I rented a car one-way from Calgary airport with a drop off in Banff. I rented the car at about noon and return the car in Banff approx. 7:00pm. I told them I’d be arriving to Banff after they closed at 6:00pm and I was told to put the keys on the drop box. It took me forever to find the parking and when I did find it. I followed the Avis return signs. Once I made about 2 turns down the parking garage, I came to a sign that said the Avis rental car return was closed and to go back up a level. I did this, I found a place to park and went upstairs and dropped the keys in the drop box. I had the car approx. 7 hours total. Today, 4 days later, I got a call from Avis asking if I still had the rental car that was supposed to be returned on the 12th. I told him all of this and I still have not heard back, I still have a huge charge on my credit card and no receipt. Absolute WORST experience!!!Reviewed Sep 16 2024

I have heard about the AVIS , the best , but i am really sorry to say if you do not have stock of cars why you take advance booking . I was standing 2 hour for getting the key how ever i requested many time but they newer had listen . I have very bad experience with AVIS , I am a business man twice a month i come from vancouver first time i took your company. but very very bad experience , you should hire the soft spoken and care taken employ for public dealing . regards.

Check-in was perfunctory, no welcome, substitute car. Car does not have navigation activated - unacceptable in a new car. Car not particularly clean. 10d into car hire screen says Maintenance required, take car to Dealer. Avis app (I’m a Preferred member) - no way to email them and ask why? Unfortunately I don’t have telephone connection to ask. Had to ask maintenance question via QEEQ (booking agent). On plus side, the Toyota has run without any issues other than the screen message. Would I use Avis again - it depends.Reviewed Aug 3 2024

• What is the best place to pick up an Avis car rental in Calgary?

  Certainly, for those travellers who are flying to Calgary, renting a car at the large facility at Calgary International Airport (YYC) is a great choice because of the convenience this location offers. If you happen to already be in the center of Calgary and then decide you want to rent a vehicle, the Avis locations you will find on 16th Ave. NW, 9th Ave. SE, and 23rd St. NE all make quite convenient choices that let travellers get a great rental car without having to make their way back to a large international airport.

• What are some of the benefits of utilizing Avis car rental in Calgary?

• What are some places to park my car rental in Calgary?

  Parking in suburban areas in the outskirts of town generally is not going to be that difficult because you usually find plenty of free on-street parking, although this can get more complicated during the winter when parking spaces may be covered by snow plows. The bigger issue is parking in the center of Calgary, where parking can be limited, and there may be a fee for parking. Fortunately, there are a large number of parking lots and garages where travellers can pay for extended stays in these locations, meaning it is quite easy to explore downtown Calgary without having to constantly come back to your vehicle to pay more money into a parking meter.
