The online booking process was easy, pick up was also relatively straightforward and drop off also very quick. The vehicle I received was almost brand new and worked brilliantly for the long drive we had to undertake. If you are looking for hiring van or car this is not a bad option in Munich. Located a short walking distance from the Ostbahnhof station it's easy to get to as well on public transport.

We rented a car in Munich. It was black and not cleaned, and already this seemed dodgy. We tried to…read moreascertain the damages according to the enclosed damage report, but we soon realised that this was an impossible task. I did make a walkaround movie of the car though. When I returned the car it was in the evening and in a dark garage, so I foolishly didn't make another movie. However, I inspected the car visually for scratches and did not notice anything that drew my attention. A few days after the return of the car I got a damage report with blurry photos showing HUGE scratches on the rear bumper. I googled and realised through the huge number of negative posts that Sixt receive that scams are used as standard unethical operating procedures to generate revenue. So: always take an added insurance to prevent this, OR take photos of the car in full daylight before returning it.

If you're planning personal travel in Europe, especially crossing borders, understand the risk…read morebefore renting with SIXT. I rented a vehicle in Munich, selected cross-border authorization, and independently purchased a valid Austrian digital vignette before entering Austria. The vignette confirmation shows activation on 24.01.2026 at 14:22. The alleged toll event cited by SIXT occurred on 25.01.2026 at 13:44 -- clearly within the active validity period. Despite complying with the regulations and providing timestamped proof showing the vehicle was covered, SIXT charged me €200 for a substitute toll weeks later. When I submitted the documentation, their written response was that they "do not check whether the fine is legit or not and act according to the information provided by the relevant authority." Let that sink in: you can follow the rules, pay for the required toll coverage, provide clear documentation -- and the company will not even evaluate whether the charge is legitimate before passing it through to you. As a foreign traveler in a regulatory system you're not native to, you reasonably expect the rental company -- as the registered owner of the vehicle -- to review documentation and assist when something appears incorrect. Instead, the burden was pushed entirely back onto me. If you're renting for tourism and crossing borders, be aware: post-rental penalties may be processed automatically, and documentation may not be meaningfully reviewed. Based on this experience, I would not recommend SIXT for cross-border travel in Europe. Transparency matters. Compliance should matter. Customer advocacy should matter.
