KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Stansted

  • Visitors to Stansted are highly recommended to rent a vehicle during their time in the city, simply so that they can take full advantage of England’s wonderful sights and local culture. One great option for visitors to Stansted is to take a quick trip down to the National Trust Hatfield Forest. Located just 6.4 miles away, it is a former royal hunting ground with trees that date back to over a 1,000 years ago.
  • Travelers arriving at London Stansted Airport will find the hire car companies in the Car Rental Village. You can reach the village by taking the free shuttle that departs from the terminal forecourt.
  • It is illegal to use a cell phone or other hand-held device while driving in Stansted and throughout the U.K. This includes texting, phone calls, and using your phone as a GPS device while driving and when stopped at a traffic light. To legally use a cell phone, drivers must have it a hands-free mode. Additionally, if using it for navigation, the phone must be programmed ahead of time as you cannot enter the address while operating the vehicle.
  • Due to its proximity to London, Stansted does experience general commuter rush hour woes. During the work week, rush hour usually starts up shortly after 7:00 a.m. and lasts until 9:00 a.m. The afternoon and evening rush hour generally goes from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 or 7:00 p.m.
  • Book your rental car in Stansted at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Economy rental cars in Stansted are around 71% cheaper than other car types, on average

It really was value for money. The staff team did a great job welcoming me both pick up and drop off. Car photos as cleanliness and setup were good and easy to use. Very convenient! My top tip or feedback would be to make the Dollar location clearer as we found the building but there was only a tiny sign that's easily missed. As its in the hertz counter.

Car was picked up with damaged and was noted in the contract but still being charged for the damage of over $2K. Called and was routed to multiple departments with many phone calls. It hasn’t been resolved yet. We have videos and photos as proofs that the damages were there before we checked out the car. Very bad customer services

Never rent from them. If you do, video tape the car before you drive off. They rented me a car with pre-existing minor paint damage and accused me of creating it. They are dishonest. I've never had to deal with this before and have rented hundreds of cars. This is the only company I've encountered who does this.

My experience with Hertz was very poor. I booked the car online for what seemed like a competitive price. However on arrival Hertz told me it would cost 2x the rental price I had paid for the basic cover (250 for the rental, 500 for the insurance). This was unexpected as I asked them how could I book it without insurance? They said I must have used the American site. I wasn’t aware that I did as I’m not American. Either way it was all a shock and not a pleasant surprise to get.

The customer service experience at the desk could have been better. The agent made us anxious about potential charges for any scratches on the car body or alloys before we even received the keys, which was unsettling. During my last rental with Drivalia UK, they never mentioned anything like this, and I didn’t feel pressured about the car’s return condition. It was a much more pleasant experience compared to this one.
