KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Paisley

  • Car hire in Paisley will pay off when you enjoy the freedom it will give you to explore the city and the Scottish countryside in which it’s set. Top of the list is Glennifer Braes Country Park, which overlooks the city and requires a short drive. Barshaw Park is another place worth visiting. In the centre of town, it pays to choose a hire car in Paisley as your means of transport, especially if you’d like to take in all the historical sites here, like Coats Observatory and Fountain Gardens. If you love architecture, Paisley Abbey and Thomas Coats Memorial Baptist Church are fine specimens.
  • Paisley is pretty well situated to reach by air travel, as it’s only just over 2.5 miles away from Glasgow International Airport. This is a large airport with all the modern facilities that will make it very easy for you to complete your Paisley car hire there after you’ve pre-booked. You won’t have any problem locating the hire companies, as they’re all right outside the terminal building in two dedicated locations: next to domestic arrivals and also right outside Terminal 2. Whether you prefer Budget, Avis, Hertz or another brand, they’re all highly visible in the airport’s car rental centre.
  • Paisley is a highly pedestrianised city, with specific pedestrian zones that you’ll need to be aware of when using car hire in Paisley. This specifically applies to Paisley High Street, which used to be closed entirely to vehicle traffic, but which has since been opened in the evenings and overnight only. As a result, there is a very strong pedestrian presence in this central area of town at night, and cars are expected to respect this, so exercise caution and drive a bit slower than the speed limit.
  • When rush hours come around in Paisley, which are at the typical times between 08:00 and 09:00 and again between 16:00 and 17:00, the most affected areas and streets are the centre of town, just before you get to the pedestrianised area through which the High Street runs. Try to avoid the roads around St James’s junction as well, particularly where it intersects with the M8. Christie Street is another road that can get congested.
  • Book your rental car in Paisley at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Compact rental cars in Paisley are around 72% cheaper than other car types, on average

FAQs about renting a car in Paisley

  • What type of car is recommended for driving in Paisley?

    You’ll face a bit of a pleasant dilemma when you’re looking at what type of car to hire when you’re visiting Paisley. It’s tempting to get something that can take on the surrounding Scottish countryside like a 4x4 or to enjoy the secondary roads in a luxury saloon. On the other hand, a more compact city car will likely make a more convenient choice if you’re more inclined to enjoy everything that’s on offer in the city itself, particularly in the busier areas mentioned above.

  • What’s the speed limit in Paisley?

    Don’t be lulled into being lax about speed limits by the relaxed setting of the city. Keep a sharp eye out for speed camera alerts, particularly on Paisley Road itself, on Renfrew Road, and the Glenburn Road section of town where it intersects Caplethill Road and Glennifer Road. The speed limit in the centre of the city and its residential areas is 30mph. As you move outside these zones, the speed limit increases to 60mph on the motorways.

  • Where are the best places to park in Paisley?

    Parking is really reasonably priced in Paisley, at around £0.60 for 2h and £2.40 for all-day parking. Look specifically for the Bridge Street Car Park, the ones at the north-west and south-west ends of Cross Street and on Glen Lane.

  • What is the cheapest car rental company in Paisley?

    In the past 72 hours, the cheapest rental cars were found at keddy by Europcar ($16/day), DRIVALIA ($19/day) and Routes Car & Truck Rentals ($22/day).

I am not a fan of Hertz, but our experiences in other countries with Hertz were positive. Not this one, unfortunately! (I don't understand why it always happens in Scotland, which I love so much!) We snatched a great deal on Expedia. That was in theory. When we got to Hertz, we purchased the basic insurance (in the end) but were added taxes that were never mentioned in the initial booking. In the end, the situation got settled; most of the extra amount was returned to us, but no one called us or updated us on the situation, even though they promised - we had to investigate on our own (and contact Expedia, too). Pluses? The car was a great one! So, 1 star for the employees who didn't know what they were doing and 5 stars for those who solved our case.

My appointment was scheduled for 10pm. I showed up around 10:20 PM, because my husband’s checked bag was on the plane after us. I assumed this wouldn’t be an issue, since normally the process of renting a car takes some time. When I showed up, I was told that the staff left at 10pm. They didn’t bother calling us to tell us. Apparently, they ONLY call you if you include your flight number on the reservation. When I showed up the next morning to get the car, mind you the entire reservation was paid for in advance, I was told the car was given away. I then had to pay an extra $400 for a different car. I asked for a refund for the first reservation, but nothing was given to me.

Be aware that at this europcar (Glasgow) they will cancel your reservation if you are not there to get the car BEFORE your time. Then they will try to upsell you because “unfortunately we don’t have the car you reserved anymore since you were late.” It happened to every person in line when we were there. We had a reservation for a suv for $560 and they would only rent us a $1500 “upgraded” suv. It’s all an upsell scam. Luckily we walked across to AVIS and they were great to work with. We were able to get an suv on the spot with the insurance for $750. My advice is to avoid Europcar Glasgow at all cost. I can’t speak for any other Europcar locations.

BE CAREFUL! Fortunately Paisley (Glasgow airport, Scotland) accepted my Diners Club credit card had collision and theft coverage, so I could decline paying for Europecar’s coverage. Despite my having paperwork saying my North American auto insurance had up to 60 days global rental coverage (I had a coverage rider noting this, in my name, printed out and with me), this location said they would not have taken that. And Europcar on the week prior Dublin rental refused even the credit card coverage and forced us to purchase the extra Europcar insurance, despite my having Pre-Paid that rental on their website!! So be very careful, and it’s not the rental staff’s fault. Europcar buries the fact (that they are stringent on allowing people to decline paying for coverage. It is 2 clicks in and a big scroll down to see how stringent and that you need proof in writing in you name for them to accept you have suitable 3rd party coverage.

I paid for my rental on your site. I got to the pick up location and i had to pay an extra approx. 100 pounds in order to rent the vehicle .... so the total your site gave me was not in fact the total.

I wasn't given a car as Sixt wouldn't accept my temporary license. The gentleman at the desk was very helpful - he checked all the other agencies and took me to one that accepted my license - I had to pay £200 more than the rental I'd booked with you. I did appreciate that my original rental was refunded immediately.

The customer service was impeccable. I was served by a guy named Ish and he was just amazing. The car was clean, had brand new smell, it was a great drive and the return was painless. I don't feel at this time that anything could have been better except for the price, but that's the market and not the company's fault.
