With its diverse cultural scene and striking architecture, the magnificent city of Vienna is a must for people visiting central Europe. When you rent a car in Vienna you've got the whole of the Austrian capital at your disposal, and this is a city that can keep you entertained for weeks! Its rich assortment of museums, theatres, live music venues and art galleries is second to none, plus the city is also famous for its world-renowned opera house and Prater, a 3,200-acre park full of fairground attractions and a host of other leisure activities to amuse the kids. Once the nucleus of the vast Habsburg Empire, Vienna has many wonderful buildings of that era perfectly restored and open to the public, most notably the Hofburg, arguably the most historically significant of all Austria's sumptuous palaces. From Vienna you can take to the road on Austria's fine network of motorways to explore many other parts of the country, such as Innsbruck, capital of the enchanting Tirol region, or the beautiful city of Salzburg followed by a memorable visit to the Zell am See lake district less than an hour's drive south.

" With Autoeurope you always get the best deals. Only issue I would flag is the car categorization but not sure if it sits with Sixt or AutoEurope. "
" Generally I do always have a great experience with Sixt but this time O was disappointed: (1) I booked via Autoeurope a vehicle for 5+ people as we were 5 people traveling with 2 kids in car seats. The car we were given was very small and for the adult who had to sit in the back with the kids it was very uncomfortable. I asked the staff about it and was told that I could only change the car by paying an additional supplement. The specs of the cars on offer need to be better categorized to avoid those issues. (2) A few miles into driving I got told to fuel up icon Ad Blu. I am not driving a Diesel vehicle at home and at the pickup was not told that I need to watch out for Ad Blu... Also very frustrating to have to fuel up for (€30+) and not get a car already fueled up... (3) Within as well a couple of hours driving I got a warning lamp saying the tyres need filling up.... Again would not expect to have to do that on a rental and 3/4 tyres had insufficient air. The location for picknup was great, the car is a very good one, but Sixt should categorize the cars better to avoid space issues, check those Ad Blu levels and make sure tyres are filled up. "

" Apart from enjoying your usual high standards and excellent pricing / service ...I was somewhat annoyed at the principal of having to pay extra 12 euros for a vignette at the desk , otherwise Dryyve could not release the car for hire ..begs the question as to why your advertised hire price is not achievable..I've never been charged separately for a vignette before , because you cannot rent in Austria without one in the first place .

" The forced paying of extra insurance ruined my 3 day trip with y family. "
" At the counter on arrival, I was forced to take out extra insurance of 99 euros. The counter staff member told me that I did not have an international driving license, even though this was not requested before my arrival. I provided my documents of passport, full UK driving license and credit card. This was all that was requested before arrival, The counter staff was very rude to me and my family and would not release the car unless I paid extra 99 euro insurance for my 3 day trip. I am very likely to put these comments on trip adviser and other websites . "

" Easy to rent with Auto Europe but no recourse in case of scams like the one I am suffering from at the hands of Hertz. "
" No-one was available when I arrived at the airport, so I had to come the following day. Hertz made up that a (very small) dent had appeared on the side of the car and claimed 980€ against the repair. My experience of rental cars (and I often rent cars) is that any damage smaller than a golf ball does not get reported: this dent is only a few millimetres long. The photos provided by Hertz a few days after I dropped the car (not when I dropped the car) looked photoshopped. I have since heard of similar scams at Vienna airport and within Hertz. I will avoid Hertz and its sister companies at all costs from now on. "

" The Auto Europe experience was faultless, as always. "
" I've shared this with Sixt also but the rental experience was overall very positive (especially being able to return to a different location). There were two items worth mentioning though: 1) On collection I was advised that a Hong Kong driving licence is no longer acceptable in Austria. On return to Hong Kong, I queried this with the Austria Consulate who confirmed that Hong Kong licenses with IDP remain valid for car hire in Austria. However they advised that a technical issue in the ÖAMTC Website caused confusion to car hire companies and they will ask the relevant authority to fix this. Not Sixt's fault, but I thought it worth mentioning anyway as it could create problems for future customers. 2) No one was present for the return. That's absolutely fine - I called the number published and returned keys to the secure box. However later in the day I received an email about new damage to the car. This was surprising as the car was only ever parked on a secure, empty driveway. I assume this was all sorted out however as my deposit was returned in full - it just caused a negative feeling for a few days after the rental. "

" Would rather go to a provider where all charges are clear to avoid nasty surprises at pick up. "
" The car was good, but it felt like there were a lot of hidden charges not made explicitly clear when making the booking. In particular - they charge you up front a cleaning fee, which they state is refundable, but not automatically and it is up the user to provide evidence and request the fee to be refunded. "

" Never again will I rent from these crooks "
" I will never rent from these crooks again and I am telling everyone not to rent from them. I received a good quote for 5 days only to arrive to collect the car to realise that there was a 500km limit. I had to pay €148 to have an extra 500 km added to my limit. Then because I drove through Bad Reichenhal in Germany , from Vienna to Kitzbuhel , I was charged €99 for crossing borders. Now I´ve been charge €99 twice because of speeding fines. I still have to pay the speeding fines. I have never had this problem of extra charges with any other hire company before. If you continue to broker for this company, I will never use your company to book car rental again. "

" See above "
" 1. I arrived to the counter, having ordered an SUV and was asked if I was ok with automatic. I said no problem. When I got to the car, it was a tiny car. I had 3 children with me and needed to get ski stuff in, so I had to go back to the counter and request a different car. When I said to the lady that there was a problem she said 'well I did ask you if automatic was ok'. She never asked me about the size of the automatic and I didn't need this retort from her. 2. When I got the car it was 5300km overdue a service. this is disgraceful! Especially when I had been told that any breakdowns would be my responsibility! Surely safety should come first and yet my family and I were put in a vehicle that was thousands of kms overdue a service! The chance for breaking down would obviously have been much higher in such a scenario and should the car have broken down, why would I have to pay due to the negligence of Dryyve? 3. At drop off, I was charged a 30 Euro cleaning fee! This is utterly ridiculous as it's a hidden cost because what vehicle isn't going to come back needing to be cleaned. Even if you drove it around for an hour, it's going to need a clean, so this is dishonest and sneaky. Having used Dryyve for 5 years now, I'm unlikely to ever use them again. Even if their prices are lower initially, they're dishonest and unsafe. "

" Couldn't use the Auto Europe as we got changed extra by DRYYVE anyway "
" We were charged an additional 30euros a day as they didnt accept our credit card so had to purchase additional insurance. We booked an SUV but she said she upgraded us to an automatic. When we got to the car it was a saloon car which wasn't great in the snow which is what we needed it for. We had limited miles plus were charged additional money when we took it back for 'cleaning' although it was clean on the inside. The people at the drop off service said this was the only company who charge for this. So our 90euro car ended up being an additional £250 on top "

" Again I am very happy with Auto Europe. The only downside was the Avis counterstaff in Vienna and getting Avis UK to deal with my query when raised by email straight away. They said they could only deal with it when the invoice arrived after the rental. Even now they are not denying my claim that the clerk was wrong but saying I signed the agreement. Let's see what happens. "
" I am in dispute with Avis over their cross border charge. Contrary to their website, the counter staff insisted I had to pay a cross border charge for the whole 8 days of the rental not just the one designated day that I had indicated. He would not check with Avis that he was correct. I also noticed that on the agreement that the car was shown as Red not Grey and that the record mileage was very much more than shown on the agreement. However the registration number was correct. It was so dark in the garage that it was impossible to check all the damage marked. The car also tumed out to be a plug in hybrid although the agreement only mentioned petrol. On the return at Vienna Airport these days, there is a single return place irrespective of the rental company. You are told just to leave the keys in the car and go. There is no role for the customer to play in checking , mileage, fuel or condition. In the event, when the invoice came later by email, all seemed fine for all 3 - even though the mileage was now over 30,000 kms than shown on the outgoing agreement! "

" The fact the damage waiver insurance was with Auto Europe and not Dryyve left us feeling we would get caught between 2 companies if a claim had arisen! "
" The main problem for scoring low, was the several issues with the car. 1, it wasn't handed over totally full of fuel 2, there was significantly more damage than the rental record showed and we only received this later by email, so couldn't complain at the time. 3, possibly due the the rear wheel arch damage, the car tyre pressure sensor kept telling us the tyre pressures were low. Had to check them every day. 4, car vibrated heavily between 110 and 130km/Hr possibly from poor wheel balance. We therefore lost confidence in the car but could only contact Dryyve by email which took 48 hrs to respond. On the plus side, you acknowledged our damage and fuel level photos and hand back of the car was easy and return of our 500euro deposit almost immediate. Our concern throughout the holiday was that we would have arguments on return as to what damage was original and what we may have done. Particularly as we had the Auto Europe insurance waiver and not the Dryyve full damage insurance waiver. "

" Auto Europe were good and the customer service is very helpful and efficient. "
" It is the first time ever (I hire a car twice a year) that I had a bit of trouble with the excess insurance. The Dryve representative tried to persuade me that I need excess insurance which wasn't included as it didn't show on the voucher. I guess it would have been helpful to have that on the voucher. Only after phoning the Auto Europe UK (who were very helpful) they confirmed that the excess was definitely included in the fee) could I tell the agent to just leave it. Also they were not helpful with all information including the car papers (which I eventually found behind the mirror flap) etc. , it took me one hour to get to drive the car. The damage markings were not accurate either. The car was o.k. but not great. I have used U Save before but this time it was not good. "

" The overall experience was so bad, I argued the USave agent for more than 30 mins and I didnt get what I already ordered and they confirmed. The U Save are so bad. "
" I ordered suzuki S-Cross, then I asked them for upgrading to Citeroen C4 grand Picasso. The U-save company confirmed the upgrade and we agreed about the additional payment of 145 euro. When I arrived to ghe airport and took the car, they changed the additional paymnet to 550 euro without any reason. So, I didnt agree to pay this amount and took the Suzuki Scross. Second issue occured with me, the car was not ready and we waited about 30mins in the parking until the car arrived. Third issue happend with me, wben I took the car the agent didn't write any damage or scratch in the report. When I returned the car, they found small scratch in tge tier and they reported that I caused this scartch. However, this didnt happen with me. I told them tgat this was before I rented the car but they didn't listen to me and seng me damage report of 100 euro for fixing and 100 euro for administration. They are so bad with me. And they took from me 200 euro by wrong. "

" I have nothing but good things to say about the staff at the counter in the Airport, unfortunately the Roadside assistance company left me high and dry in a very dangerous position on the side of the road for 4hrs. "
" Unfortunately, I ran over something in the road which cut both tyres on one side of the car. When I called the Roadside assistance line and requested recovery I was told to contact the manufacturer of the car and request a warranty call. This made no sense and the Roadside Assistance helpline wouldn't help in any other way despite me telling them that this was not a warranty issue. In short, I was left stranded in the middle of Austria with no help. In the end, I had to walk to a number of local tyre garages (in the very hot sunshine) in order to get two new tyres at my own cost. Not, happy at all. "

" I have always had good service through Autoeuropa and Sixt, so this was a surprise. I would be nice if we were told in advance that this car was not available. We clearly indicated the car was for 5 people which is a full car with luggage. "
" I specifically booked a minivan category vehicle because we were 5 people, including 2 tall men with luggage. At Sixt, they didnt have the car that I booked and gave us another much smaller which they regarded as an upgrade. I had to tell them it was not suitable and they blamed the problem on Autoeurope category being different to theirs. This wasn't true.. In the end they tried to help get a bigger car for us but we ended up paying for an Audi A6 combiner's which wasn't much bigger and still a tight squeeze for us. At least they tried but we expected to get the car we booked, and that I had researched to make sure it was big enough with potential of a 7 seater. This different category business they fobbed us off with was not acceptable. "

When I arrived at Buchbinder they offered me a Transit van, I was shocked and declined. The only other automatic car they had was an Opel Safira - a markedly inferior car to the bmw that I had booked. On questioning the Buchbinder rep. stated that these were the only automatic cars they had. I accepted the Safira under sufferance, it had done nearly 50,000 kilometers, had no satnav and was generally unsatisfactory. I got in touch with both yourselves and Buchbinder, you informed me that I might be able to swap cars the next week in Salzburg. On contacting Buchbinder in Salzburg, they informed me that they did not stock automatic BMW or Ford Focus at any of their branches in Austria. I was therefore lumbered with a gas guzzling, unattractive taxicab, rather than the neat , economic sedan that I had ordered. I am unhappy with both you and Buchbinder, and feel that I was conned. "

The cross border charges are a rip off with full insurance cover. Cars from another country used to go into those countries should have full use of the countries road network and customers should not have to make additional payments. I am really angry about these 'hidden' cost and will never use auto europe again. It amounts to theft in my opinion. "

" A few miles out of Vienna airport after the pickup the tyre pressure light came on and indicated low pressure of front wheels - this needed immediate attention which I could have done without. At drop off 4 days later a scratch was pointed out to me which I am unsure how it got there, though I know it was not present when I picked up the car. The 2 men dealing with drop off on November 1st were unfriendly and intimidating, explained that I needed to come and sign paperwork (which I did) and that I would be receiving an email on Monday 4th to say if I would be charged or not and that if I had not heard anything by Tuesday 5th I would not be charged. I did not receive any email - and have not to date but realised only today, 9th November that a I was charged a large sum £634 - in my opinion excessive considering the small scratch - it is my intention to follow this up further.

" My number of my flight from London to Vienna changed by one digit (from VK4053 to VK6050) after I had booked the vehicle and I didn't notify the rental company about that, simply because I forgot that I had given them the flight number at the time of booking. My flight had an hour delay and since the flight number was not exactly the same they didn't wait for me and was left without a car late night. I booked a hotel and when I came for the car the next Morning I was shocked to find out that my car had already been given out to someone else and they didn't have any other car left. To be fair, eventually they "managed" to find a car for us at the same price but they did it as if they were doing a favour. All of this shows me complete lack of professionalism on their end and I would not recommend this rental company to anybody nor would I use them again. They should be aware of flights and their numbers, it's not so difficult to figure out that it's Vueling coming from London. Also they should not give out cars straight away the next Morning, they should wait at least a few hours, totally unacceptable. "

" To cut a long story short. I was double sold extra insurance for the vehicle and the costing break down isn't accurate on both websites either. Also, the customer service representatives I've spoken to on the phone didn't understand my point and weren't very helpful. The line cut off for whatever reason and no-one called me back. I hope that I can resolve this issue easily as I will not be letting double payment slip through the net. When I booked through Auto Europe online through a comparison site I didn't even get an email confirmation!! That's terrible. I'm just lucky I took a picture of the end screen with the voucher number. Also there was no communication between Auto Europe and Budget as to the details of my booking. It's 2019 and this should never happen, it's really not that hard guys. Furthermore, up selling at the counter by making me feel like I'm not properly covered by the extra insurance I already paid for is not professional and is fraudulent. If a financial adviser did this they would be in trouble with the Financial conduct Authority. "

" I specifically booked a car hire with a desk within the terminal building (which was stated on my booking confirmation) as we have a young family and wanted it to be a hassle free experience.

We went down to the main rental area where I asked one of the other companies who told me it was outside in the return drop off area. I left my family in the terminal and walked outside to find the desk. Ironically, I then at to come back into the terminal and pickup the car from the top floor of the car park we had already visited. In addition while collecting the keys and sorting the paperwork the USAVE agent tried charging me an additional fee for local taxes. I challenged this but he was insistent. Eventually he conceded and apologised having reviewed my paperwork but he said he would be getting in contact with Auto Europe as he didn't think it was right. So overall it was not a good experience. You advertise the desk as being in the terminal which it clearly isn't. "

I have written to them twice since as they were supposed to send me photographs and other documentation that I would need to claim this excess amount back, but they have neither sent me the documents and photos promised, nor replied to my emails so far.

" When I booked the car on the option of providing the flight number it says it's optional, I didn't fill it in and my flight was delayed along with every other flight that day because of a storm. I was a few hours delayed and was told my car had been sold. I find that very hard to believe as all the flights had been delayed. There should be a warning saying if the flight number is not given there's a chance your car could be sold if you're late. I had to upgrade to a more expensive car as very surprisingly there was a car but hey...it's more expensive....what a surprise! I had to basically pay double my rental. I will never ever use auto Europe, rentalcars or global again. I always use enterprise and have never ever experienced anything like that off them. It smells of a scam and very opportunistic.

" Please please do not offer rentals from Global or the 2 other inexpensive car rental companies, MegaDrive and Buchbinder that are all shown together on their rental agreement. "
" The problem was not the car which was OK, it was the attitude of the company to the renter. It is their policy, told to me by the person on the desk who rented the car to me. If there is the slightest scratch on the car then they will charge you the full 800 Euros - unless you take their insurance. I photographed the car comprehensively having found a dozen scratches and dents on the car that were not on the rental agreement. I emailed them all to Global and had no problem on car return. However the guy in front of me was charged the full 800 Euros for a tiny scratch that he swore that he had not caused. "

" Arrived to pick the vehicle up and they wanted a hefty 1100Euro's deposit. Much more than the paperwork suggested. Or we could take out additional insurance and an upgrade for 160 and then it come down to 400. Also I have been charged approx £220 and I've not yet had any correspondence on what this was for. I think it is the 160 upgrade and then a bit of fuel as I returned it about 1/8 tank from the top. This does not compute with the £60ish remainder after the upgrade though? "

I'm yet to see what they achieve with recovering the monies taken from my credit card by Global for the so called 'repairs' to minor damage I did not cause to the rental car. A true test of their value will be the outcome of my complaint against Global I've lodged through them. "
" Be warned, this company is running a scam to charge customers for damage to cars not previously recorded. This happened to me and despite my protests I'm being charged for damage to the underside of the front spoiler of the hire car which had not been registered on the paperwork. Global expect me to have crawled on my hands and knees to seek such damage prior to accepting the car. This is totally unreasonable and unfair. When returning the car the agent checking the car deliberately went looking for such damage which was some minor scratches to the underside of the front spoiler which were not visible unless you got down on the floor. I emailed Global to protest as I knew I had not caused the damage. Regardless of my protest Global have taken 630 euros from my credit card following an email from them justifying their actions but there's been no recognition of my protest and argument. Suffice to say, I have instructed my credit card company to register a formal dispute with Global and I've also requested Auto Europe carry out an investigation as the reservation was made through them. The whole episode with Global has been very one side and despicable. Stay clear of this company, you have been warned! "

In Vienna I was offered additional cover for 20 euros per day. I explained that I had bought the additional cover in the UK for £11 per day.

" The advice on your documentation was inadequate, stating that the pick-up desk was in the Arrivals Hall at Vienna Airport. This was not the case. It is actually some distance away in a quite separate building above the multi-level car park. There were no signs to this in the Arrivals Hall and only appeared shortly before the entrance to this. I had to enquire as to its location from a taxi driver. I had a similar experience last year at Pisa Airport with a car I booked with your service. This matter needs urgent attention, with more specific information included in your documentation. It makes an already stressful arrival activity even more so. Otherwise, I was pleased with the car and will use your services again. "
" The cars they use have a foreign registration and the manual in the car is in czech language? I needed to look something up, and could not. I think they are also cheeky with how they structure their fees as the amount of risk when not taking 100% cover is 800 Euro which is exorbitant. "
