About this property

Welcome to Mill & Brae

Mill & Brae is a 4-star hotel situated in the Glenburn area of Paisley, offering a convenient base for visitors exploring the nearby attractions of Glasgow and beyond. Located at 9 Glenburn Road, the property provides easy access to cultural sites such as the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum and the Riverside Museum, both highly regarded for their extensive collections and engaging displays. Glasgow Cathedral, another significant landmark, is also within reach for guests interested in historical architecture.

The hotel features clean, comfortable rooms that, while slightly dated, are well maintained and equipped with essential amenities including en-suite facilities and in-room coffee provisions. Guest reviews highlight the attentive and friendly staff, who contribute positively to the overall experience with a professional yet welcoming approach. Dining at the on-site restaurant receives particular praise for its modern ambiance, quality Scottish fare, and accommodating service, with several guests recommending signature dishes like the Mill and Brae Stack.

Practical considerations such as convenient parking and reasonable pricing make this property suitable for both business travelers and leisure guests.

The hotel's combination of location, amenities, and service quality suggests it is well suited for visitors interested in sightseeing, recreation, and convenient transport links, although the setting and facilities cater more to practical needs than to luxury or boutique preferences.

I stayed for one night, due to the hotel’s convenient location and competitive pricing, ideal for a short visit while seeing a friend. Check-in was seamless, and the room was clean, well-sized, and perfectly suited to my needs. The restaurant was modern, spotless, and tastefully decorated. I began with the Gambas Pil Pil [succulent king prawns sautéed in garlic, chilli, and olive oil, served with toasted ciabatta]. For the main, I chose the Mill and Brae Stack [ Grilled chicken breast layered with haggis, Stornoway black pudding, and bacon, honey-roasted vegetables and mash topped with a creamy peppercorn sauce], though I opted for fries instead of the mash. While I couldn’t confirm whether the black pudding was from Charles Macleod or Macleod & Macleod, it was delicious either way with both courses exceeding expectations and i would highly recommend. Should I find myself in the area again, I wouldn’t hesitate to return, whether for another overnight stay or simply to enjoy another meal. A special mention goes to Jamie & Megan, who looked after me on Wednesday evening. Their friendly, can-do attitude and genuine smiles made a lasting impression. Even when a large party arrived close to closing time, their professionalism and positivity never wavered. I spoke with Jamie again at checkout the next morning, and he was still cheerful despite the late night. Staff like Jamie and Megan are the heartbeat of any great hospitality experience, keep up the fantastic work.

This was my first visit to Mill and Brae and the service was exceptional with Colin being an excellent host. We had breakfast and the food was faultless with a very generous serving and gluten free options for my partner. The bill came to £32 for two breakfasts, Tea and Coffee. which I thought was very reasonable. I would highly recommend the Mill and Brae to anyone. Thankyou.

What can I say, we had our wedding here from start to finish. Had a great day, staff are great, however it was Colin the manager that made our stay and wedding fantastic . Nothing was to much trouble. Silly me forgot to put guests meals on and Colin sorted it out straight away. Out of a Rooms have everything you need in them, Sandra the housekeeper is just such a lovely lady who makes sure that you have everything you need. Our wedding day was great and everything was organised and we all had a great time. Set up the function hall so we could get our hair and make-up done. Food was amazing. Can highly recommend the mill and Brea.
