Car hire - simple, easy, and affordable prices
We understand the importance of choosing the right pick-up location. With that said, Bookingauto strives to provide customers with the opportunity to collect a car from all desired locations in Geneva, including the city centre, main railway stations, and the nearest airports. Thanks to such a large selection of rental points, our clients can book a car in Geneva and pick it up at a convenient place for them.
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 Geneva on their own or with a small company can rent a spectacular convertible Renault Megane Cabrio from us, starting at €81 per day and rented out by the popular company sixt in Geneva. For those of you who arrive with your whole family or friends, a roomy and reliable minivan Ford Tourneo might be best - from €66 per day. For anyone who loves comfort and doesn’t have limited funds, budget recommends opting for a business class car like BMW 7 Series for €49 per day. For those travelling on a budget, rent a compact model Ford Focus for just €12 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.

Car rental cost by month
During the high season in summer, car rental in Geneva costs 20-30% more than at other times. For example, renting the Audi A4 popular in Geneva costs €33 per day in July. In autumn, you’d pay about €10 for the same model.
During the holidays, the demand for car rental is very high, which is reflected in both the price and the choice of available cars. Therefore, you should book in advance if possible.
Highest summer price for convertibles. For example, a Renault Megane Cabrio is offered at €81 per day.
Among budget models, the most demanded in Geneva is the Ford Focus. The sixt company rents it out for €12 per day.
Business class car rental in high season is also more expensive. For example, renting a BMW 7 Series costs about €49 per day.
With the arrival of autumn, demand gradually decreases and this is reflected in costs. For example, a VW Tiguan at this time can be rented for just €43 per day.
Fans of exclusive car models also find it easier to fulfill their requests in the autumn months. For example, in Geneva, you can easily rent a BMW X5 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.

On our website, you can cancel or change your booking in Geneva under certain terms.
The booking can be cancelled with a full refund at least 24 hours in advance (in some cases, 48 hours may be needed).
If cancelled with less than 24 hours’ notice (or 48 hours in some cases), the administration fee will be deducted from the online payment amount but the rest of the money will be returned to your bank account.
Each vendor has a different cancellation policy and administration fee for different cars. Therefore, we recommend that you carefully read the cancellation policy before booking.

These additional rules apply to all bookings:
If the online payment sum is less than the stated administration fee, there will be no refunds when cancelling your booking once the administration fee is applied.
If your booking is made less than 24 hours prior to the pick-up time (or 48 hours in some cases), a cancellation policy will be automatically applied to your booking.
Important information: To cancel a booking, please go to the “Manage My Booking” section – do not contact the rent-a-car company directly.
Insurance coverage cancellation policy:
If you purchased an additional insurance product with your car rental, the policy will be automatically ended when the booking is cancelled. To check if you are eligible for a refund, see the cancellation policy set out in the terms of your insurance product.
