Cons:
I reserved a car for $109. In Barcelona airport at 5 am sixt was the only car rental available, and they knew it. They told me my only option was to pay 180 because they didn’t have any economy cars left. I had no option and felt kinda depressed at how deceptive the world has become. How a giant corporation can take surcharge advantageAvis

Cons:
At the check-in I was informed that as the rental was done via a USA based agency and that I was using an EU based credit card and drivers licence , that I was Absolutely OBLIGED to take their full insurance... otherwise the rental would not be honored. This despite I already have a good policy with both my own car and via my gold credit card. The insurance was more than the rental. I feel lied to by Kayak , Europcar, and whatever middle-man you sub-contracted via.10.0 Wonderful

We paid for a mustang convertible or similar but when we got there they considered a fiat 500 comparable. Then there only Other option was a VW bug convertible, in our minds going on a costal vacation and paying for an upgrade neither of those cars compared. Very unfortunate and put a damper on our trip7.2 Good
Oct 2016
Pros:
Friendliness of staff.Cons:
There are two terminals at BCN and I had reserved at #1, but picked up at #2. They told me they didn't have any small cars like I wanted. I could have gone back to terminal #1 and gotten the original car, buty ended up with a much larger and more expensive car. They should coordinate between the two terminals. They didn't inspect the exterior of the car when I picked up, but did when i returned it. This could have been a problem though it wasn't.3.6 Poor

Pros:

Trying to sell this company everything. They don't go with you to check the car. They tell you the car don't have scratch and when you go to check the car have some scratches also they tell you where the car is park and you don't see the car is park in different place. They charge you for everythingOk Mobility

Cons:
Pickup was in Barcelona Airport. The price per day that you book via Kayak does not include a bonus fee (for me it was an airport tax + 25 euros = 28 euros) for rentals. Additionally, I returned and a difficult-to-see dent in the side of the car was blamed on me. It was so small and difficult to see that I cannot say whether it was there when I rented the car. I am now in legal proceedings with them over the issue.One location in Barcelona-El Prat Airport

Cons:
booked With ACE all insurance included. Upon Arrival Goldcar Barcelona, tells us, that they do not accept the terms and conditions negotiated by ACE and that ACE has no cars and that we have to accept their conditions otherwise there is no car. I have had an exchange with priceline on this issue - to no avail. It is for me not acceptable that I'm not aware that the subcontractor of ACE (in this case Goldcar) does not accept the conditions of ACE. Goldcar has been condemned for this business practice in Italy, but not yet in Spain. ACE should stop working with Goldcar or make it clearer to the customer, that the contract via internet will not be honoured upon arrival and that more costs are to be expected.2.0 Poor

On the spot, when added insurance price was 2.2x more than initially communicated Car given was not the one reserved,but Hyundai that had some strange features that caused flat battery and left us without the car for half a day ( of course when most needed) Emergency service from Hertz that was the actual provider behind the Dollar, acted very slowly and fairly unprofessionally. End result was waiting for 3 hours in the garage for them to come with cables and start the engine. At that time they gave us instructions that should be initially communicated.One location in Barcelona-El Prat Airport

Jul 2017
Cons:
I planned to rent a car to take a day drip to an area near Barcelona. The e-mail I received said that I could pick up the car at the Barcelona airport. I went to the airport, but there was no Economy Rent a Car at the airport. Note that I had to pay for the airport shuttle to get to the airport. Airport information had never heard of Economy Rent a Car. I did a Google search for Economy Rent a Car, and found a location off site near the airport. I again paid to transportation to this area. After walking around for approx 45 minutes, it was clear that Economy Rent a Car did not exist. I eventually found a location that does business with Economy. They looked up the reservation, but it had not yet processed. So, I wouldn´t be able to get a car for another 45 minutes, at least. Since this was only going to be a day trip and I had already spent almost 2 hours searching for the car, I cancelled the reservation. The experience caused me to waste a day in Barcelona. I am hesitant to use your service again, since you work with unreliable companies.8.8 Very good
Apr 2017
Pros:
Staff was super helpful and quick to get me out the door and check back in. Car was spotless and smelled great. This Fiat drove smooth and handled the mountain roads very well. I had a wonderful 3 days driving around Catalonia.Cons:
1. I was advised to pay for insurance online when booking so I did. When I showed up they said I had to buy insurance or they would have to put a hold on my creditcard for the Max allowed. I think only 1 of the insurances should have been needed but it seems like that unclear system is in place to maximize profits. 2. Finding this place was very difficult. My booking was through Economy Car Rental. Everyone told me there was no such thing at the Barcelona airport. I finally figured out (from a shuttle bus driver) that it was probably AutoClick and off airport grounds. This type of info could have been so dam simple to relay to me in an email with the confirmation booking. A little map maybe showing me where pickup was as well as the name change. If it was in my email I sure did not find it.2.0 Poor
Feb 2017
Pros:
Nothing. Shuttle never came to pick me up and I never got car. Tried to call many times, both local Barcelona number foe Autoclick car rental which was supposed to fulfill reservation, and US customer service for Economy. No one answered in Spain!Cons:
Everything. Never got picked up and never to rental car. A complete mess and failure!2.0 Poor

Top tips for renting a car at Barcelona-El Prat airport
- Barcelona-El Prat Airport car hire is a good idea for those travellers who are not staying directly in the city centre, as some surrounding areas are not serviced by the metro system. Or for travellers looking to explore the country at your own pace, then booking car hire at Barcelona-El Prat Airport should be your first activity on arrival.
- Car rental is much cheaper in Spain than in many other parts of the world, which is great news for us travellers. Keep in mind though to always be sure to read all the terms and conditions of your booking before you confirm to avoid any hidden costs.
- Remember to confirm your pickup and drop-off times with the rental company on completion of your booking. And be sure to allow yourself at least an hour and 30min from the time you land to your pickup time. Most people underestimate how long it takes to get from your flight through passport control, collect your luggage and arrive at the car rental desk. When you are dropping your car off allow yourself at least two hours before your drop-off time; driving in a new area can be confusing and you might get lost, or not be familiar with the amount of traffic for that time. Late drop-off penalties are often charged for car hire at Barcelona-El Prat Airport so leave yourself plenty of extra time for anything that might come up.
- When collecting your vehicle at Barcelona-El Prat Airport you must have valid original proof of identification, your driver’s licence and a credit card for your security deposit. Be sure to go through the basic insurance coverage and ask any questions you are unsure of to be confident you know what you are covered for and what you are not. If you are unhappy with your coverage, the representative will be able to offer you a breakdown of what additional coverage is available, however, it is not a fun activity to be doing after a long flight. We recommend having a look at the KAYAK website beforehand and making a pre-booking which will also allow you to custom your coverage before arrival.
- 25% of our users found rental cars at Barcelona-El Prat airport for ₪147 or less
- Book your rental car at Barcelona-El Prat airport at least 2 days before your trip in order to get a below-average price
