Hertz at Strasbourg TGV Station??

Can anyone tell me if Hertz has a location at the Strasbourg TGV rail station? We will be TGV'ing in from CDG to pick up a car.

The Hertz site states a location in the Avignon TGV station but isn't clear about Strasbourg.

Thanks.

I dont think the URL worked but I got it by using

10 A, Boulevard Metz, 67000 Strasbourg, France (the address for Hertz) and

Gare Sncf de Strasbourg

on Google maps Directions and it gave me directions from station to Hertz office. Now that presupposes that the above named station is also the TGV station and not a different station.

According to the French guidebooks I'm checking for my upcoming trip, Strasbourg has only one train station, used by both TGV and regular trains.

You exit the front of the station (Place de la Gare), you turn right and you walk for exactly 325 yards. That's what google sez. Did you google Hertz in Strasbourg? Then looked it up on the map in relation to the station? That's how.

Social Worker: When you have a long URL like that, bring up

http://www.tinyurl.com

(bookmark it!), input the long URL and you get a short manageable one. Like this:

Hi amb,

Now that you know where the Hertz office is, do you know how to get out of Strasbourg?

Thanks for the tips everyone! I couldn't find the train station address to save my life. You have certainly educated me on Google maps.

Thanks.
