Top Tips for Renting a Luxury Car in Albany
- The capital of New York, Albany, is a fantastic city to explore whether you are on a weekend trip, business visit, or week-long vacation. And there is no better way to experience the best of Albany than by renting a luxury car. Albany is home to iconic attractions like Governor Nelson A. Rockefeller Empire State Plaza, the Corning Tower, and the USS Slater. Nature lovers can visit the 136-acre Washington Park and enjoy the park’s beautiful clusters of tulips. If you are lucky, you may get a glimpse of one of the numerous parades or festivals that are routinely held in the park.
- Start your stay in Albany by finding and booking your luxury car before touching down at Albany International Airport. Book your luxury car from uxury rental cars in Albany through KAYAK. Car reservation counters at Albany International Airport are located at the arrival terminal’s baggage claim area. To get the best deal on your Albany luxury car rental, you may want to consider booking your car several months or weeks ahead as most car rental companies offer discounts for early bookers.

Pros:
Staff remained professional and friendly in poor working conditionsCons:
Leave the pick up inside the airport and have someone deliver the cars to the door or have a golf cart to take the customer out to the car, it is very difficult dragging all your luggage out to a garage not knowing where your going. A handicapped person (me) will not do it again because I have bad legs and was so sore and tired when I finally got in the car I should not have been driving especially a car I’m not used to. And no there was nobody around to offer help just a sign saying go outside where our staff is working in a dark dingy shack !10.0 Wonderful

Car had obviously not been cleaned or sanitized since previous person rented it. Nothing vacuumed or wiped down, garbage still in it. These things are a must, especially in today’s environment.

Mar 2017
Pros:
The car worked well. The staff were nice and made pick up and drop off easy.Cons:
There were a lot of charges beyond the advertised daily price that were either disproportionately high or didn't make sense. Dropping a car off at a different location results in a $130+ fee (this is if you tell enterprise before hand. It is probably higher if you don't). It was cheaper for me to rent from Thursday to Monday than from Saturday to Monday.'6.8 Okay
Mar 2017
Pros:
I liked the final price and the choice of car.Cons:
The pickup location listed on the itinerary was not the pickup location. It was the Enterprise gated lot where the inventory is kept, a mile away. The literal hike back to where I knew the Enterprise booth was at the airport (at a completely different address than was listed on my itinerary), was a complete waste of my time. I have had to take shuttles about a mile away from the airport in different locations to pickup rental cars in the past, so the initial directions taking me past the airport did not seem out of the ordinary for pickup at first. Once finally at the counter, the sales rep tried to tell me the insurance I could opt for at $9/day was $14/day. I had it right on the paper print out but he acted "surprised." I am smart enough to know that this was an attempted upsell. I am also aware that you do not even need this insurance, so I asked him to forget it all together. Then I was told that the car rate was going up because of this. Which annoys me. 1.) Because my rate was booked independent of the insurance I hadn't opted into yet, and 2.) Because this was Saturday morning. I was taking a car off his hands for the weekend that would otherwise badly affect his numbers. I almost cancelled all together because of this until miraculously I rented an upgraded car for a discounted rate (that was still an upsell for him) after explaining I know how this works. Way too much BS to go through especially when surrounded by other car rental services in the airport who are also trying to get rid of cars over the weekend. The lines at the other desks were the sole reason I rented with Enterprise.10.0 Wonderful

Pros:
Car was well equipped with blind spot detection, especially useful driving in Boston.Cons:
I had reserved a sedan but only SUVs and Mini-vans were available. When I said that I would not drive one of those types of vehicles, I was told that I would have to wait about half an hour. When I said that I would wait, within one minute a sedan was available. Interesting! This is similar to being seated at the worst table in a restaurant when there are no other people there. Is this common practice?9.6 Wonderful

Jun 2020
Pros:
Staff at counter was friendlyCons:
--Staff at counter was unable to be reached by phone. Drove 3 1/2 hours each way (NYC --> Albany) to drop off old rental and pick up a new one, then was told at counter that I needn't have made the drive in the first place and I could've just kept the original rental. --Car smelled of cigarettes. Was told to just write down the issue on my rental agreement. --Staff at counter was unable to be reached by phone a second time (and I called over 20 times). This became an issue when I had to extend my new rental. --Toll-free customer service was completely useless when I contacted them to voice my concerns. --In a word, Avis = terrible. I've been an Enterprise customer for 12 years, and I'm kicking myself for using Avis this time.4.4 Mediocre
