Located in the heart of the enchanting Languedoc region of southern France, Montpellier woos its many visitors with its lovely tree-lined boulevards, impressive aristocratic mansions and inviting public squares where you can sit and order a café au lait and watch the world go by. Blessed with an atmospheric old-world charm, the city's historic centre (known as L'Écusson) is a maze of narrow cobblestone streets adorned with dozens of small family-run restaurants, cafés and old shops selling locally-made handicrafts. Drop in on the Fabre Museum to marvel at its rare European sculptures and paintings from the medieval era to the contemporary period before enjoying a leisurelly stroll in the Montpellier Botanical Gardens a short drive away. Another of the city's key attractions is the excellent Planet Ocean located in Port Marianne, a world-class ocean-themed aquarium with enough exhibits to keep the kids entertained for several hours. Montpellier basks in more than 300 days of warm sunshine throughout the year, making it an excellent place to visit in winter as well as during the long summer months. Beach lovers should head for La Plage de l'Espiguette less than half an hour away by car to relax on one of the best beaches in the South of France.

" I booked a Peugeot 2008 type vehicle and Thrifty set about offering me less. It started with a small MG and then we were offered a C3 Aircross. It was a nice little car but it was little and we had to compromise. I pointed out that it was significantly smaller than a 2008: there was one standing 2 cars away from it BUT I was told it was an automatic and I could only have it if I paid an extra £20 per day(!). I was also told it was the same size. It clearly isn't but the internal dimensions of many cars are similar and that was what was relied on. A call from a manager was promised but not forthcoming, and we had stayed an extra day in Montpellier area, so very bitter sweet. I wouldn't use Thrifty again and I believe they are part of Hertz. Sorry about the delay in sending this off but v busy when I got back and I then wondered whether worthwhile, but I feel you have to know how we felt. "

" Will not be using them again! Not a good experience. "
" I hired a car for a short break. When I got to the counter I was asked if I'd like premium insurance. I said no because I have already added the extra insurance to my booking. When I returned back to the UK I was charged an extra £200 for the premium insurance. I have disputed it and told it should be 5 days. It's now been 1 month and I've had no response. I've called 3 times and been told they're waiting for France to reply whether I will win the dispute!! Please be awake when checking in they don't add extras you DIDN'T ask for! "

" There are hidden costs that are not advertised and currently disputing them with Europcar. They are currently in the process of investing this and I am waiting for them to get back to me. I have auto Europe for a number of years with no issues at all and have been great. It makes no sense why there are so many hidden charges this time! "

" BAD. Requested a polo because of the legroom - but there wasn't one, so it would be a Corsa. Your agent offered a larger car, but I t was told I would have to pay for - take it or leave it. Drove for 90 mins to my destination and could hardly get out of the car. Thereafter hardly drove it. Found out from the agent when I returned the car that there is only one polo on site, which rather makes a mockery of the "VW Polo or similar". It would have been true to say "Corsa, or if you are very very fortunate you will get the one Polo which we have". MISREPESENTATION springs to mind. ALTOGETHER A BAD EXPERIENCE "

" OK, but I consider that I should have been supplied with what I ordered. "
" Car was not what I ordered - I asked for a manual petrol and was supplied with an automatic hybrid - this took some time to get used to driving, due to lack of proper instruction. In particular, the default to lane control was very unnerving to begin with. Cost of adding a second driver was very expensive, so not selected. Significant pressure put on me to accept and take out additional insurance - which added significantly to the car hire. "

On drop off, their office was closed and it had a notice on it saying to go to another location which I did.

" Unfortunately when I arrived at the airport I was told that I did not have any insurance coverage. I explained I had paid extra for it and showed the voucher, however I was told by Theo that I was not covered at all. I asked what I had paid extra for it and he just shrugged his shoulders. This was only the second time I had hired a car and previously I had bought an annual insurance but had not renewed it, I then asked Theo if I could quickly renew it as I knew I could on my phone, he told me it was too late to do that. There were a number of people behind me and I was a single woman travelling by myself. I ended up paying 250 for the insurance for the car as he made me feel I had no choice. This was more than the original rental. I feel very upset that I was taken advantage of in this way and feel scammed which obviously is not what you want to feel at Christmas visiting elderly relatives. I would appreciate it if you could give me a name and number to take my complaint further, my complaint is really with the customer service I received at the desk although I don't understand why he was unaware of the insurance I had already paid for through autoeurope. I look forward to hearing from you. "

" Once again, do not get the car booked. Requested a Volvo V40 for comfort reasons. Was given a Renault Megane. Very different. Surely from time to time we should get the right car? What is the point of offering different models? Just go for the cheapest in any one category? "
" At pickup, I reported that the fuel gauge was only reading three-quarters full. Was told there was an isue with the gauge itself. I was offered a new car (too much hassle, we were already loaded up) or just fill to as far as it would go on return. We filled twice, and both times the gauge went to full, no problem. We returned the car displaying full. No compensation was offered. Had we returned it only displaying three-quarters as we had collected it, apparently we would have been charged for the additional fuel to top up.

If ever, any thing has gone wrong (eg bad experience with Herz) Auto Europe were on the case straight away and sorted the problem out. I'd never book a car direct. "

" I have been hiring cars all over the world for over 40 years for both business and pleasure. I have used many different companies for bookings and sometimes booked direct with the hire companies. I am familiar with all the ways that extra charges are made and have found Auto Europe by far the best, even sorting out problems when the actual car rental companies prove troublesome. My experience with the Auto Europe element of my rental was again first rate. Regarding the experience with Thrifty (Hertz) I have NEVER encountered the same problem that I encountered at the Hertz desk in Montpelier, France where the staff refused to even commence processing my details until the precise time on the collection Voucher was reached - there were no other customers waiting at all, they simply refused to speak to us. Whenever this has happened in the past, companies (including Hertz) have simply let me have the car slightly early. Even if there were insurance issues, they could have processed the paperwork so that we were ready for the allocated time. Instead, one of the staff went home and the other went outside for a cigarette! Very poor customer service. Thrifty or other Hertz companies will now be bottom of my choice list. "
" Our Flight was slightly early and we were therefore ahead of the scheduled pick up time by 45 mins as I had erred on the side of caution when setting the time. Thrifty (Hertz) made us sit and wait for 45 mins despite the car being ready and that it would have made no difference to the rental price. This is the first time in 40 years of hiring cars abroad that I have encountered such an action. We hired a car through Auto Europe with Europcar in exactly the same place only 2 weeks earlier and were earlier than the set pick up time by half an hour and they did not impose the waiting time. Thrifty or other Hertz companies will now be bottom of my choice list. Very poor customer service. "

" I have no problems with Aut Europe. "
" I was surprised and irritated that when I picked up the car, I was advised that I would have to pay a €7 cleaning fee, the alternative being to bring the car back completely cleaned, or face a €14 charge on return. This was not mentioned on the voucher supplied by yourselves. I refused to pay the €7 euros, and when I returned the car, was initially advised that I would be charged the €14 for cleaning. When I said that I wished to take photos of the interior and exterior to prove that the car was brought back in a reasonably clean condition (that other hire companies would accept without any additional charges) the agent agreed not to charge for the cleaning. I think such charges should be made clear at the time of booking, as obviously it may affect which company you choose. I will avoid Interrent in the future. "

" Please review my comments as l would be interested to know whether breakdown cover was included on the additional policy l purchased from Auto Europe? "
" Disappointing, on pick-up l was served by Jerome the customer advisor on the Avis desk, he advised that breakdown cover was not included in the agreement and costing me an additional 80 euros despite having taken out an additional insurance policy with Auto Europe? I was also informed that the fuel gauge was faulty and was only registring 3/4 of a tank of fuel. This turned out to be untrue as when l filled the car up the fuel gauge registered full. I subsequently returned the car with 3/4 of a tank and was was again served by Jerome who tutted at me and denied all knowledge. The car also had alloy wheel damage and scratches on both passenger side for handles. "

" Auto Europe is a very good service "
" The service was very efficient and the car fine. What was not good was the fact they took over £200 from my credit card as a guarantee. I have rented cars in France for 15 years and this is the first time this has been done - previously it is simply a reading of the card which is not debited with any sum. It will be refunded but I think it unacceptable to do this - will not use Alamo Ent again. "

" We were given an upgrade from a Peugeot 3008 to an Opal Vectra Estate which we were initially pleased with and a free extra drive as there was a short que ... generous and a good price.. However, door pillars are too wide, the front passenger seat has no lumber adjustment and does not adjust down and as the rear of the car slopes down too with very wide pillars the visibility is poor to dangerous ... especially on the 30mins of narrow mountain roads to where we stayed in the foot mountains at Valmanya, Nr. Vinca. The front tyres were very low on tread which we did not notice until day 4 in the mountains!!! But, they were just legal when we gave the car back. The car had built in Sat. Nav even though when asked we were told it did not. "
" I booked an estate car (Station Wagon/Break) and confirmed that this was the case at Montpellier station with Laureen who dealt with the paperwork with me. When I got to the car pound however, the C5 they had reserved was a sedan. Not big enough to transport my partially dismantled tandem! The only available alternative was a Peugeot Partner van-style people carrier. I accepted this car, as I had to get to Caen for my ferry reservation, however this was far from ideal: my wife had to sit in a rear seat for the 10 hour journey in order to accomodate the length of the bicycle. It was far less comfortable and suitable to Autoroute travel than the large estate I had ordered. "
" Website should make it clear there will be an extra charge should you choose to drop the vehicle off at a different location. The site indicated the identical cost for same and different locations. "
" Staff very pleasant and helpful however they charged me 78 Euro extra as I wanted to drop the car off at Beziers Airport and not Montpellier, the total rental cost of the car was only 74 Euro, so not at all happy about that. "
" Car was not clean, but otherwise very satisfied "
" Within a four day hire period we had to make two changes of vehicle, the first because of a non-functioning seat belt, the second because of a serious engine fault. I have been promised a rebate of two days hire: should this materialise, I shall feel compensated for the undoubted inconvenience. "
" very helpful; offered me an upgrade to the car I booked. Many thanks. "
" Arrived too early to collect car, apparently, so got "conned" into paying another £100 for a different car "

" This will be neutral until we have received a satisfactory response from our complaint. "
" We have filed a complaint regarding problems experienced with Enterprise at Montpellier. We had disgusting service on our drop off and would definitely not recommend this company. They reflect a poor and very unsatisfactory customer service on every level. "
" Everything was fine. "

" Very good and straightforward booking via website. Windows app would be useful. "
" Always very helpful and they provide good customer support. "

" Received an upgrade to a slightly bigger car with built in gps & diesel engine. When inspected it was covered in amazingly big scratches ,all were recorded in good humourous attitude & caused no problems at the end of rental. Also very impressive economy. "
" Always found you very straightforward to deal with. "
" More attentive than the many other companies we have used before. They came with us to check condition of car on pick up and return and made a point of phoning us to check everything was ok on next day. "
" Easy to navigate website. "
