Rental Car Pickup
 
Is it possible to have a rental car dropped off at your hotel in Orlando?

You would probably have to call your rental car company and ask.
I know Enterprise advertises that they will take the car to you.
There may be a fee involved.

Enterprise advertises that they will come pick you up, then bring you to the local office.

All the major co's also have downtown and Kissimmee locations.

Also, some rental car companies have offices right in some hotels. The extra cost for picking up a car right at the hotel is usually less than a cab fare to an airport location.

Thanks for your help! I'll check out this info.

Gosh, I can't believe what I said. I meant to post that the extra cost to rent a car at a hotel is usually MORE than the cost of a cab ride. Do NOT make a reservaton before checking all options. Sorry if I misled you!!

HS, We are renting enterprise rental car and they are picking us up from the hotel to finish the paperwork. That will be in Fort Lauderdale this week. According to the agent(in the rental office) who I called 3 times already assured me this is the norm for thier company, I'm liking that.
BTW we got a much better deal by using a rental off the airport property. We saved close to 40.00. And rental ain't cheap either.

Have heard good things about Budget and Enterprise so will look into them. Budget has a pickup not far from our hotel (I think).
Thanks again.

Have you considered inquiring as to whether or not the hotel has a rental car desk on site and if not, which rental agency has an office nearest the hotel?
