Customer Ratings and Latest Reviews
Because we want to make sure each review listed here is left by a real customer, we don’t have the option to post a review here. Instead, we ask each and every customer to leave a review after they return their rental car. This way, you know that all reviews are authentic.

Cons: Nothing. I've used them many times before and it's a great experience.

Cons: The agent at the desk was hard to understand and unfortunately acted in a condescending way when I asked questions - made me feel stupid and I ended up just agreeing to things to stop the humiliation.
Pros: Very helpful and even giving us an upgrade
Pros: They didn't have the class of car I had reserved available and agent sorted me with a better one at no additional cost

Pros: Professional staff
Cons: Time taken

Pros: Easy to drop off the car
Pros: The agent was knowledgeable about the agency insurance and extra options as well as the region with helpful parking tips
Cons: Friendly and respectful
Cons: Waiting period at pickup period and for the bus.
Cons: The service at the airport.
Pros: The guy at the pick up park was friendly as was the guy at the drop off point.
Cons: The bullshit cockiness of the initial contact in the office. He wouldn’t take no for an answer and I was accused of being over tired. I’m a 49 year old man who does not need to be spoken to like that. As I have already stated I will never use Sixt again for the rest of my living days.
Pros: Super helpful agent, ease of finding the rental counter, and good availablity
Cons: Pick up speed still quite long. And when car was handed over, still have warning signal on tire needs to be inflated.
Pros: The agents were polite and nice, the car was exactly the size and with the options we pre-booked
Cons: I had a problem with my credit card and only had my debit card with me, whereas my friend had hers. They refused to change the name of the main driver to hers, or to let me use her card to pay (even though she was travelling with me!!), and I ended up paying for so-called insurance that allowed me to pay with my debit card. I was also charged for 6 days’ worth of border crossings with my car (even though I’d only made 1), and in the end, my hire cost me 2.2 times more than what I’d booked online
Pros: I always like sixt cars as are more quality
Cons: Maybe need to be quicker the pick up process as it took me one hour and is not discounted from your rental days, also maybe more cars in the terminal to be given instead of doing one queue to pick up and then after taken the shuttle do other one to have the car.
Pros: Very helpful and speedy
Cons: All good
Pros: Not a great deal......agent spoke extremely quickly, rushed through everything like ot was a script he had to follow. He gave me option to "upgrade" to a "better" GPS system for a daily fee, which didn't actually work properly in the car! He was very interested in pushing himself for a good review at the end of our conversation! The car itself slipped out of gear regularly, warning bells all the time re speeding due to miles/km conversion, seatbelts when already being worn, GPS useless!!
Cons: Agent spoke too quickly and seemed annoyed when I asked questions.
Pros: Igor was very efficient and knowledgeable when I picked up the car. Ricardo, was really busy returning a long line of vehicles but he was friendly, kind, very efficient and extremely helpful. Thanks Richard and Igor. Also thanks to the lovely lady in the office who helped me with a return time error.

Pros: Very professional agents at both pickup and return. Pickup agent explained all conditions very well.
Cons: The car steered a little odd, so I checked the pressures and one new tyre had been fitted to RHFwith pressure of 37 psi and all the others were 27 psi. The wiper blades were very noisy and vibrated across the screen. Quite annoying in the rain in Ireland.
Pros: Not much
Cons: Car not very clean. Scratches on car not marked. Key battery low for 25% of trip - worrying - no extra battery in car. 25 minute wait to take us to car pick up. Caddy equivalent ( Davis) had no luggage space ( we were 6)
Pros: All staff,especially Mr.KENNEDY who helpfully and well service mind.
Cons: No.
Pros: Nothing .
Cons: Crap
Pros: Agent was very helpfull
Cons: The fact I have to wait so long for my deposit back
Pros: Nothing, very poor
Cons: Did not explain the minor damage on the car beforehand. When I questioned the damage on the car before driving away, the onus was put on me to identify all the damage. I was told I had signed off the minor damage and I was never shown it. Had to call manager to complain and get it resolved before taking the car. This took one hour
Pros: Big Queue, only 2 staff on during busy time
Cons: Absolutely awful car to drive, gear box felt like it was going to fall out, no sat nav had to use phone, no volume on radio driver only had control when they are meant to be driving.
Pros: Nothing
Cons: Already noted
Pros: Great treat! From the folks at the airport desk, to the counter at pickup, and the folks working the return. Stellar!
Pros: Liked everything. Nothing to fault
Cons: Nothing to dislike
Cons: I picked the car up with full petrol tank. This was 7 bars on the dash. Turns out full was 8. I didn't take a photo before I drove off. On returning I filled full just before dropping off. The dash was showing 7, same as when I picked up. I even pulled the nozzle out slightly to get tank as full as possible. When I dropped off the Sixt member said it wasn't full and I was going to be charged more than €30 as I did not return full. They said they would check when they refuelled so I'll see.
Pros: Awesome
Cons: Right from pick up at Dublin Airport Terminal 2 Alex was friendly and most accommodating and very helpfl
Pros: Excellent, efficient and highly professional. Car very good and key locker system on pick up is a real benefit
Pros: Not much
Cons: After service was non-existent
Pros: They were good
Cons: Every thing sound
Pros: Counter service at the airport
Cons: Slight delay on handing the car to me
Pros: Upgrade naar een grotere auto. Maar toen die te groot bleek was het eenvoudig om de auto om te wisselen naar een kleinere. Telefonische ondersteuning accuraat en vriendelijk.
Cons: Onduidelijkheid over de betaling. Pas een week na het inleveren werd het bedrag op mijn creditcard afgeschreven; het werd niet eerder gereserveerd waardoor onduidelijkheid ontstond.
Pros: Very easy return process and fast.
Cons: It took 45 minutes to get my car because something was wrong and they had to keep running other cars through the car wash. They said they upgraded me, but I didnt think so. The car had several weird things about it also. But in the end it served it's purpose.
Cons: Did not take the time to listen to my questions, and took my Discover Car info and did not return when asked.
Pros: Pick up and speed of drop off
Cons: None
Pros: A lovely young lady who helped us very quickly and easily, followed by a young man at the counter who was also very polite and smiled as he explained and showed us where our car was parked.
Pros: Nothing really!!
Cons: Not a thing. Staff don’t help just give you an email address.

Pros: Quick efficient
Cons: Returned the car at Shannon airport with full fuel tank picture attached. Summary shows 7/8 full,please rectify
Pros: Fast and easy to find

Cons: The fuel charge was 4 times over what you'd pay at a regular station, ridiculous.
Pros: They waited for me outside the normal hours, my plane was late
Cons: The airport shuttle from Sixt took more than 30 min, the driver was "on break"..
Pros: Drop off was very easy.
Cons: Our experience at the pick-up desk was unpleasant. We were asked numerous times whether we wanted to take out additional insurance and when I explained I took out the discovercars option that already covers it all, the agent told me 'they say they cover it, but they don't', to try to convince me that I should pay for extra.
Pros: Sixt would not accept my Discover Cars coverage nor give me written notice that they wouldn’t. I had to pay for coverage again at pickup.
Cons: I was severely overcharged as my “prepaid” coverage was not accepted.

Pros: Friendly and helpful
Cons: Made everything clear and understandable
Pros: The agent was very helpful.
Cons: SIXT doesn’t accept Revolut credit cards and I didn’t know until I went to collect it! Ultimately I had to use my home-based credit card and that was extra cost. The car whilst new, lacked many modern features, it was without rain sensors, mph markings on the Speedo, now sensors on front or back? Very basic to be honest.
Cons: Not so clean inside and outside the car
Pros: We felt trapped into taking extra insurance
Cons: Felt trapped into taking extra insurance
Pros: Honest and friendly service
Cons: Car was not in terminal as promised, had to argue for some time for them to agree to they way I had booked. Kept being told that I should book direct and not through discover cars. But sixt has no way to request a pickup in dublin airport terminal....
Pros: Fantastic staff, unexpected upgrade, nice price!
Pros: Not much, I am very particular about vehicles rented and this service did not meet my expectations.
Cons: As above,
Pros: Almost everything good

Pros: Friendly staff, helpful and transparent, efficient
Cons: Car had existing scratches and was not the most clean
Pros: As smooth as it can be
Pros: The car was in top condition. Agent was very helpful. Everything was super about Sixt.
Cons: We had to double pay the insurance again despite taking the most comprehensive one from discovery.
Cons: They have tried to charge me extra fee twice, that weren't reserved or used.
Pros: Simplicity
Cons: Child seat quality. Packages for self pay on insurance could be offered with better transparency
Pros: As above
Cons: We were told that the tolls in Dublin were covered however we got charged for them.
Cons: Each car should come with a guide to what the console controls do.
Pros: They did not accept the extra insurance we bought from you. We ended up buying extra coverage. Extra cost. The car was not the same level as we hired this was not matching to what was in your site we even choose to pay from sixt to pay a little more to get an small upgrade but we got the same thing. The car was useful. Not clean . Whipper were full of grease making it difficult to see . Overall evaluation of discovery and sixt bad not planning to use either again there is a huge gap on what sold
Cons: Very bad customer service is awful. Car delivery awfully. Bullied to buy more insurance. Don't listen to customer. Bad attitude. I would go to Avis or hertz next time
Pros: Extremely helpful staff
Cons: Having to transfer by bus to collect and return the car, would be nice to collect direct from the airport terminal
Pros: Everything flowed well . Check in staff particularly iwona who did the main paperwork were brilliant
Cons: Always extra cost
Pros: Quick and easy. Instructions made simple to follow and the car was clean and up to date

Pros: The driver was friendly and respectful to all customers. The booking and collecting staff were very helpful.

Cons: The car desperately needed an alignment. It was difficult to drive as a result
Pros: I had a minor parking lot incident and SIXT staff was helpful and responsive in helping me resolve it with 3rd party insurance coverage.
Cons: The windshield wipers on the car needed to be replaced. They gave me a free upgrade to a larger car. I wish I would have kept the smaller car. Driving on narrow roads of Ireland in a wider SUV versus a Sedan was not fun.
Pros: Streamlined efficient process
Cons: Upsell for windshield and tire coverage as well as damaged caused by someone hiting us would be out of our pocket and then we would have to get reimbursed from home and go through whatever process from home country. Just want to pre-purchase insurance to cover all perils without the **** upsell or anything out of pocket.
Pros: Staff are very helpful and a pleasure to deal with car was very clean and no problems
Pros: The two gentleman at Shannon airport who helped us get car #4 were the bright spot in an otherwise terrible experience with the car company.
Cons: Sixt car rental has terribly maintained cars. We spent 2 hours at Dublin airport before getting a car that worked. The first car had a broken off back windshield wiper. The second car had malfunction and warning lights flashing and wouldn’t start. Car # 3 out of the lot worked for 3 days and then broke down in Killarney. We had to call emergency services on 2 separate days and finally were told we had to drive to Shannon airport (2 hours out of our way) to pick up car # 4.
Pros: He made us feel at ease about driving in Ireland for the first time. Very friendly personality. I believe his name was Sebastian.
Cons: Nothing comes to mind.
Pros: Everything
Cons: Nothing
Pros: The car itself
Cons: Rental agent did not answer questions well. No one could tell us how to use the GPS system we rented. We asked 3 people and the only answer we received was “turn it on and connect to WiFi.” When dropping off the car, I asked for a final receipt and no one gave me one. The person helping me just kept pointing to the area where I could pick up the shuttle. It took 5 days after I dropped the car off to get a final bill.
Pros: Very friendly staff
Cons: There is a shuttle service to the car pick up point. Wait time for the bus was to long.
Pros: Quick easy process to drop the car
Cons: Car was in good condition, windows slightly dirty

Pros: Serietà chiarezza ottimo servizio e qualità/prezzo In passato ho noleggiato con altre compagnie (HERTZ,AVIS), era la po' rina volta e mi sono trovato bene.
Cons: Per ora nulla
Pros: Efficient, clear communications
Pros: It was awful the first can we were given was damaged. When I went back in the office I was asked have you ever hired a car in Ireland.
Cons: When taking the car back I was told it was ok and asked to sign. I have just looked at the report and he is saying the side mirror is damaged. My mother was with me when he said the car ok . Not a honest company. I hope you will sort out the problem

Pros: none
Cons: mal maintenace of cars two cars (first one and the alternate were both error signal came out) and changing car due to out-of order took 4 hours and ruined our trip there should be some compensation for users due to this mal maintenace of cars
Pros: Ray, our agent, was excellent. He was patient, helpful, gave great information, and overall helped make the process really smooth.
Pros: Relacion con el personal y eficiencia en la entrega y devolución.
Cons: Vehículo con aviso para comprobar nivel de aceite y presión de neumáticos.
Pros: Clear communication, and great service. Mr. Cullen who helped at the front desk was a delight to deal with.
Cons: The front desk had a long lineup, but I think a few flights had landed at the same time and it was out of the staff's control.
Pros: Easy drop off when return and confirmed in good condition.
Pros: Service desk assistant (Sebastian) was great at pick up.
Cons: Car was ordered with GPS but I was given a card without it. When challenged they provided a standalone GOS unit. This was not at all useful and was in fact DANGEROUS, giving directions contrary to traffic rules (like turning down pedestrian streets!

Pros: Friendly. Helped get larger car.
Cons: Gave us directions to return car at passenger drop off which was wrong. Spent an extra 25 minutes to get to car return.
Pros: Clerk was friendly and efficient.
Cons: That they tried to see us additional insurance. They also provided us with a qwerky car that had very a very specific starting sequence to get it past standby mode, which was totally foreign to us. It also went into standby if you idled too long. Twice we were stranded mid-street when the car would not engage in drive. Once we read the manual and learned to correct sequence we had no further issues.
Pros: They made it clear they had nothing to do with discover cars. If I wanted to change my booking I needed to pay full and request a refund from discover cars.
Pros: Quick efficient professional and friendly
Cons: The car was a bit banged up when I took possession of it it ran and drove well but I think I was it last trip cosmetically! I just worried if I’d be charged for the damage even though it was already there
Pros: I enjoyed the entire process. It was very professional efficient and we got a beautiful car to drive.
Pros: Really nice staff and great car

Cons: Great trip with a really nice car
Pros: Prompt and polite service from all staff members
Pros: Clear and easy during pick up.
Cons: a little trouble with my license
Pros: The rental agents at picking up and dropping off have been very kind and respectful. Sometimes you get pushy ones that have no other interest than upsell you new things, it wasn't the case, they showed genuine interest in making sure our car was in top shape for the trip and easy to drop off at the end of it.
Cons: price they charged for fuel
Pros: I was not given a car by sixt and needed to book with exactly double the amount on spot. still my money is stuck with discover cars.
Cons: I was not given a car by sixt and needed to book with exactly double the amount on spot. still my money is stuck with discover cars.
Pros: Very efficient and courteous service at both pick-up and drop off
Cons: Polite, courteous and efficient
Pros: Logistically everything went well.
Cons: A couple of weeks after returning the car, we were charged for a dent that was already there at pickup. The communication with SIXT went smoothly and the charge was reimbursed immediately, however this created quite some effort on our side and it only worked out as we could prove via photos taken at pick-up that we didn't cause the dent.
Pros: There were 3 service counters opened for SIXT, which is plenty
Pros: Refused car read below
Pros: Courtesy and professionalism of the service representative
Pros: We got a good car at a reasonable price. I would use them again.
Cons: Even though I know I had purchased full insurance coverage through Discover cars, I ended up buying Sixts coverage anyway. I didn’t want to have to do the hassle of claim reimbursement through Discover. Driving in Ireland was very difficult and I wanted the peace of mind of having the extra coverage. Had I been in any other country where one drives on the right side of the road, I would have not taken Sixts insurance.
Pros: Quick and friendly
Cons: The car was not completely clean inside or out.
Pros: The return was the only efficient part of the entire experience.
Cons: The service personnel at the pickup were terrible. Took a half hour to get through the pickup after over an hour in a lineup. Made me miss an event that was booked with what would normally be plenty of time.
Pros: Drop off was quick and efficient. Liked gas choice of returning empty
Cons: I waited for 70 min to pick it up!
Pros: easy to return
Cons: systems were down when we arrived and spent an hour in line
Cons: The booked car was not available. Very expensive for insurance.
Pros: They were polite but hard to reach. Answering machines only. No instructions on the features of the car. We had to refer to the owners's manuel.
Cons: Not reacheable by phone. Took us 1 h and a half driving around the airport to find the return site. Instructions not clear enough. An answering machine was not helping at all.
Pros: The staff at the service desk were extremely knowledgeable, helpful and a delight to deal with.
Pros: Easy drop off- very quick. Car was great- VW. Had no issues with the car. Fitted 2 suitcases in the boot. Very economical- we only filled up 3 times doing over 3,000kms.
Cons: We had to wait a little at the airport to pick up as there were a few people lined up.
Pros: Turning in the car
Cons: The rental desk was chaotic, I felt like I was high-pressured upsold re insurance, the agent was difficult to understand.
Pros: Great service at the PU desk
Cons: Cost of GPS (did not accept)
Pros: Friendly and efficient
Cons: Nothing
Pros: Sixt very good wtaff
Pros: I was in interaction with 4 different people - customer support, registration check-in, handover person 1, handover person 2. All of them were kind and very helpful and nice. The customer-service via email was very quick and very helpful, I give them the best rank. The car was in good condition, including its own GPS integrated. Car was to new for my phone, it had only USB 3 output, and contactless charging :D.
Cons: It is not that I did not like, I guess it is not fully their fault. The rented car did not have the first aid and triangle, I reported that and they brought me one right away. The car did not have a reserve wheel, it is a new practice, that you shall always call for support from the hotline. It is fine, only the pickup paper included that there should be a reserve wheel. We clarified it, so not a problem. Last, I had incorrect handover place in my invoice, again solved quickly by support.
Pros: They were friendly and quick at the desk and a the drop off
Cons: I booked a car for €352, but ended paying another €66 - and I’m still waiting for the deposit. Both without further information
Pros: Quite fast, considering that we arrived a bit earlier we waited about 15 minutes, and the car has been just cleaned.
Cons: Our agent Joe was not very nice: I'm confident in English but I had problems with his lazy and unclear speaking. Also, the key had a little issue (sheathing button a bit stuck) and he kind of made fun of it. Another agent looked for a substitute key but couldn't find (quite absurd) so he simply suggested us to never sheathe it. Lastly, the car was working fine but had a few minor issues, like a missing part of a front grille and a damaged rim, so we had to take photos and videos carefully.
Pros: Overall condition of the car
Cons: Time spent picking up the car
Pros: Friendly & efficient.
Cons: No issues
Pros: They upgraded my car for free
Cons: The airport shuttle took some time.
Pros: Thank a lot to Kristian that halp a lot with her serves.
Cons: They change the car to otomaty to help me with the drive in the other side in Ireland. It was underful
Pros: Waited in line for an hour to get my car
Cons: I ordered a car seat for my child they handed it to me at the desk and I was made to walk to the car rental area carrying a very large car seat all my luggage and my 6 month old son. On arrival I found I didn’t know how to fit this type of car seat, I asked a member of staff to help and they told me they where not allowed too a considerable amount of time with a stressed out child and a stressed out me trying to fit this damned car seat that I expected would of been put in the vehicle!
Pros: Staff were great, made me feel very welcome and were very helpful
Pros: Drop off was efficient.
Cons: Pressurised sales technique, extra insurance, upgrade and diesel. Old car, 50 000km+. Boot size not as advertised. Failure to respond to emails. No manager to speak to at sales desk.
Pros: Decent car
Cons: The ridiculous amount of money I had to pay extra on insurance because I don’t own a credit card yet my wife does, yet you wouldn’t accept it. I’ve been driving nearly forty years and have never made an insurance claim, yet I had to pay £34 per day with my rental car. That equates to more I pay annually for my car’s insurance. Absolute rip off
Pros: Professional and empathetic car rental agents. Especially Mrs Adelina.
Cons: n/a
Pros: Good conditions.
Cons: Not.
Cons: Instructions of picking up and dropping off the car
Pros: Overall Sixt were efficient and professional
Cons: Confusion over requirement to have a medical certificate as hirer over 75. Not advised prior to at time of booking. Cannot understand why there is an extra charge to use GPS and all cars should be automatic at no extra cost
Cons: Huge line to collect car, they sent us on a wild goose chase to find the pickup place. First car had a massive gash in the tyre which we had to fight hard with them that we wouldn't take it, second car had cosmetic damage to the bumper, but was at least safe to drive. Took over four hours before we were able to leave the airport.
Pros: Speed of check in
Cons: Nothing
Pros: Service especially Emma was top notch
Cons: A little rough but served it’s purpose
Pros: Check in was easy and staff was helpful. We were checked by Emma.
Cons: Car conditions were a bit below expectations
Pros: Great service agent when we were picking up the car. She recommended we take a video of the condition of the car and I'm glad we did because the agent when we were dropping off the car was looking to blame some damage on us.
Cons: I felt like the agent when we were dropping off the car was looking for an excuse to charge us for damage to the car that we didn't do. Fortunately we had a video to clear up the issue.
Pros: efficiency of the car rental agent, condition of the car, and good price
Cons: the car extern was crash
Pros: Great service
Cons: I booked a VW Tiguan or similar. At the desk they stated they were upgrading us and I ended up with a Darcia Jogger. The connectivity was average and constantly dropping out and overall feel of the vehicle was rubbish. The only upgrade was that it was 7 seats which was something I didn’t need. I also did not see one Tiguan in their lot. If they are going to advertise it they should have it and the “or similar” should be similar in quality.
Cons: would have been good to get more info about the Toll system - so a specifc regional brief for each country
Pros: Very helpful staff agents.
Cons: They did not provide the car signed up for nor did they give a newish car. It was 3 years old and had done over 80,000 kms. Interior was damp and not clean.

Pros: see above
Cons: One thing we would suggest and we think it was due to Brexit issues? Back in 2016 we were able to drive down from Donegal via A5 making a quick drive to Dublin. This time we could not do that, and did not understand the sticker on the dash. Maybe explain to customers that if they go up north, they can't get on A5 unless they pay a fee and perhaps different insurance? Anyway, we had to back track over to Sligo and then across. It was worth it of course. But also, we were clueless on that part.
Pros: The agents were friendly, helpful and efficient.
Cons: Nothing.
Pros: Easy at pick up. Not too long in line

Pros: very efficient
Cons: a bit expensive
Pros: Agent, drop off time
Cons: Long queue at the desk at the airport
Pros: they had a booking for us
Cons: oversell on insurance and disappointing upgrade to a car i would never choose to rent. I felt locked in as the car was registered for M50 toll payment and we were on a tight schedule for golf tee times and it had allready taken longer to collect the car that expected
Pros: Friendly staff, clean car at a very good price.
Pros: The folks were friendly and helpful. Made the rental car experience so easy and a pleasant part of an otherwise challenging travel experience.

Pros: Did what you were expected to do
Cons: Nothing
Pros: Meeting my budget and rental expectations with friendly staff. The upgraded car category was a bonus
Cons: None
Pros: It was all very professional. From start to finish. Great staff at rental and drop-off.
Pros: Emma was amazing. I had spent a while booking the car and somehow it defaulted to 12 noon for pick up but I arrived at 8:30am and she was able to still accommodate me. The one major problem I had was installing the car seat, while I do understand that they can’t install them it would be so helpful to have someone point out exactly how they work. When you are traveling solo with a child and trying to install a seat you’ve never laid eyes on it is probably the most irritating and frustrating thing
Cons: I’m not sure if there is a way to at least have someone point out the main functions of the car seats and then leave the installation to the parent - that would be incredibly helpful.
Pros: Fast picking up and dropping off. Shuttle provided if needed.
Cons: Wasn’t clear if Sixt was aware of all the scratches the car had.
Pros: The guy at the end was really nice and friendly
Cons: Being miss sold the GPS system and the car wasn’t really the same level as what we paid for.
Pros: Excellent customer service
Cons: N/A
Pros: Easy to find and able to collect the car from the terminal
Cons: Slow/long queue to collect the car
Pros: Very efficient service
Cons: N/a
Pros: Eva at the Sixt help desk when we picked up the car was very nice and friendly. She explained everything and gave us a piece of mind. She also gave us some tips in Ireland and we thought she was a great person to talk to after the flight. We had a great experience also at drop off with Eduard. A nice young gentleman who made the return smooth for us.
Cons: At first, we got Nissan micra which we didn’t order (paid for VW or similar) but when we said it wouldn’t work for us due to our height, all got resolved quickly and to our satisfaction. We thought this was still a great experience and would not mark this as negative.
Cons: i was not explained how/where to return car properly at 5 am, and no one around to ask. it was VERY frustrating as I nearly missed my flight.
Pros: Diago at returns was the best!
Pros: Return personnel (Tiago Correia Ribeiro) was outstanding
Cons: Car selection was limited. Would have preferred larger, automatic vehicle.

Pros: Had a few previous scrapes and small dents but recognized and documented by staff. All good
Cons: Nothing bummed me out
Pros: compassionate, courteous, patient when having difficulties with credit card in foreign country
Cons: Everything was grand, nothing I can lively state regarding the service.
Cons: I believe that making the customer responsible for finding any damage to car as it is picked up,shifts the responsibility to the renter. The two hour limit for photos is impossible for late night pick up.
Pros: Easy to find counter on terminal 2 Counter representative was very polite and helpful Got car onetime
Cons: No clear cut instructions how to return car and where ? Also no one was there to recieve car One person told me just drop key and go It's looking no one there to inspect and check condition of car
Pros: Explained the difference between what discoverers was offering and what actual SCDW is.
Pros: Easy pickup and drop off
Cons: Car had radio display in Japanese as was the navigation system. Unable to look up info as owners manual was also in Japanese. Back up camera did not work
Pros: The check in agent was very knowledgeable and explained everything to us. She was also very pleasant to deal with.
Cons: Unfortunately we missed the petrol station on our way back into the airport. A map of how to get to the gas station and then to the rental drop off location would be helpful as we didn’t have wifi/gps.
Pros: Better and easy
Cons: A bit tough if walk towards your main office at the car location. Others is fine and good.
Pros: The agent was extrememly pleasant, efficient and kind.
Cons: The agent upgraded my car so effortlessly and smoothly that I didn't notice the price difference until after the fact.
Pros: Aaron the representative who dealt with my rental, was patience personified as I hadn’t checked my credit limit on my card! He spent ages trying to help us and eventually with no help from Barclaycard we drove out of Dublin airport thank goodness, he was an absolute star ⭐️
Pros: There was over an hour wait in line before seeing an agent to get a car, not sure what was happening that day why it took so long.

Pros: Car was fine

Pros: Friendly staff.
Cons: When you book through a third party they still charge you their price on the day and not the quoted price by the company.
Cons: Length of time to get to gate after car drop off.
Cons: They aren't clear about the time to have the refound
Pros: Worked as expected
Cons: Upgraded me as they did not have the equipment available.
Pros: Efficient booking in & collection of car
Cons: Disappointed that I had to top up the ad blu. Personally think this should be maintained by the rental company.
Pros: Quick with car pick up
Cons: Did not offer to explain how the car works, such as lights, ECT. The car was cheaper and i paid a high price compared to Canada prices. Since i added 200 euro of extra insurance to skip the 3000 euro deposit
Cons: Travelers from US have to be aware that the cars in Ireland are smaller even if they list a comparable US size car. So we barely fit all our luggage in the car.
Pros: Friendly and helpful agent at pick up.
Cons: Hard to find the ‘out of hours’ drop off area.
Pros: Very easy and friendly
Pros: Staff were friendly and accommodating for my needs
Cons: Long line and wait to pick up car at specified time, delayed my departure.
Pros: They were wonderful and easy to work with, extremely friendly, and helpful! They were also very reassuring regarding being an American and having to drive on the opposite side of the road. They provided plenty of guidance and advice to ensure I would feel confident and ready to go once behind the wheel! I also greatly appreciate they were one of the few companies that allowed me to rent a car in Dublin and drop it off in Belfast. This made my trip significantly easier!
Pros: Efficient processing.
Cons: It's nice to be able to pick up/drop off the car at the airport parking lot rather than at an offsite rental car location. Unexpectedly (and frustratingly) the car's digital dashboard display and audio settings were not in English. After several days of fiddling with settings and consulting the manual, we resorted to Google to find out how to change the settings.
Cons: Lack of care of operatives at drop-off.
Pros: Good agents pretty efficient
Cons: Car was supposed to have a full tank but was only three quarters full
Pros: Professional service
Cons: It not realy Sixt its the price in Ireland for rental car
Cons: Could only use credit cards (not debit cards).
Pros: good guy on the desk
Cons: no one to show scratches to at pick up; makes people nervous that they will get blamed
Cons: The car had not been checked or serviced we spent a lot of time to find a garage for the oil see mail (says on the dash board the oil needs changing and we had to find oil and have it checked because it said on the dashboard low oil pressure) and the gps was not updated.
Pros: Quick in and out. Staff was friendly and helpful
Pros: Staff very friendly and helpful Manager used her discretion and allowed me the use of the car pending medical certification of my fitness to drive
Cons: Cost is extravagant but appreciate that this is throughout the whole industry Request that if medical certification is required for my age group (75+)this should be stated up front on the confirmation form and not buried in small print
Pros: Pleasant, efficient man at pick up.
Cons: Unable to return the gps unit, as we had car play and did not need navigation system.
Pros: It was the best price available
Cons: Why car rentals have become that much expensive? Considering to rent again if prices keep going up. It is not worth it.
Pros: Drop off was quick and easy
Cons: Took a very long time for the shuttle to get us from the airport - about 25 minutes
Pros: The desk agent at Sixt was really helpful in getting me acclimated to what driving in Ireland would be like and helpfully suggested I get a Garmin for crossing over to Northern Ireland which we did end up needing.
Pros: Friendly and professional
Cons: Renting the car took too long due to computer issues
Pros: Very energetic and welcoming staff. Knowledgeable and quick turn around time
Cons: It’s not the service provided but the cost of the rental that’s prohibitive. Good outfit, great little car which was fuel efficient and comfortable but just very expensive for an automatic compared to a manual transmission
Pros: They were very friendly and accommodating.
