Wonderful customer service

Wonderful customer service. The lady who completed the process was friendly, helpful and professional. We couldn't fault this process in any way. The vehicle was clean and in excellent condition and the drop off process was easy and quick

Everything Went Very Smoothly

Everything went very smoothly from car rental order to car return. All Sixt staff involved were warm, friendly and efficient. We also got a free upgrade to a much better car than we had ordered. Top service!

Great service at Dublin Airport.

Great service at Dublin Airport.
After being disgusted with service of another car hire company earlier this year, it was great for this recent experience with Sixt. Reserved car a few months prior (wanted manual SUV) and this is exactly what I got. Keys were there waiting for me in an envelope when I arrived at the desk. Really polite, pleasant member of staff.
On returning the vehicle (lunchtime) there were plenty of staff there waiting for returns to come in - vehicle checked over straight away and signed off.
Holding deposit (due to no extra insurance) was released within a week of return.
All good, will be using this firm again on my next trip.

5 star car hire

I had a fantastic experience collecting my car in Dublin. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted by incredibly friendly and positive staff member by the name of Igor, who went above and beyond to make the process smooth. To my surprise, they even upgraded me complimentary to a nicer car, which was such a thoughtful touch.
The car itself was perfect for exploring Ireland — comfortable, reliable, and a joy to drive. It truly made travelling around the country with my fiancée an unforgettable experience, giving us the freedom to see so much more than we could have otherwise.
When it came time to return the car, the drop-off process was just as impressive — quick, efficient, and stress-free. It allowed me to get on with the rest of my day without any hassle.
Overall, I couldn’t recommend this service highly enough. From start to finish, it was professional, kind, and exceeded my expectations.

completely satisfied.

Fast service, very friendly counter staff who give you clear explanations. They think along with you, but don't push you to choose a more attractive package.
The reserved car was no longer available, but we were immediately offered an upgrade at the same rate, which was perfectly fine.
The cars are not located at the airport, but at a site a little further away. Great service to take you there by shuttle bus. Returning the car was also easy, quick and handled correctly. Conclusion: Very satisfied.

A seamless and efficient service

A seamless and efficient service. The car was exactly as we ordered and the collection process was so quick and easy, as was the return. There's no hard sell of add-ons, just an explanation of what's available and the choice is entirely yours. Sixt really have their act together at Dublin Airport and I would recommend. Thank you

Car hire as it shoud be

I was really impressed. Pick up was easy, drop off was easy, staff were friendly and helpful and the car was fine. This is just how care hire should be. Came across as a very well organised set up with good customer focus.

SiXT is an amazing company!

SiXT is an amazing company! I have experience communicating with different agents at Dublin Airport, T1, as I have been there twice. I do not speak English perfectly, but this did not become an obstacle to determining my goals for the car. Agents kindly communicate through Google translator.
I would like to separately thank the agent Alex - a friendly, sociable, quick to work man! Quickly made an application for a car, with all my wishes. Explained all the details and took me to the bus. Alex is a professional in his field! Special thanks to him for the location on the seashore!

Great company to deal with

We collected our rental at Cork airport. The young man on the desk was really helpful and very friendly. The car was easy to locate. Return was easy peasy too. What's not to like ?
