Photo: [Pexels](https://www.pexels.com) ## Parking at Surgeons' Hall Museums in Old Town Surgeons' Hall Museums has no car park of its own, so drivers heading to 6 Hill Square need to use nearby street bays or another central parking space instead (museum.rcsed.ac.uk). The museum’s official visitor information directs drivers towards on-street parking and [City of Edinburgh Council](https://www.parksy.com/blog/appeal-edinburgh-parking-fine) parking details (museum.rcsed.ac.uk). The site is open 7 days a week from 10am to 5pm, with last entry at 4.30pm, so arriving earlier can make a timed visit easier to plan (museum.rcsed.ac.uk). ## Street Parking Pressure Around Hill Square and Nicolson Street The museum’s central Old Town setting places visitors close to busy streets around Nicolson Street, Hill Square and the university quarter. Metered parking spaces are available on Roxburgh Place, Richmond Place and Chambers Street (surgeonsquarter.com). Those metered spaces are free after 6.30pm on the streets listed by Surgeons Quarter, which can suit an evening arrival, although the museum itself closes at 5pm (surgeonsquarter.com). Nicolson Square also has parking, giving drivers another nearby street-based area to consider when the closest bays are occupied (surgeonsquarter.com).
