KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Burien

  • Driving car rentals in Burien is a fantastic way to see this city on the western shores of Washington State, just outside Seattle. More convenient and faster than public transportation, Burien car rentals will allow you to keep your appointments, visit friends and family, and see the local sites, such as Seahurst Park, the Hydroplane and Race Boat Museum, and the Aviation Pavilion. Car rentals in Burien will give you the freedom to drive north to Vancouver, south to Portland, or east to Spokane.
  • Situated less than 5 miles southeast of Burien, the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) makes an ideal location for securing car rentals in Burien. In order to access the rental car facility at SeaTac, go to either end of the arrivals curb. You can catch the free shuttle bus to the rental car facility at the stop near Alaska Airlines or the stop near the international airlines. The shuttles run frequently, 24/7, 365 days a year. After you return your Burien car rental to the rental car facility, the shuttle can take you back to the terminal.
  • For those driving car rentals in Burien, keep an eye out for pedestrians, especially in the downtown area, where people walk, shop, talk, and gather for frequent festivals. Cycling is also quite popular in Burien, so remember to share the road with people on bicycles and always give them the right of way. Because Burien is in the Seattle metropolitan area, traffic can get congested, especially during peak rush hours of 7 am to 9 am and from 4 pm to 6 pm.
  • As Burien is situated in the Pacific Northwest, it gets a lot of rain. For those driving car rentals in Burien, remember two important things: visibility is reduced in the rain, and it takes longer to stop when roads are wet. Therefore, drive carefully and cautiously, always leaving more room on the road between you and the other vehicles. If you should run across any downed power lines in a storm, remember to never drive over power lines. If any section of the roadway is flooded, don't drive through it, since you don't know how deep it is or what is under the water.
  • 25% of our users found rental cars in Burien for $35 or less
  • Premium rental cars in Burien are around 67% cheaper than other car types, on average

The car was fine with good gas mileage. However, the gas tank was half full when I entered the car and them filling it added unnecessary time and hassle to my pick up experience. Totally avoidable and lame.

New Corola, Toyota. If you are not familiar with car make and model features. You need to ask them to show you how things work...steering wheel controls and other premium model items. Also have $300-$500 available credit on you card that you use for rental.

The desk said, “there are cars but they aren’t ready.” They have a vague timeline, 15-20 minutes, but since there were so many people sitting and waiting for cars before me, I gave up and went to other counters until I found a car ready.

Couldn’t Rent rhe car and my card got charged twice .. very very poor experience Kayak and appears there are so many intermediaries that no one actually cares about the customer .. utter rubbish! I have to follow up and chase my money and eventually booked directly with Avis .. not going to use your platform ever again. It’s all a joke! And I am sure no one who actually cares will do anything about it so not sure why you do these surveys and waste time !!!

Prepaid, booked in advance, showed up and there were no cars for anyone in the entire SeaTac area. I understand this is standard industry practice but it almost forced me to cancel my plans to attend the wedding for which I flew in. Had to book on a carsharing app instead. I did receive a full refund but what I wanted was a dang car.

I paid in advance, but when I arrived at Hertz in Seattle, they had no cars available! This put my family and I in a very bad situation and we ended up paying more than double the original cost to rent from another company. No one from Hertz nor Kayak has returned my calls for a refund. Very displeased with my experience and will never use Kayak nor Hertz again if this is not resolved very soon.

I don’t set the bar very high for car rental experiences, but this was the worst I’ve ever had. I waited almost an hour and a half for my car with only three others in line. The issue was that Hertz removed chip readers from their card scanners. They were blaming multiple credit card declines on each customers. I almost was not able to rent my vehicle because of an issue with their card readers. I was not the only customer with this issue. I was offered (and paid for) one vehicle, and once everything was closed out they had me wait for my car. Finally, they pulled up with a different vehicle entirely. This was an unacceptable experience. Everyone in the location was friendly, but frankly brain dead.

Hertz didn’t have the vehicle I reserved and wouldn’t honor Kayak’s price. They down sold me to a lower class and doubled the booking fee just to let me have a car.

Cons:

They told me they didn’t have a car. They tried to charge me more money. And then they tried to give me a cargo van instead of a car. The place was filthy. The reservation did not say they closed at 5:30 nor that (according to them) I only had a 60 minute window to pick up the car.
