ATESA Car RentalATESA, also known as National Atesa, is one of the top three car rental companies in Spain, with a history dating back to 1949. As a pioneer in the Spanish car hire industry, ATESA has built a strong reputation for offering high-quality service and a wide range of vehicles to suit every type of customer. The company operates over 130 locations across Spain, including major airports, train stations, and key business and tourist hubs, making it a convenient choice for both locals and international travelers.
Following its privatization, ATESA became part of the Citroën group and later reached an agreement with U.S.-based National Car Rental in 1998 to operate under the name National Atesa. With a fleet of more than 25,000 vehicles—ranging from compact cars and 7-seaters to cargo vans—ATESA meets the diverse needs of its customers. The company’s commitment to modern management and diversified services supports its goal of becoming Spain’s leading car rental provider. While ATESA offers extensive coverage across Spain, travelers looking for services outside the country may need to consider alternative providers, as its operations are primarily domestic.
Whether you're booking a short city trip or planning a longer journey across Spain, ATESA combines convenience, reliability, and an extensive vehicle selection to deliver a smooth and professional car hire experience every day.

The car model was quite old and difficult to drive, and there were scratches on the car.

The service attitude was great, and the car provided was very new. The deposit refund was not timely, but the issue was resolved quickly after reporting it.

When picking up the car, we were offered to upgrade to a higher class for an additional 3 euros/day, from a Citroen C4 (95 petrol) to a Citroen C4 Picasso (diesel). The fuel cost was cheaper, and the car was in great condition, very satisfied.

We originally booked a Citroën C4, but at pickup, we were upgraded to a Peugeot 5008 with extra space, which can be converted to seven seats! We purchased full cover insurance and paid an additional 169 euros. The car was almost new and very easy to drive. We returned the car at night when the counter was closed. We filled the tank, parked in the ATESEA parking space, left the rental documents in the car, and dropped the key in a box—everything was fine. The next day, the 150 euro deposit was refunded to my credit card.

The service attitude was good and quite attentive. However, the deposit is taken as a charge rather than a hold, resulting in a fee, albeit only 6 USD.

The service was good. We booked a Picasso C4, but were given brand new Peugeot 508s. We reserved one automatic and one manual, but the staff made a mistake and gave us two manuals. They corrected the issue immediately upon realizing it. The process was simple, and the staff were friendly.
