Hertz Car Rental in Brighton
The seaside resort of Brighton stands on the south coast of England. It’s a busy tourist attraction and beach resort. By renting a car in Brighton, you can explore the different sides of the area and search out some of the more far-flung sights too. You’ll discover the city spreads along the coast in both directions, making it the largest urban centre anywhere on the English Channel. To the north are the rolling grassy chalk hills of the South Downs and eventually London, which is 55 miles away. The city is renowned for its liberal attitudes, its arts and music scene, and its quirky independent shops.
Brighton has been attracting tourists since the Georgian era so you’ll find plenty of architecture dating back 250 years. The iconic sight is the exotic Royal Pavilion, built in an oriental style in 1787 as a retreat for George, Prince of Wales. Other highlights include the Palace Pier, a stilted walkway above the sea that includes a funfair and restaurant. Rent a car in Brighton and you can drive along the famous seafront. Look out for the world’s oldest operating electrical railway, the elegant façade of the Grand Hotel and the Brighton Wheel. Just behind the waterfront are the Lanes, a maze of alleyways lined with unusual small traders.
