It sits above the shopping centre, making it the most direct choice for shoppers carrying bags or collecting larger purchases. St David’s lists the facility with its car park, premium parking, opening hours and tariff information (stdavidscardiff.com). The centre also advertises a season pass, car wash and electric-vehicle facilities (stdavidscardiff.com). ## Weekend Shopping and Busy-Day Parking at SDC St David’s Dewi Sant is described as a 24-hour car parking facility, so early arrivals and late departures are supported by the car park’s published operating pattern (visitcardiff.com). The centre publishes separate opening-hours and tariff information for its parking facilities, while premium parking is presented as a distinct option (stdavidscardiff.com). For a shorter visit, the published tariff steps up after each time band: the first hour is £2.70, one to two hours is £3.50 and two to three hours is £4.50 (totalguidetocardiff.co.uk). QwikPark advertises parking at £9 per day and premium parking from £12 for six hours (qwikpark.co.uk). Show map of Cardiff ## Parksy Spaces Around Grand Arcade Parksy lists a secure 24/7 commercial garage 177 yd away at £2.70 an hour. A covered space at Capitol Shopping Centre is 309 yd away and costs £11 an hour. A secure monthly space in Cardiff City Centre is 319 yd away at £87 a month, while secure covered parking on Bute Terrace is 326 yd away at £90 a month. A space at the Leonardo Hotel, Cardiff CF10, is 333 yd away and priced at £8.58 an hour. A secure 24/7 garage in central Cardiff is 0.2 mi away at £25 a day. The hourly garage is the closest listed alternative and matches the centre’s published first-hour rate, while the monthly spaces suit regular city-centre parking rather than a single shopping trip. ## Westgate Street and Other Named Cardiff Car Parks [NCP](https://www.parksy.com/blog/national-car-parks-ncp-united-kingdom-parking-review) identifies a car park on Westgate Street as parking close to St David’s Centre, describing it as a few minutes’ walk away (ncp.co.uk). St David’s Dewi Sant Car Park is also named by Visit Cardiff as a 2,000-space, 24-hour facility above the shopping centre (visitcardiff.com). The centre’s own parking page separately lists premium parking, a season pass, a car wash and electric-vehicle facilities (stdavidscardiff.com). The named nearby options therefore include the centre car park and NCP’s Westgate Street facility, with the latter positioned as a short walk rather than directly above the shops. ## Walking From Cardiff Queen Street and Cardiff Central Cardiff Queen Street railway station is the nearest station, 0.2 mi from the centre and around a five-minute walk. It is the most convenient rail arrival point for shoppers travelling from Cardiff’s eastern city-centre approaches. Cardiff Central railway station is around a seven-minute walk away, making it a practical alternative for trains arriving from other parts of Wales and the wider rail network. Cardiff Bay railway station is around a 19-minute walk away and is the least direct of the three named stations for reaching the centre on foot.
