KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Hatfield
- When you get a car hire in Hatfield, you will get more flexibility compared to if you travel using a different mode of transport like a taxi, bus or train. This is due to the fact that you can depart at a time that’s suitable for you, rather than having to wait for public transport schedules or taxis. For instance, if you want to drive to Watford, you can do so in around 25min. However, if you were to travel by train, it takes in excess of 1 hour and it also requires multiple changes.
- Luton International Airport (LTN) provides you with a range of car hire companies, such as Enterprise and SIXT, so it won’t be hard to get your dream vehicle. You can locate your car hire easily upon arrival too. For instance, when hiring a car with SIXT, you will be given a phone number to contact them when you get to the arrivals hall. They will then meet you outside the front of the building and take you on a shuttle bus to the nearby branch.
- When you get a car hire in Hatfield, it’s clear to see that the town is popular with tourists who are interested in the local history. For this reason, the town centre can get very busy, especially on weekends. You should therefore take care when driving in the centre, as many people cross the roads at points which are not designated pedestrian crossings. There are also a lot of cyclists in the UK, with Hatfield being no different. So when you’re driving, be sure to regularly look at your mirrors, especially if you’re at a roundabout or if you’re turning.
- When you get your Hatfield car hire you will realise that the town can be bustling during the weekday rush hour, when lots of people are driving to and from London for work. The busier times tend to be from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. If you want to avoid traffic on the roads, it’s suggested you don’t drive during these times. The B6426 is one road that can get very busy, as it passes through the town centre and also connects to the A1 motorway. Unless there is no other choice, it’s recommended that you find an alternative road for travel.
- Book your car hire in Hatfield at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Compact hire cars in Hatfield are around 64% cheaper than other car types, on average
