Enterprise car hire locations in Nantes

Nantes has three Enterprise branches. You can book your rental vehicle online or by phone and collect it from the Nantes Atlantique Airport, Nantes train station or the neighbouring town of Saint-Herblain, the second most populated town in the area. It's easy to pick up a vehicle when you arrive in Nantes, whether by plane or train. Or, if you're already there, the station is in the centre of the city, while Saint-Herblain is to the west.

Close to the Atlantic Ocean and on the Loire estuary, Nantes is the historic capital of Brittany. Capital of the Loire-Atlantique department and prefecture of the Pays de la Loire region, it is the sixth largest French commune (around 600,000 inhabitants in the city). A true tourist hub, Nantes has retained its commercial dimension and is very much a dynamic city, whether you're visiting on holiday, for leisure or for any other reason.

Car rental at Nantes airport

Located in the airport, opposite the arrivals terminal, the Enterprise office is open every day: from 07:00 to 22:00 on weekdays, from 08:00 to 22:00 on Saturdays and from 09:00 to 22:30 on Sundays. If you need a rental car in Nantes to get to the city or out to the surrounding area, you can always find the vehicle you need.

What to do in Nantes

Located on the banks of the Loire, 30 miles from the Atlantic Ocean, its rich heritage makes Nantes a destination of choice. Plus, it's the doorway to a region famous for its châteaux and wines. Awarded the ministerial label "Villes et pays d'art et d'histoire" (cities and countries of art and history), it is full of architectural treasures, not least the château of the Dukes of Brittany, and has many activities on offer, including the Jardin des Plantes and the Machines de l'île attraction. However, renting a car in Nantes also makes sense if you want to explore the surrounding area, either along the Atlantic coast to the north towards Brittany or south to La Rochelle, as well as inland, to Angers, Tours or Poitiers.

Driving in Nantes?

Like many major French cities, Nantes has a loop that allows traffic to flow smoothly and avoid crossing through the city unnecessarily. With 23 exits and at over 26 miles long, it's the second-largest loop in France. At the same time, the public transport network company, TAN, offers a highly efficient system that ensures 132 million trips each year, thus reducing the number of cars in the city. All you have to do is opt for a car with GPS and you'll easily find one of the 11 car parks in the city (with a total capacity of 5,390 spaces); you'll be glad you went with Enterprise for your travel arrangements.
