Motorcycle parking at St Thomas' Hospital
9 motorcycle bays within 500 metres of St Thomas' Hospital, 9 of them free. St Thomas' is on the Lambeth bank directly opposite Parliament, which means it is Lambeth rules on the hospital side and Westminster rules the moment you cross Westminster Bridge. The difference between the two is worth knowing before you choose a side.
The short answer
| Within 500 m of St Thomas' Hospital | |
|---|---|
| Motorcycle bays | 9 |
| Of those, recorded free | 9 |
| Of those, chargeable | 0 |
| Of those, customer or permit only | 1 |
| Cheapest option | Free |
| Car parks that take bikes | 5 |
| Nearest bay | 161 m, a few minutes on foot |
1 of these is customer parking, private land or permit holders only. 1 says so on the bay itself. Being on the map is not the same as being somewhere you may leave a bike, and neither is being free: on private land the risk is a parking charge from the landowner, which cannot be appealed to an independent tribunal the way a council ticket can.

Car parks that take bikes
A car park always takes a motorcycle, which is the usual answer when the bays are full. Bear in mind the price shown is the car tariff: plenty of councils let motorcycles park free in a designated area and some car parks have a bike cage, so check before you pay.
