KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Hayes

  • Situated to the west of London, close enough to enjoy everything the capital has to offer whilst far enough away to earn its own leafy tranquility, the town of Hayes is perfect for hiring a car. This historic location is conveniently located for seeing a number of nearby sites, with easy links to motorways or for catching a train or flight at a nearby train station or airport. Car hire in Hayes will give you the independence to go and visit places such as the London Motor Museum (2 miles away) or Northala Fields (6 miles away).
  • Hayes makes a great choice due to its proximity not only to the British capital city of London but also to Heathrow Airport, which sits just 4 miles to the south. It is a common choice of base for business people who are frequently travelling, as they can enjoy everything the city has to offer as well as convenient transport links. When arranging your Hayes car hire through KAYAK, it is always a good idea to take into account where you want to be before and after your trip, and how you plan get there. If travelling from Heathrow Airport, make note that car hire desks can be found in Arrivals in Terminals 2, 3, 4 and 5.
  • Hayes is a reasonably quiet town, especially when compared with nearby London, so you can rest assured that driving around the area is stress-free and straightforward. Nevertheless, it is important to be aware of your surroundings at all times. Be careful when near the bustling Brunel University, for example, as the amount of students in attendance raises the number of pedestrians dramatically.
  • As a popular location for commuters, try to avoid driving at peak times such as between 7:00 and 9:00 or between 15:00 and 20:00. This will make your journey that bit easier, as you can skip the congestion that comes with rush hour and the school run. Also, Hayes enjoys close proximity to some of the country’s greatest sporting venues from the worlds of football, rugby and cricket alike. This means there is plenty to see in the area, but there is also the chance that you can get caught up in traffic if you haven’t checked the fixture list.
  • Book your rental car in Hayes at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Compact rental cars in Hayes are around 4% more expensive than other car types, on average

FAQs about renting a car in Hayes

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Hayes?

    Compacts are the most popular type of hire car for the area, allowing you to easily navigate around the urban streets and park up when necessary. If you are planning on frequently heading further afield, perhaps you could look at something slightly larger, while groups or families would do better by opting for a people carrier.

    Generally speaking, the town centre has 30mph limits but there are many streets that enforce a 20mph speed limit, such as those that are heavily residential or close to school zones. Always keep your eye out for road signs, even when travelling on major roads and motorways, as these too can often change.

  • Where are the best places to park in Hayes?

    For your car hire in Hayes, you have plenty of options for parking up your vehicle for a few hours up to the entire day.

Wouldn’t use it again. We hired a van and from our initial inspection the van 1. Wasn’t ready in time 2. had a lot more scratches than on their report which we recorded 3. Had a broken piece of wood in the back which was not noted down. Poor.

Terrible. Avoid at every cost. They claim you’ve damaged the car when you haven’t and take loads of money from your deposit. Read the guardian article about them. There is a class action against them. They should not be included on comparison websites as it reflects really badly on that website.

The rental counter experience was fine. The Citroen C3 will go on my list (with the Renault Clio) of cars to avoid. The rubbery, notchy transmission took all the fun out of driving.

2.8 Poor

Pros:

Very confusing process. Ended up paying triple of what I thought I was going to. I would suggest a more reputable brand. Might cost more on paper but not worth the headache of this rental experience.

Cons:

Shuttle to the car park. Clear terms and conditions.

Friendly and efficient staff and process. But difficult to contact after. There is no way to speak to a person. The email given was not responded to when I asked for a larger vehicle after pick up. Very frustrating.

I couldn't get a hold of the company before traveling to make amendments to the booking. I called Kayak and tried to call Ace and the name of the company was something else entirely. Kayak said to visit their kiosk when I got to Heathrow, there was no kiosk at Heathrow. No phone number would connect me to a human and in the end I showed up to pick up the time I wanted to change it to and they were very accommodating. Shame about the runabout in the lead up.
