Sixt Car Rental in Cologne

This beautiful city is a must-visit for those who want to experience the vibrant, cosmopolitan side of Germany. The famous Cathedral should be your first stop. After you've admired this stunning monument, head over to the Belgian Quarter to sample some delicious local cuisine and have a quick browse through the many boutiques. The Roman-German Museum and the Wallraf-Richartz Museum are also only a short drive away, with both housing an extraordinary collection of art and historical artefacts. Or for something different, take a short drive to the nearby Chocolate Museum. The Hohenzollern Bridge is also a spectacular place to admire the Rhine of Germany, with plenty of cafes lining the banks of the river. Bruhl, Dusseldorf and the Netherlands are also only an easy road trip away.

Best car rental experience.

I was a bit worried as I read some negative reviews here in Google. But I was a lucky customer bcoz my overall experience with them was fine, this month in December. The branch was easy to find, pick up was smooth, and car conditions was good. Final bill was ok (not too out of my expectation). Based on this experience, I will likely return if there is another similar trip here.

Recently returned my car rental (pickup in Munich) here after a 2 week road trip through Germany. Drop off was prompt and efficient, a quick check followed by digital signoff and final invoice with deposit reversal was instant. Please note the return location is the shared parking garage with Hilton in the narrow street behind the hotel. Very convenient location in the heart if the city.
