I was initially hesitant about this Enterprise Rent a Car location based on the previous reviews. It's no wonder then, that I thought I had stumbled upon a different branch when I picked up a car hire.
This Enterprise is in an unassuming industrial estate in Leith close to the water. It's a bit out of the way, but the team here is more than willing to pick you up or drop you off after returning your vehicle. I typically book directly through Enterprise, but we were able to get a really good price through Priceline. I've had issues in the past with reservation details translating to a business from Priceline, but everything, including our discount code, made it to through.
This branch recently received a new manager, Peter, who is an all around stand up fellow. I've rented from Enterprise across America and Europe, and this was the quickest and most congenial check in I've experienced so far. They even allowed for me to use a card not in my name (wife's) for the reservation, which not all UK branches honour. When traveling out in the country I usually purchase the add-on insurance so that I have peace of mind in the event of a flat tyre or mechanical issue. This was added to the car without any up-selling from Peter. Once we went outside to check out the car, a Ford Fiesta, Peter made sure that I was comfortable with all of the operations and functions before we set off.
After returning the vehicle, a member of the Enterprise team dropped us off at a bus station in Leith that would connect to Edinburgh Waverley, which saved us greatly from paying for a taxi. The high level of customer service earns this Enterprise Rent-a-Car branch a highly recommended five stars! read more
