Top tips for hiring a car at Greater Rochester Airport

  • A car rental at Rochester Greater Rochester International Airport (ROC) is the quickest and easiest way to get into the city. Driving, you can be in downtown Rochester from the airport in just 15 minutes. Although you can catch the Rochester Transit Service from the airport, depending on your destination, you might have to switch buses. This means having to move all of your luggage from one bus to another. Additionally, if you're traveling outside of the tourist season, there are some areas of the city that the buses do not go to such as the Seabreeze neighborhood. In your Rochester Greater Rochester International Airport rental car, you can go anywhere and at any time.
  • You have a wide selection of car rental companies to choose from at Rochester Greater Rochester International Airport. This includes Budget, Hertz, Enterprise, Avis, and Dollar. The car rental desks are conveniently located on the ground floor of the terminal. They are adjacent to the baggage claim area. Alamo, however, is off-site. The rental cars are kept in the Ground Transportation Building of the airport. This is a separate building from the main terminal so you'll have to go there to get your car. However, it is a short, 5-minute walk away.
  • To enjoy a Rochester Greater Rochester International Airport car rental, you'll need a valid driver's license. Additionally, you'll need to show the credit card that you used to book your car rental reservation. If you're not from the United States, you will be asked to show your passport and possibly your travel itinerary.
  • Rochester Greater Rochester International Airport is a mid-size airport with three runways, a main terminal, and twenty-two gates. It can, therefore, get busy at times. The busiest days at the Rochester Greater Rochester International Airport are early in the week on Sunday and Monday, and later during the week on Thursday and Friday. If you plan to travel on these days, you might book a pick-up time for your rental car at a less busy time such as from 8 am - 10 am, noon to 4 pm, or after 6 pm.
  • Book your car hire at Greater Rochester Airport at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

Give yourself plenty of time so you're not rushing to catch your flight.

I booked reservation for June 28-Aug. 3, 2024. When I got car, I was told that Budget only would book for a maximum of 30 days and that I would have to make another booking for the last week. When I went online to do so, prices were considerably higher than when I made initial booking. I therefore went to another agency that was cheaper for that week. This was far less than convenient. Had I known this upfront, I would probably booked with another agency to begin with.

The price was very good. It did take a long time for them to get a vehicle that matched what I had ordered. The Nissan Rouge ran well, but I had to put air in the tires, the key fob had a low battery, and the car didn't look completely cleaned as some things were left over from the previous users. The car windshield had a slight chip in it. I took some photos, as I don't wish to be charged for something that was on the car when I received the car.

The Nissan Rogue is a keeper. When traveling cross country from NY to MN, I hit a patch of rough winter weather. This vehicle performed beautifully and the Rochester Hertz gave it to me as an upgrade; so thankful for that. The one recommendation to Hertz that I would make: in addition to providing the street address for the Hertz counter associated with both pick-up and drop-off, provide the customer with additional information such as "at the airport, inside the terminal, near arrivals." Despite possessing an intimate familiarity with the MN location, I had difficulty locating the counter.

Friendly fast staff. Car was great except for one glaring issue that wasn’t the car’s fault, see below.

Cons:

Someone smoked a carton of cigarettes in this car and attempted to cover it up with Axe Body Spray. I learned of this when I started my seven hour trip to DC. I coughed and sneezed for the first hour until the cilia in my throat, mouth, and nose got enough of a coating to stop reacting. My face acquired a greasy film that required vigorous washing upon my arrival in DC. The car was awesome, but that smoke was terrible.

At airport, no shuttle to off site rental car place. Called 1-800 # customer service to have them get a hold of somebody at offsite Alamo for a shuttle. Customer service agent did call the offsite place and said nobody was answering left a message with my contact # for them to get a hold of me and I still, to this day, Never received a call. It’s been 4 days.

The manager when we picked up the vehicle was extremely helpful. He personally got our vehicle, warmed it up as it was 16 degrees and loaded our luggage for us. He really went above to assist us.

Cons:

Alamo needs to correct their automated answering messages as they do not direct customers correctly. Was not able to get to a real person, messages sent you in a circle and then disconnects.

Cons:

So many unexplained added fees. The number they give you on the reservation is at least $180 less than what they will charge you. The staff did not seem to know what was happening. I went to pick up the car and the guy had no answer for any of my questions and took forever. He also pulled down his mask and told me a profanity laced story. The car smelled weird and was not clean. Someone probably spent all of 2 minutes cleaning this thing. Smudges all over the mirrors and windows. Crumbs in the crevices. Overall I had a terrible experience with the company.
