Cheap Budget Car Hire Deals at Gare Saint-Paul, Lyon

To save on refueling costs when departing from Gare Saint-Paul, look for deals with a 'full to full' tank fuel policy, or even better, a free tank fuel policy, as opposed to a 'half-full to full' one.

When renting a car, understand the fuel policy. A 'Full-to-Full' policy means you return the car with a full tank, while 'Same-to-Same' means you return it with the same level of fuel. Full-to-Full is often more cost-effective.

If you don’t find what you need at Gare Saint-Paul with Budget, you might discover more car hire options in Lyon, which can occasionally be cheaper. However, keep in mind that the additional cost of transferring from Airport to Lyon might result in higher overall expenses compared to picking up your rental car directly at the airport.

Be aware that some rental companies impose age restrictions or additional fees for drivers under 25. Make sure to check the company’s age policy when booking.

If sharing driving responsibilities, check the policies regarding additional drivers. Some companies charge fees for each extra driver, while others may include it for free under certain conditions.

When renting a car, it's crucial to understand the different insurance options available. Selecting the right insurance can protect your finances in case of an accident. Common options include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and liability insurance, so make sure to confirm the required coverage with the provider.

Most rental companies will require a credit card for the deposit, which is typically frozen in your account. Make sure to inquire about the specific deposit amount and the policy for releasing the freeze.
