KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Rome

  • Renting cheap car rentals in Rome gives you the freedom to explore the city on your own terms and schedule. You can visit popular attractions like the Chieftains Museum, Rome Area History Museum, and Etowah Indian Mounds at your own pace without any time constraints. Moreover, you do not have to worry about public transportation schedules or ride-sharing apps while visiting smaller towns nearby. Using Rome car rentals can also be a cost-effective option for larger groups or families.
  • Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson Airport (ATL) is approximately 70 miles away from Rome, Georgia. All rental car companies are located in a central Rental Car Center (RCC), accessible via the SkyTrain from all terminals. The SkyTrain is free and runs 24/7. Reservations car rentals in Rome can be made in advance or at the RCC. If you plan to pick up Rome car rentals at Huntsville International Airport (HSV), the rental car facilities are located on the ground floor of the parking deck, adjacent to the terminal. The airport provides a complimentary shuttle service to and from the rental car facility.
  • Driving Rome car rentals is relatively easy and straightforward. However, it is essential to be aware of some unique rules and driving styles to avoid any issues while driving cheap car rentals in Rome. Although bicycles are not prevalent as a primary means of transport, they are allowed on the roads. Cyclists in Rome, Georgia have the same rights and responsibilities as motor vehicles. Motorists should be cautious around cyclists and allow a safe distance when overtaking. The most common vehicles on the roads of Rome are small cars and pick-up trucks.
  • Rush hour in Rome is typically between 7:00 am - 9:00 am and 4:30 pm - 6:00 pm on weekdays.

Spring and summer months can bring heavy rains, which can result in flooding or standing water on some roads.

  • What type of car is recommended for driving a car rental in Rome?

    A Small or mid-sized car with good maneuverability and decent fuel economy would be recommended for a Rome car rental. The roads and terrain in the area are mostly flat and not too congested, so a car with good acceleration would be beneficial for merging onto highways and navigating intersections. Additionally, a car with a good suspension system would be useful for navigating the potholes that are present in many urban areas.

  • What’s the speed limit in Rome?

    In residential areas in Rome, the speed limit is typically 25 mph. In school zones and near playgrounds, the speed limit drops to 15-20 mph. In downtown areas, the speed limit is 15-30 mph depending on the road. On rural roads and highways, the speed limit increases to 55-65 mph. It is important for drivers to pay attention to speed limit signs and adjust their speed accordingly to ensure the safety of pedestrians and fellow drivers on the road.

  • Where are the best places to park Rome car rentals?

    The best places to park cheap car rentals in Rome depend on the context and what you’re planning to do. If you’re visiting the city center, plan to pay for parking, as many parking spaces are metered or require payment at nearby kiosks. The cost for on-street parking is typically an hourly rate, with a two-hour maximum time limit. Paid lots and garages may charge a flat fee, depending on the location and time of day. Some areas outside of the downtown core offer free public parking, including Heritage Park, Jackson Hill, and several public lots located on First Avenue.

Car hire insurance in Rome

Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) & Theft Protection Waiver

Some Rome car providers already include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Protection Waiver into the hire price but not all of them. We recommend being aware of your coverage when hiring a car in Rome.

Deductible

Keep in mind that car hire insurances often have a deductible clause, which is the amount you’ll have to pay if something happens during the time of your hire. If you want to avoid unwanted surprises, you should consider adding a non-deductible option to your Rome car hire.
