Photo: [Pexels](https://www.pexels.com) ## Metered Parking in Kensington Gardens for Serpentine Galleries There is metered car parking in Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park, with both areas offering parking within short walking distance of the two gallery buildings (serpentinegalleries.org). This is the closest official parking arrangement for the site at Mount Walk, Knightsbridge, W2 3XA, near Lancaster Gate. The galleries are open Tuesday to Sunday from 10am to 6pm, and entry is free, with a suggested donation of £1 (royalparks.org.uk). Metered parking in the surrounding Royal Parks is therefore useful for a planned daytime visit, although the official visitor guidance encourages walking or public transport where possible (serpentinegalleries.org). ## Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park Parking Alternatives The official visitor information identifies metered parking in both Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park, giving drivers more than one Royal Parks area to consider when approaching Serpentine. Both locations are described as being within short walking distance of the galleries (serpentinegalleries.org). Kensington Gardens is the more direct setting for the galleries, while Hyde Park provides another named parking area within the same central parkland. The site contains two gallery buildings, and the gallery spaces are within five minutes’ walk of each other, linked by the bridge over the Serpentine Lake (wikipedia.org). Show map of Lancaster Gate ## Busy Times and Street Parking Around Mount Walk Parking pressure is likely to be greatest during busy daytime visits because the galleries run a year-round programme across two galleries and in the park (serpentinegalleries.org). The official guidance specifically encourages visitors to walk or use public transport where possible, a useful approach when metered spaces in Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park are in demand (serpentinegalleries.org). Mount Walk is the gallery address in Knightsbridge, near Lancaster Gate. The published parking guidance identifies metered parking in Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park rather than unrestricted visitor parking on surrounding streets (serpentinegalleries.org). Drivers using street bays around the park need to follow the displayed restrictions and payment conditions for the individual space. ## Parksy Spaces Near Serpentine Galleries Parksy lists several bookable spaces around Serpentine, including three options 0.3 miles away: secure parking at Thistle Hotel Kensington Gardens for £3.75 an hour, parking at Thistle Kensington Palace, SW7, for £3.38 an hour, and a secure Thistle Hotel Kensington Gardens spot for £3.75 an hour. At 0.4 miles, a secure Hilton Park Lane car park in South Kensington is listed at £4.50 an hour, while premium parking at Fraser Place Queen’s Gate, London SW7, is £21.60 an hour. A secure garage space in a prime London location is also 0.4 miles away at £164 a week. These spaces provide alternatives to metered Royal Parks parking for drivers who prefer to reserve before arriving. ## Walking From Lancaster Gate and Nearby Tube Stations Lancaster Gate tube station is the nearest station to Serpentine, at 0.5 miles or a 10-minute walk. The route brings visitors into Knightsbridge near the park setting, avoiding the need to drive into the busiest central London streets. Brompton Road tube station is approximately a 12-minute walk away, while Knightsbridge tube station is approximately a 13-minute walk away. The two gallery spaces are within five minutes’ walk of one another, connected by the bridge over the Serpentine Lake (wikipedia.org).
