KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Belmont
- Car rentals in Belmont facilitate travelers who wish to explore the city and its surroundings with ease. While public transport is available, car rentals provide the flexibility to navigate different parts of the city efficiently. Public transport schedules can be limiting with fixed schedules leading to longer travel times. With Belmont car rentals, you can enjoy visiting known attractions like Beaver Brook Reservation or historic sites like the Belmont Public Library at your convenience. Incoming visitors can also use Belmont car rentals to explore popular spots like the Wellington Elementary School or the Underwood Pool.
- If you're arriving in Belmont via Logan International Airport (BOS) in Boston, there are convenient options for car rentals. Major car rental companies like Alamo, Budget, Hertz, Avis, and Enterprise have onsite branches within the airport facility. The Car Rental Center at Boston Logan Airport is just a short ride from the Terminals. There is a free shuttle bus that takes passengers there. The shuttle bus is located at the lower level of each terminal.
- Driving in Belmont is generally safe. However, during the rainy season, certain low-lying roads like River Road and Lakeview Avenue are prone to flooding, demanding caution and route adjustments. Jaywalking can be an issue around popular tourist spots like Belmont Park, so drivers must remain alert. Sharing roads with cyclists and public transport, particularly along Broadway Avenue and Willow Lane, requires patience and adherence to traffic rules.
- Belmont experiences morning and evening rush hours, which can lead to congestion and delays on the roads. It is advisable to avoid driving car rentals in Belmont between 7 am and 9 am and again between 4:30 pm and 6:30 pm.

The best thing about my Avis experience was the people! Everyone was friendly and efficient, and personable. Pickup was quick, with no pressure for upsells. Dropoff was really fast, someone met me at my car door with a pen to take down the mileage. The car was clean, with no strong smell.2.0 Poor

Pros:
Friendly staff, very clean and fairly comfortable car for a tall driver.Cons:
Desk was hard to find - directions could have been more clear. Dropoff took far longer than it needed to because there was only one staff member to handle ~10 pickups/dropoffs at 5 pm on Sunday.8.0 Very good
Feb 2019
Pros:
The location was good and the staff was generally polite and helpful.Cons:
Their office organization is not great. We waited an oddly long time both getting the car and dropping it off. Dropping it off was a bit tedious, we had to wait behind 4-5 people getting cars when all we needed to do was hand in the paperwork, it was already paid for. Seemed unnecessary.Budget

Budget desk is in the Charles river hotel which is not difficult to find as long as you ask the hotel employee. However when we returned the car, the lady had a terrible attitude. There's a long line and it's almost closed which is not our fault but she still yelled at us9.6 Wonderful

Pros:
it was very straightforward to take public transit to this Thrifty location from Logan, for no charge and it took perhaps a half-hour which I thought fast. My car performed well and was both new and clean on the inside.2.0 Poor
Mar 2017
Cons:
They don't have any information. Their policies are waste. Their toll charges are compulsory if you don't take it they put fine on you. Thier insurance charges are ao high. Just having car charges low as compared to other companies doesn't matter overall thrifty is super expensive including all insurance toll and other services. They don't have decent cars too.
