Comfort and convenience at the best price
Bookingauto (Frankfurt) strives to make your car rental experience as simple and convenient as possible. This also applies to the location of rental points. Our clients can pick up cars in the most popular places, whether it be the city centre, airport, or main railway station. The list of our pick-up locations is extensive, meaning that visitors who book cars with us in Frankfurt can always collect them from the most suitable place.
Options and possibilities:
We take into account the preferences of our customers and look for a car that fits into the right category. For example, those who come to Frankfurt on their own or with a small company can rent a spectacular convertible Mini Couper Cabrio from us, starting at €41 per day and rented out by the popular company sixt in Frankfurt. For those of you who arrive with your whole family or friends, a roomy and reliable minivan Opel Zafira might be best - from €58 per day. For anyone who loves comfort and doesn’t have limited funds, budget recommends opting for a business class car like Audi A6 for €62 per day. For those travelling on a budget, rent a compact model Ford Focus for just €23 per day.
Select the exact date and time for picking up and returning the car:
If you want to save money, choose the same pick-up and return time. Car rental companies charge for a full day of rent, so if you rent a car for 25 hours, you pay for 48 hours (two full days), and 73 hours would be equivalent to four full days of rent.

How the cost changes in Frankfurt
The highest demand for car rental in Frankfurt occurs during the high tourist season - summer.
On average, the cost increases by 20-30% and the choice of available cars is also significantly reduced if you don’t book in advance.
For example, in July, the average price for the popular model VW Passat in Frankfurt is €46 per day.
In autumn, the same car costs about €12 per day.
In the summer, prices for convertibles are especially high. As a guideline, a Mini Couper Cabrio will cost €41 per day for the duration of the vacation period.
Among budget models, the most demanded in Frankfurt is the Ford Focus. The sixt company rents it out for €23 per day.
Business class car rental in high season is also more expensive. For example, renting a Audi A6 costs about €62 per day.
With the arrival of autumn, demand gradually decreases and this is reflected in costs. For example, a Ford Escape at this time can be rented for just €30 per day.
Fans of exclusive car models also find it easier to fulfill their requests in the autumn months. For example, in Frankfurt, you can easily rent a BMW X6 to travel in style through the streets of the beautiful city. Rest assured that the memories of these drives will linger in your imagination for a long time.
