Good website. Booked with yourselves

Good website. Booked with yourselves thrice. First and last (this time) were fantastic. The second time was with AVIS and I found them derogatory and incompetent. But that is their issue not yours. Won't book with them but Europcar was far more compotent.

Location information for Madrid

Madrid is the capital of Spain, with a rich cultural heritage and loads of world-class attractions that cover the spectrum. Tourists flock to the city each year for its interesting historic sights, museums and vibrant nightlife. Major hire car companies are located around the city, but to secure the cheapest deal you should compare car hire options online and make a booking as early as possible.

Transport

[transport]

Tourists can reach the city via the Madrid Barajas International Airport, from which it is possible to get to your destination by train, metro or bus. However if you want to travel outside the city limits it is better to have your own vehicle. Car hire in Madrid from the airport can start paying for itself right away as the terminal is about 12kms from the city centre.

Car Hire Madrid

With a car rental in Madrid you can reach a range of locations outside the city such as Avila, Chinchon or El Escorial. Vehicles can be arranged through international and local companies such as Europcar, Avis and Hertz. With a variety of vehicles to choose from, there are options to suit everyone from families and groups of friends to solo business travellers.

Driving

Traffic travels on the right side of the road and overtakes on the left. It is prohibited to talk on a mobile phone while you are driving and don't park where there is a yellow line. The city is connected to a major motorway network that includes the M30 and M40. The A-1 connects the city to outlying destinations such as Burgos, Vitoria and San Sebastian.

Things To See and Do

Famous attractions within the capital include the Plaza de Colon, Plaza de la Villa and Puerta del Sol. If you have your own vehicle, however, it is possible to reach nearby attractions such as Alcala de Henares, a UNESCO World Heritage site. This historic learning centre was first opened in 1499 and gained fame during the Renaissance. Another site outside the city is Aranjuez where you can dine in style at market restaurants and see the Palacio Real.

Best Time To Visit

Spring and autumn are the best times to visit the capital of Spain as there are fewer crowds during these seasons. During August, many of the local residents go to their holiday homes and many restaurants are shut during this period. There are festivals throughout the year, such as the Feast of St James on the 25th July and All Saints' Day on the 1st November, which are good reasons to plan a visit. January is the coldest month, when temperatures can drop to just 2°C.

What most people want to know

The following questions and answers are a selection of the most popular questions. If you do not find the answer to your question, have a look at the Frequently Asked Questions page or contact us.

Is 121CarHire.com the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

 What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

 Are there any additional costs?

In general, our rates are all-inclusive. Should there be any additional costs, our booking department will get in touch with you before issuing the invoice. Should you object, you can always cancel your reservation with no obligations attached (at least 48 hours in advance).

What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

 What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.

 How can I change or cancel my reservation?

You can cancel your reservation through "My Account". We recommend contacting us by phone if your changes to your booking or cancellation takes place at short notice (48 hours or less).

 When will I get a confirmation of my booking?

Most reservations will receive confirmation within minutes after payment takes place. We recommend contacting our Booking Department for last minute reservations (pick-up within 48 hours).
