## Parking at the Hospital on 300 Pasteur Drive

The hospital’s patient parking is listed for Stanford Hospital at 300 Pasteur Drive, with credit-card payment accepted (stanfordhealthcare.org). The first 2 hours are free, parking from 2 to 3 hours costs $3, and each additional hour or fraction costs $1. The daily charge after 7 hours is $18 (stanfordhealthcare.org).

A seven-day parking pass costs $35 and can be purchased through the gift shop or security office. The pass is valid for seven consecutive days and allows in-and-out access (stanfordhealthcare.org). All accessible spaces in university-owned lots and garages are free with a valid Disabled Person placard or license plate, while accessible spaces in hospital parking areas follow the hospital’s parking arrangements (stanford-transport.files.svdcdn.com).

## Arriving at the Hospital From Jane Stanford Way

The hospital is at 450 Jane Stanford Way in Stanford, near Palo Alto. Patient and visitor parking information identifies Stanford Hospital at 300 Pasteur Drive, so drivers visiting the medical center should use the hospital’s signed patient parking approach rather than treating nearby university parking as a hospital garage.

Visitor parking is also located on the ground floor of the parking structure at the corner of Roth Way and Campus Drive, with additional visitor spaces along Lomita Drive in front of the medical facilities (med.stanford.edu). The medical center’s parking page also identifies the gift shop and security office as locations for seven-day pass purchases (stanfordhealthcare.org).
