KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Hamilton

  • With a car rental in Hamilton, Ohio, you have the flexibility to choose your desired routes and make spontaneous changes to your itinerary. You can easily explore nearby attractions, take scenic drives, or visit places that may be less accessible by public transportation, like Joyce Park and Pyramid Hill Sculpture Park & Museum.

You can select a vehicle that suits your needs, whether a spacious SUV for families or groups, or a compact car for solo travelers.
  • Butler County Regional Airport (HAO) is smaller, so it may not have car rental desks directly at the airport terminal. However, nearby agencies that offer car rental in Hamilton, such as Enterprise, Hertz, or Avis, typically offer pick-up and shuttle services or have off-site locations near the airport. It's recommended to check the specific details with the car rental agency you plan to use. Making a reservation in advance is advisable, especially if you have specific preferences or requirements for your rental car.
  • When driving in Hamilton, Ohio, there are a few things to look out for to ensure a safe and smooth experience.

Pedestrians have the right of way at crosswalks, and remember to give cyclists enough space as you pass them. Hamilton is located in an area with natural surroundings, so be aware of the possibility of encountering wildlife, especially in rural or suburban areas. Watch for deer crossing signs and exercise caution, particularly during dawn and dusk, when animals are more active.

Usually, road congestion occurs during weekday mornings (7:00 am to 9:00 pm) and evenings (4:00 pm to 6:00 pm) when people commute to and from work. Some of the streets that experience notorious traffic jams include Main Street (Route 4), High Street, Eaton Avenue, Millville Avenue, Pleasant Avenue, and Interstate 75.
