Location information for Manchester

Introduction

Manchester likes to present itself as the second city of the United Kingdom, although Birmingham has a larger population. But, say the residents (Mancunians), Manchester has a richer history and has contributed more to England and the world (industry, music and sports). Anyway, Manchester is a fun destination for a short city trip. The city has a great cultural diversity (there is a Chinatown, a Curry Mile (Indian) and a Gay Village. You can see Manchester's rich past from its historic buildings, the industrial heritage and many interesting museums.

Population

The city has a population of 460,000, but in the Greater Manchester agglomeration live more than 2.5 million people.

Location

Manchester is also known as the capital of northern England. The city is located in the northwest of England, at about the same distance from Liverpool as Leeds. The city center is on the eastern bank of the river Irwell. To the north and east of the city lie the Pennine Hills. Mersey River flows south of the center.

Economy

Manchester once was an important industrial city, but those days are long gone. Nowadays, the majority of the labor force is employed in the service industry. Financial services (banks, insurance companies) are dominant. Furthermore, the city is an important center for education, it has two large universities.

Airports

The airport is located 17 kilometers southwest of the city center and is easily accessible by rental car. Manchester Airport is right next to motorway M56 (exit 5) which connects to the Manchester ring (M60, exit 4). The exit to the airport and the way to the terminals are clearly indicated.

Public Transport

Manchester has excellent public transport, which consists of a dense network of trams and buses. Metrolink is a network of trams with three lines. Furthermore, there are more than fifty bus lines. The Metroshuttle buses are free and run between the business districts of Manchester.

Traffic and Parking

Manchester is a busy city and it can be difficult to find your way in a rental car. A tip: if you get lost, follow the signs to the inner ring road. From there you will probably reach your destination more easily. Finding a parking space for your rental car can be difficult and parking in the center is also very expensive. The cheapest options to park your rental car are the parking facilities of Salford Central Station, behind Piccadilly Station and across the street from the cathedral. Please note that a double yellow line along the curb means that it is prohibited to park there!

Hotels

There is a huge range of accommodation in Manchester: from luxury five star hotels to simple guesthouses and bed & breakfasts. The tourist office at St Peter’s Square can help you finding an accommodation that suits you. If you have a specific hotel or district in mind, then we recommend you to book your hotel well in advance.

What most people want to know

The following questions and answers are a selection of the most popular questions. If you do not find the answer to your question, have a look at the Frequently Asked Questions page or contact us.

Is EasyTerra Car Rental the cheapest?

Yes, we offer a guarantee of the lowest price - because we compare various retailers, we can always offer you the best price in town.

What do I need to do when picking up a car?

To pick up your car, you will need your voucher, passport, driver's license and a credit card. It is very important that your driver's license and credit card are in the same name as the main driver. Keep in mind that the local rental company will reserve a certain amount on your credit card as a deposit. This requires the PIN code for your credit card. If your driver's license is foreign (for example, in Chinese), you must bring a translation with you. Only your original passport and driver's license will be accepted - a copy is not sufficient.

Are there any additional costs?

Our rates are all-inclusive. Our reservation department will inform you in advance should additional costs apply. You can always cancel your booking free of charge if you do not agree (this must be done at least 48 hours prior to the start of the car hire period).

What kind of insurance is applicable to my car rental?

In general, Liability Insurance, Fire Insurance, All-Risks Insurance and Theft Insurance are included in the cost of your rental car.

What is a worry-free label?

Only rental companies with a high level of customer satisfaction are eligible to be included in our Worry-Free selection. This rate includes excess cover and unlimited kilometres. Your vehicle will be provided and must be returned with a full tank of fuel. With a vehicle from our Worry-Free selection, you can travel with peace of mind and no hidden costs.

How can I change or cancel my reservation?

You can cancel your reservation through "My Account". We recommend contacting us by phone if your changes to your booking or cancellation takes place at short notice (48 hours or less).

When will I get a confirmation of my booking?

Most reservations will receive confirmation within minutes after payment takes place. We recommend contacting our Booking Department for last minute reservations (pick-up within 48 hours).
