, and intermediate vehicles are generally available to younger renters.
- Minimum age: 21 (with young-renter surcharge)
- No surcharge: 25 and older
- Additional driver underage fee (National): US$15 per day plus taxes
New Hampshire does not have the same state-law exceptions as New York or Michigan, so standard National policy applies. Confirm your eligibility and vehicle class availability before completing your booking.
Can I add an additional driver to my National rental in New Hampshire?
Yes, you can add an additional driver to your National rental in New Hampshire, either as part of your rate or by paying a fee at the counter.
For National rentals in New Hampshire, the additional driver fee is US$15 per day plus applicable taxes when not included in your rate. Check your Hola Car Rentals confirmation to see if your rate includes one additional driver at no extra cost.
Requirements for adding a driver at the National counter in New Hampshire:
- The additional driver must be present at pickup with a valid physical driver's license
- If their license uses a non-Latin alphabet (Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Cyrillic), an International Driving Permit is also required
- The additional driver must meet the minimum age requirements (21 minimum, surcharge applies under 25)
- Both the main driver and the additional driver must sign the rental agreement
Only drivers listed on the National rental agreement in New Hampshire are covered by protections such as CDW/LDW. Anyone who drives the vehicle without being named on the contract may void your coverage, so always add all drivers at the counter before leaving the lot.
What insurance options should I consider for a National rental in New Hampshire?
When picking up a National rental car in New Hampshire, you will typically be offered several insurance and protection options at the counter. Understanding what each covers helps you avoid paying for duplicate protection.
- Collision Damage Waiver (CDW/LDW): reduces your financial liability for damage to the National rental vehicle itself. A deductible may apply unless your confirmation states zero deductible.
- Third-Party Liability (LIS/ALI/SLI): covers bodily injury and property damage you may cause to other people or vehicles. New Hampshire does not universally mandate that rental companies include state-minimum liability, so confirm whether your booking includes this coverage.
CDW/LDW does not cover third-party liability, and LIS/ALI/SLI does not cover damage to the National vehicle itself. These are separate protections and are often paired together for more complete coverage.
Common exclusions from CDW/LDW in New Hampshire include tires, undercarriage, roof damage, and incidents involving unauthorized drivers or prohibited use such as off-road driving. Always review the rental agreement at the National counter before signing, and confirm which drivers are listed, as coverage applies only to named drivers.
What fuel policy applies to National rentals in New Hampshire?
National rentals in New Hampshire follow a full-to-full fuel policy. You receive the vehicle with a full tank and must return it full to avoid fuel charges.
At pickup at the Manchester-Boston Regional Airport location, check the fuel gauge with the National agent and confirm the starting level is recorded on your rental agreement. Take a photo of the dashboard showing the odometer and gauge before driving away.
When returning your National rental in New Hampshire:
- Refuel within approximately 10 miles of the return location at 1 Airport Rd, Manchester, NH 03103
- Keep your fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address
- Take a photo of the full gauge before returning the vehicle
- For after-hours returns, leave the receipt in the key envelope and keep a copy for your records
If you return the vehicle below the recorded starting level, National may charge you for the fuel shortfall at their own refueling rate, which is typically higher than retail pump prices, plus a service fee. Returning the tank full is always the most cost-effective option for your New Hampshire rental.
Can I pick up a National rental in New Hampshire and return it in another state?
Yes, one-way rentals are generally possible with National, allowing you to pick up in New Hampshire and return the vehicle in a different state, though a drop-off fee may apply depending on your route.
One-way fees for National rentals originating in New Hampshire vary based on the destination state, distance, vehicle class, and season. The fee is shown during the booking process under the "To pay at destination" section and will also appear on your booking confirmation. This fee cannot be prepaid and is settled at the National counter.
A few things to keep in mind for cross-state rentals from New Hampshire:
- Confirm that your rental agreement permits driving in the destination state, as some territory restrictions may apply
- Toll obligations continue in other states; your National vehicle's toll device and any enrolled program will apply across state lines
- If you change your drop-off location after booking, the one-way fee may be recalculated and availability is not guaranteed
If no drop-off fee appears during booking for your specific New Hampshire to destination route, no fee applies for that route. Always verify the details on your confirmation before pickup.
