KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Middletown

  • Car rentals in Middletown provide numerous advantages for visitors and locals alike. Having a rental car offers the freedom to explore the city's attractions, including the popular Kidcity Children's Museum and Wadsworth Falls State Park, at your own pace. Middletown is well-connected to nearby destinations like Hartford and New Haven, making it convenient to explore the region with a rental car. Unlike relying on public transport, a car rental allows for flexibility and convenience in accessing various sights and activities around the city.
  • At Bradley International Airport (BDL), major Middletown car rental companies like Hertz, Enterprise, and Avis operate in close proximity to the airport terminals. While there is no direct airport shuttle to the rental car offices, travelers can easily reach them by walking. The car rental counters are conveniently located within the airport's vicinity, ensuring quick and hassle-free access upon arrival. Passengers can follow clear signage and directions to find car rentals in Middletown offices near the airport terminals, making the process of obtaining a rental car seamless and efficient.
  • Driving in Middletown requires awareness of traffic patterns and road conditions. Keep in mind that pedestrians have the right of way at crosswalks, so always be vigilant for pedestrians and yield when necessary. Obey posted speed limits, which generally range from 25 to 40 mph in residential areas and city streets. Pay attention to school zones, where speed limits may be reduced during school hours. Middletown's downtown area can experience traffic congestion, so consider using alternative routes during peak hours.
  • Middletown experiences rush hour traffic, particularly during weekday mornings (7:00 am to 9:00 am) and evenings (4:00 pm to 6:00 pm).
