Located on the River Main (hence its full name - Frankfurt am Main), Germany's fifth-largest city is also one of the country's most culturally appealing places to visit. With its impressive American-style cityscape of ultra-modern buildings and tall skyscrapers, it is attracting a growing number of tourists and business travellers from all over the world, who are drawn to the city's many first-rate attractions. Downtown Frankfurt's most popular public square is the pedestrianised Römerberg, which is lined with rows of lovely medieval buildings centred around a famous old fountain. Points of interest here include the 14th-century Gothic Church of St Leonhard and the wonderful Historical Museum (Historisches Museum Frankfurt) founded in 1878. Located on the north and south banks of the River Main, Frankfurt's vibrant museum district (known as the Museumsufer) comprises more than a dozen excellent museums covering the themes of science, history and art, chief among them the Städel Museum featuring several priceless paintings by Rembrandt, Vermeer, Monet and Picasso, amongst many others. Don't miss the amazing Museum of World Cultures (Museum der Weltkulturen), which houses one of the world's best ethnological collections. The long list of other must-see attractions in Frankfurt include the Palm Garden (the largest botanical garden in Germany) and Frankfurt's striking red sandstone cathedral built in the Gothic style in the 13th century.

" Hi there, I booked a car from Frankfurt Airport from June 6 to June 10 (Booking reference UK5869408). I then upgraded it from a Cupra Born to a Mercedes EQB as we gained another passenger. When I arrived at Frankfurt Airport I was told that I had arrived two hours early and the car wasn't ready - even though I had suppled the flight number (British Airways BA 8734 17:30). The person on the desk switched us to a VW Tayron and said there would be an additional charge of around €60 + a €500 deposit. I accepted this and paid. Car was great and returned fuelled with no damage. Today I was charged £258. In summary: My Original hire cost: £132.63 - for a CUPRA Born Revised cost: £158.11 - Mercedes EQB Charged today: £258. So I have paid £416 in total - when I was expecting to pay £158. I would like this explained and a refund issued please. Kind regards Niall "

" I am very displeased with my experience with this rental and I expect Auto Europe to deal with my complaint which neither your reservations team has done yet (request#4344206) or your customer service team (request #4358249, where I've been told your response time will be 6-8 weeks). Just to sum up the issue, I arrived at 10.30pm at the desk to pick up the car but Flex to Go said they could not accept my credit card as they had a policy requiring six month of validity following the return of the car (my card was still valid for 100 days but they needed 180). My other cards were an AMex (which they don't accept) and a debit card (which they would take either). I proposed adding my wife as a driver and using her VISA but they said the original booking was in my name so they couldn't do this either. In the end I was only offered the possibility of paying €320 to get their Insurance Plus product as well as pre-paying the fuel of the car (an additional €50). I called Auto Europe on the spot but was offered no solution other than calling customer service the following day. With 2 young children at 11pm in Hahn airport and 40 miles away from my airbnb, I was left with no choice but to pay this amount to be able to get the car. This credit card policy is completely non-standard and was not flagged by Auto Europe to me when I did the booking. I believe Auto Europe should not be offering a company with this non-standard policy at all or at least have this properly informed to clients. Therefore I would like Auto Europe to refund me for this amount. "

" This is the first time I have an issue like this. Car companies have tried sell insurance before but they never played a cheap trick like this. I still have the photos & I'll raise it with u if they make any problems with returning my money "
" They tried to sell me an insurance at 125€ which I denied as I have a full insurance through Autoeurope. Upon returning the vehicle, I got an email in German but looking at the images they have shown a new damage. Now I have asked for proof as I have before and after photos. But they have not responded & my money is not yet returned "

" As i have explained above we wanted and SUV. Past several years when we have booked thru you-we have always either got the car we booked or a better bigger car. This was first time the experience was different. We have been taking cars thru you for past 10 years now. "
" We booked for Skoda Kiroq but we were offered a VW Passat Station wagon stating that there were no cars available. However when we went with keys of VW - and load our bags-we find that the car we booked was very much standing there diagonally opp to where the allocated car to us was parked. This was unsual and find it strange. "

" A good platform but just a mediator "
" No proper hand over of the vehicle when picking up, just trying to throw off extra charge for "additional" covers where already opted in for full comprehensive cover including excess protection. However, when it comes to return they come out and inspect quite thoroughly vs pick up (nothing) with no clear photos they've already taken a quite a while ago. Had I not have photos taken myself upon pick up I'd probably have ended up either paying for what they claim my fault or gone into long discussions where I had a flight to catch. Not pleasant experience at all. Please do update the photos of the vehicle with clear focus if you want to claim something against customers. "

" (1) The pick-up was confirmed as Terminal 2 in our booking, which was our arrival terminal. Our flight was 15 minutes late, and by the time we found the Wheego counter in Terminal 1 (it's separate from all the other counters and not easy to find) they were about to close: I had a long discussion persuading them to release our car. (2) AutoEurope charged us £45.20 for the booking. However the receipt that Wheego gave us showed a total of €45.04 - why did we pay more than stated on the Wheego invoice? "

" The pick up was ok with a grumpy staff charging extra for being late, which was obviously visible to them based on the flight information. The extra charge for pick up and the child seat made this booking actually working out less value for money.

" OK mobility staff spoke neither German nor English very well. Indeed, the staff member at the counter did not speak at all because I believe she had some kind of throat infection. The petrol tank was not full, even though the rental was from full to full. This caused me invonveniece and concern, as Ihad to photograph the level (again ebcause the staff in the garage were oretty useless and spoke no English or German). And at drop-off I had to go back to the counter to make sure I wasn;t charged extra. In addition, the OK Moblity office in FRA T2 was closed, so I had to take a bus to T1. "

" Booking with Auto Europe was as always good. And when I had a problem they were much quicker in replying than the car hire company. "
" I was unfortunate, and they're probably better than this usually. Was supposed to collect car from Frankfurt airport Terminal 2, and chaos in the airport on that day meant that it took an hour to get from Terminal 1 to Terminal 2, only to find the Wheego desk empty and a sign instructing me to go and look for someone back in Terminal 1. The car itself looked OK, but when drove away I thought the gearbox felt heavy, but assumed it was a characteristic of the car. Part way into the journey the gear box began to jam - it was not possible to change gear without stopping the car, deliberately stalling it and pumping the clutch. Contacted Wheego and agreed that I would cut short my trip and attempt to get the car back to the airport a day earlier than intended, then book into a hotel for the last night. I did that, got back with great difficulty and many stops. On the way back, an oil light came on as well (an unrelated problem). Wheego has not apologised or offered any refund. "

On return I am always nervous as you hear so many horror stories from people being charged for damage they didn't do, but I had no problems at all. The staff on return were very efficient and I was on my way in no time, I have returned rental cars before where they are going round the car with torches and everything looking for something to bill you for but not here, they check the fuel and take a quick look at it and if you haven't damaged the car you are good to go. Would use them again "
" They didn't have the car I booked when I arrived but they did upgrade me to a bigger car. Not exactly a problem but the car I got was a huge estate and wasn't the easiest thing to park or manoeuvre in tight spaces. It was a lovely car though and drove fantastic, it's just that I booked more than six months in advance and didn't get the car I booked, that is the only fault I could find with my whole experience. The pick up and return went smoothly and I found the staff very helpful and friendly. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again "

" Auto Europe provided an excellent, friendly and efficient service. However the same CANNOT be said for Enterprise at Frankfurt Airport. "
" I have rented from Enterprise in the UK and abroad for many years and I have always been very happy until this rental. The car itself was excellent, but that was all. I made my booking using Auto Europe as it was cheaper, gave better choice of cars (?!) and a low-cost upgrade. I have my own excess cover, but it does not cover breakdown, so I checked and Auto Europe confirmed that breakdown assistance and recovery was included. I also gave our flight details for arrival at Frankfurt Airport, Terminal 2. I was travelling with my 92-year-old father who has limited mobility. On arrival, the special assistance team provided a wheelchair and took us to the Enterprise Office at Terminal 2, only to find it was closed. Instead we had to take a difficult bus journey to Terminal 1. Thankfully special assistance was able to stay with us, so we made it. At the Enterprise desk, I was told breakdown cover was chargeable. I have never had this before with Enterprise and I had selected them over two cheaper options because of this. When I pointed this out, I was not charged for breakdown cover, but I have no idea if we were covered. In addition, I was not informed about the condition of the vehicle and it was NOT personally handed over to us. Later I realised we had not been given any return information and I couldn't find it in the documentation. I made several attempts to contact Enterprise at Frankfurt Airport and despite being told by call centre they would call me back, they never did. Eventually I emailed Auto Europe and they quickly called me back. They put me through to the Enterprise office in Frankfurt city who told me where and how to drop off the car on return to terminal 2. Overall this was a very frustrating and incomplete car hire service from Enterprise at Frankfurt Airport, only offset by the high quality and good condition of the vehicle provided, and the excellent service from Auto Europe. Extremely disappointing. "

" Hiring a car is always slightly fraught with uncertainty as you are never quite sure what car they will give you. I know the main brands (VW, Ford) but some of the cars they have nowadays I don't have a clue so very difficult to know at the desk if the car will be suitable. "
" The car was fairly dirty on the outside, making it difficult to see if there were any scratches. It would be really handy to have a representative in the car park when picking up the car so that you know it has been agreed that there are no scratches.

" Everything was fine except the vehicle provided. Auto Europe advertised a car in a higher category to the one the supplier provides. The reason for choosing that option was based on renting the T-roc suv as it was the best price and big enough. Alamo only provide T-cross which is a size category below. It's frustrating that auto Europe advertise false info, I appreciate there is small print but it is equivalent vehicular, this is not the equivalent vehicle.

I am visiting Frankfurt twice a month and last time I took my car from you as well and all went fine. This Wheego was testing project and it ended not so good so we are not selecting this company anymore. Auto Europe we will use also in the future. "
" When I went to Wheego counter no car was available. I had to wait for the car. When the car finally arrived it was not fully tanked or washed or vacuum cleaned. When I returned my car Wheego claimed that I have caused new damages but no one provided me the protocol of the stand when I got the car, only the new protocol of the damages which were caused by the previous driver. Wheego booked a caution of 250 euro from my accounts but never returned it. I assume that this due to the claim that I caused the damages which I did not do. Normally I photograph the car I am renting but this time I didn't do it as the waiting time was very long and when I went to pick up point there were no one and I had to walk back to counter to inform that still don't have keys. Frustrated about the service in general. I was advised to walk down again then someone handed me the keys but not any protocol of the car. It was clearly my mistake not to check the car thoroughly before accepting it. I only photographed the fuel gage. If Wheego sees that I have to pay the caution of 250 euro then can you send me respective invoice. This is company rental and we need the invoice copy. Can you check this with your partner. "

" Very unsatisfactory experience of SIXT "
" Upon arrival at the SIXT office there was a long queue. It soon became evident that SIXT had no cars. I waited 1 hour to be served. SIXT could not explain why they'd sold my reservation to another customer. The SIXT representative tried to sell me an upgrade: Euro 250 extra a day for a Maserati! I noticed that SIXT appeared to have lots of premium vehicles which they were holding back or trying to sell. Not good. Unprofessional and greedy. Because of the delay, my car was dirty and I didn't arrive to my hotel until after midnight. Very very unhappy. "

" We had a really annoying experience. Auto Europe need to take some ownership of the gap between buying a voucher and the local car hire office not really caring about the Auto Europe customer. It should not be possible to book a car at 11pm if the office isn't open! I've been extremely loyal to Auto Europe for almost 20 years now when travelling across Europe, US, South America and Australia. I've had the odd issue but never something as basic as this. I'm certainly considering other options and will not recommend Auto Europe at all until I hear something credible back from you! My main point is I had my 11yo son in tears and extremely tired and frustrated. If you had a baby with you or were disabled it would've been even worse. You should follow this up because it's such a basic process fail and should never ever happen to your customers. Thank you! "
" The booking was for 11pm. The flight details were on the booking. Apparently the usual practice is for the Terminal 2 Office to shut at 7pm and a message is on the door to go to the other terminal. Our plane was 10mins late and we got the Terminal 1 office at 11.15pm. Next door (Sixt) told us that National had closed at 10:45pm. We had to book an expensive hotel and sort out transport to it which wasn't easy. We had ski kit and airport taxis wouldn't take us because they were e class mercedes that couldn't take a 190cm ski bag. Public transport was available but no one was around to explain how to use it. We talked to cleaners and randon travellers but it still took us almost 2 hours to get to the hotel, eventually we got an uber from a tube station because although we'd got the right tube line it was the wrong direction. The next day I explained this to Salome Gloux from National who as polite and apologetic. We were given a free upgrade and no charge for going into Austria which was helpful. However the hotel cost 133 euros and we eventually left the airport in a car about 11 hours later than expected, which is basically half a day of our holiday. I don't understand why National shut the office knowing we had a booking for 11pm. If they had attempted to call me I had my phone on as we landed around 10pm local time. Really poor service, it can't be that hard to notice that one of the bookings hasn't turned up. If they looked up the flight they would've seen it was 10mins late and landed in the other terminal so would take 20mins to get over to their office. Also other car hire offices were there and open!

Called up the next day to cxl the rest of the booking as had to be collected from the airport and couldn't get back to be told I could not cxl a part booking. Total waste of money and unbelievably poor service. Arrive at a major airport to find no way of collecting your vehicle. What a joke. "

" Firstly we had real issues finding the collection point for the car ad Frankfurt airport is massive. However after 25 minutes of walking with all our luggage, we came across what we thought was the collection point, it was in fact Terminal 1 pickup. The operator on the desk was less than helpful with our current situation. We were a party of 5, one of them was a 15 month old. He suggested I did the paperwork with him then go across to terminal 2 to collect the vehicle, transit time & collection would be 2+ hours. The car being offered (A Ford Courier Kombi) was not the one we requested (A Ford Mondeo Estate), when I questioned this, I was told this was an upgrade, so basically think yourself lucky. I explained we has a ton of luggage which was why we requested and estate car, 'Well we have none' was his reply. However we do have a Ford Edge at Terminal 1, if you want that for €50/day extra, it will also save you the extended time to go across to terminal 2. His attitude and business ethics were questionable at best, he gave us no alternative but to accept the Ford Edge and kept quoting how difficult it would be to get any cars from other dealers as it was late in the day. In the end, in the interests of everyone's sanity I was left no alternative but to pay the extra for the Ford Edge. An issue I will be taking up with Santander. "

" The Auto Europe part was much easier than actually picking the car up! However, more clarity on cross-border fees would be good. I had to really dig into the T&Cs to get this information, which for a European rental is a frequent requirement. Since it can vary considerably between rental companies it would be better if it was clearer. "
" Finding the location at Frankfurt Airport Terminal 1 was very unclear - it took me a long time to find it. When I arrived, the counter was shared by Alamo, Enterprise and ?National and it was very unclear where to queue. Too much upselling - the clerk tried to sell me a bigger vehicle which I didn't want, plus a sat nav that was already in the car. I was also offered to pre-pay for a full tank of diesel, which was a clear attempt at making money out of me as it's almost impossible to return a car completely empty. It also wasn't possible for me to pay the cross-border fee on my debit card and then the deposit on my credit card. I really don't understand why this had to be a single transaction and it was really inconvenient as I don't use my credit card normally. Finally, I booked a group A car and was given group C. I specifically wanted a SMALL vehicle and feel like Alamo had enough notice to get one in place at a huge airport location. "

However, when picking up the car and needing a booster seat for the safety of a child there is no other option but to pay the exorbitant cost. This leaves a feeling of being ripped off.

" Worst experience with SIXT. I was told by the counter staff that I don't have an excess insurance even though when I told them I have bought it online with Auto EUROPE. He insisted on buying it from them for which he charges me 44 euros extra. He even told me to book it directly with SIXT to avoid confusion. This was not the only thing, I booked for Mercedes car but he told me due to it's unavailability they will offer me a SUV and to my surprise when I picked it up it was ford kuga which I won't call it as SUV. I finally dropped the vehicle at the same place from where I picked and went to counter of SIXT to ask for refund of additional cost which I paid for a drop at different location..for which again they asked me to talk to Auto EUROPE. One of my worst experiences of renting a car. "

" Very good experience over all. The only thing was we walked to the car 20 minutes and only to find out that we needed to walk back to a different location to pick up the keys. We asked for a manual car and got an automatic car. "

" Not very good "
" We arrived at the desk and they said because we where late ( flight delayed) they had given our car out which we had paid up front in full so it cost me £ 150.00 euros for an up grade because they did not have another one like we ordered and the last day of hire the brakes where grinding I should have had a free upgrade "

" It has been 25 days and you have not refunded me yet............ "
" The Interrent staff refused to give the car, he even made fun of me by saying "is this a driving license for driving a plane or a motorcycle" worst attitude ever. "

" The car we had booked was not available when we went to the desk. The attendant told us it was because we were 1hr late . We explained our flight wa delayed, but the car was paid for and should not have gone to another customer. The attendant told us the only option was for us to pay for a bigger car, I said no. He then said he could find us an alternative car but would have to wait for 40mins. Bearing in mind I was traveling with my 3 year old daughter, this was unnaceptable. "

" OVerall positive except for the return of deposit. "
" The Pickup was excellent and the customer service was patient. We were able to get a car of the right size although the reserved model was not available. But after the return i had not received the refund of deposit till now. This is frustrating as it means i would have to pay the Credit card bill even though its a deposit if not i will incur finance charges. "

" Generally good, sometimes needs to look closely at the rental companies qualify "
" Had Ford Mondeo or similar car booked. After 30-40 mind waiting, I was told the only 2 cars are Ford EcoSport ( mini SUV). Staff told me take it or go and complain to your broker. If I hadn't have to travel for a meeting, I would have tried to switch the company. Terrible "

" Slight delay and confusion at pick up but otherwise totally satisfied Brand new A Class and hassle free One point, not sure if possible but it would have been nice to have SatNav in English - I couldn't figure out if it was possible to have directions in English rather than German Now fluent in German SatNav speak "

" we not got the car with unlimited miles as we ask for "
" when we booked the car we specifically choosen a car with unlimited miles but when we picked the car up we noted that the staff wrote down the miles so we knew that we have to pay extra for miles over the limit but no one said anything to us about that . so we will NOT tell our family and friends to hire from your company "

" Everything top except weird dropoff "
" It was a bit confusion at the drop off because there was no one from interrent/ Buchbinder and I just got told by a Sixt employee to leave the car there with the key inside. It felt a bit weird, but at the same time very convenient if indoor have to wait for someone to check. "

" Give your counter staff some training. Modernise your paperwork. Go to your desk at Copenhagen Airport and see how it can be done - courteous, quick and efficient. "
" I rent from this location weekly. Counter staff are surly and indifferent. They always claim the vehicles are undamaged, but there is always damage on them which then needs a member of staff to inspect, causing delay. They NEVER show existing damage on their forms, but then go over the vehicle with a fine tooth comb on return. They are the Ryanair of car hire - the cheapest, but with zero customer service. "

" The drop off in Munich was a nightmare, there were no signs to the drop off depot & when I eventually got there the staff were very unhelpful. The man did not explain the check-in procedure at all, I found it a very confusing & upsetting process. I had filled up with petrol on the way into Munich but due to getting lost had obviously used a little fuel & the check-in man just kept saying that the fuel was not full, he didn't say whether he wanted me to go & fill it up or whether I had to pay an excess. "
" The collection of the car at Frankfurt airport went very smoothly & the staff were helpful "
" A bumper scratch could not be seen till I left the underground carpark. I left the car to inform the hire company in the terminal. Afterwards I had to pay to leave the car park! Silly money but I lost almost an hour! "
" If rental companies state the car is blemish free it should be, it is no good saying:"Make sure it is...". "
" Very satisfied with the car that was provided on arrival at Frankfurt Hahn. The return of the car was so smooth and all seems okay. "

" No interaction with Auto Europe so far for this rental. Convenient to have the car company ratings and to be able to compare tariffs. "
" Buchbinder tried to charge me for pretty much invisible damage to the wind screen, it took 10 minutes of fighting to get them to acknowledge that it was pre-existing. After that, they looked for something else and said that there was damage under the car, which was "invisible indeed but that they could feel with their hand". I wrote on the contract that I was disputing it and left (so I am now waiting on the outcome). Buchbinder tried to sell me a full tank refill despite me telling them i would drive less than 2 hours. I declined and did my own refill which cost me just under 10 euros... They were also very insistent on selling me the additional insurance. "
" Good service. Very competitive price. "
" Very nice service. Car (Nissan Note Auto) was not so great - very under-powered. Would have preferred the Golf I thought I was getting. "
" Auto Europe provide a very good service and are always very competitive. "
" I like their cars, they always have fairly new vehicles, well looked after. The only problem is on arrival there is always a long wait at the collection counter, even if there are only two or three people waiting. On arrival at Frankfurt airport early a.m. on 6th September this year I had to wait for the most part of two hours to get my car. There was a huge queue and only one person at the desk. Apparently due to sickness. That was unacceptable as the management should have called somebody in to cover under the circumstances! We had all been up since 4 a.m. that morning. Otherwise they are very good. "
" As helpful as always.I changed my booking twice,over the phone,all done in an instant.Wonderful service,would never dream of booking with anyone else. "
" Extremely helpful. I was very impressed with their service, they even carried my baggage and showed me to my car.Would highly recommend to anyone. "
" Overall, very positive experience. Will certainly use again! "
" Clerk was very professional, courteous, and helpful. A pleasurable encounter! "
" Good website, good choice, good prices. "
" Excellent service at the desk, car in great condition, short distances, very good experience. "
" Very simple process. "
" Helpful staff and very nice clean car. "
" Had to wait for confirmation due to request to drop car off at different destination which took a day. "
" Arriving at Terminal 1, had to go to Terminal 2 which took a bit of time... Got a free upgrade on the car, excellent! returned car to Dussledorf which was on the 6 floor of a carpark with a very tight spiral ramp... not fun! but managed to arrive with no scrapes. "
" Excellent "
" Very happy with everything ! "
" I have used Auto Europe on many occasions over the last couple of years and I'm always pleasantly surprised how much cheaper the car hire is through you than by going directly to the car hire company. This has been the main reason for me recommending you to a number of my colleagues who also travel in Europe. "
" The person at the Thrifty desk was friendly and helpful and also provided me with a free upgrade without any prompting. On returning the car, the Thrifty contact in the parking garage was also friendly and courteous. "
" next time include options on excess and include price of insurance for young driver "
" was a bit of a walk to get to car. better directions required on where to drop car "
" We chose Auto Europe for the Mercedes Vito offered under category "luxury". We understand that it is subject to availability, but what we received was a 9 seater VW Karavelle which is not that "luxury" more like a factory van. But the van was in good mechanical condition but not clean like when we rented the BMW from Avis in 2006. The VW is a reliable car and fuel efficient. "
" The service provided by the gentleman staff at the counter in Terminal 2 was excellent. I could even buy the Swiss Vignette sticker there. Very convenient. However all 3 child seats we received we hard, definitely not soft at all. Could be more comfortable. "
" Very good experience. Very good customer service from young man on the desk at Frankfurt. Car was excellent and whole 9 days were hassle free. A very quick car pickup, one of the quickest we have ever had "
" No problem on this occasion; the rental that followed (2670514-1) was less satisfactory "
" Excellent service "
" Special deal Rate cannot modify or add day on rental "
" Good car "
" I've used AutoEurope twice now - once in Germany and once in Italy. Both times the service has been brilliant. Importantly, they were also the cheapest. Very impressed and will use again. "
" Budget/Avis completed teir side of the contract without any issues. I returned the car with a half empty tank so we'll see if they rip us off for the diesel. "
" very easy to pick up the car at the airport. car was excellent. everything went according to plan, no hidden costs. "
" The car was excellent as was the service i did however feel that the excess was a little high and would have prefered to pay more to remove it. "
