Are these motorcycle parking spots free for the whole day?
Most of these motorcycle parking spots are free the whole day, with the exception of IKEA Tampines, whose parking hours run from 8am to 11pm. So, you’ll mostly be able to head down to these locations and enjoy complimentary parking anytime. Just take note to park at designated spots for motorcycles to avoid getting in trouble.
The information is accurate at the time of writing, but it’s recommended that you check the terms and conditions and any signs on-site before leaving your motorcycle, as parking rules and timings can change.
Free motorcycle parking in Central Singapore
1. Concorde Hotel Singapore

Free parking and Orchard Road don’t normally belong in the same sentence, but motorcyclists have an advantage here. Concorde Hotel Singapore offers free motorcycle parking, making it a handy spot to leave your bike if you’re spending the day in town.
The hotel sits within walking distance of The Centrepoint, 313@Somerset, Orchard Central, and Design Orchard.
However, you’ll want to pay attention to where you ride once you enter the car park. According to Spen, a YouTuber who uploads videos on motorcycle parking in Singapore, there are motorcycle parking lots before the car park gantry that riders can use for free.
If those are occupied, there are also lots after the gantry. To access those without being charged, Spen demonstrates that riders should slide through the left of the gantry rather than the right, which will register the motorcycle for paid parking.

If you’re riding down to City Hall, you’ll be glad to know there’s free motorcycle parking at Esplanade. Free parking is subject to availability, but the carpark is open 24 hours a day, so you can head down anytime.
Of course, you don’t have to be catching a performance at the arts centre to make use of its convenient location. Marina Square is just next door, while places such as National Gallery Singapore and Raffles City are within walking distance too.

Suntec City is another great CBD-adjacent option. Motorcycle parking at the B1 and B2 levels here is listed as free from Mondays to Sundays, including public holidays.
Apart from the shops and restaurants within Suntec City itself, Marina Square and Millenia Walk are a short walk away. You can also park here and explore the wider precinct on foot, including trekking down to Raffles City or Funan.

Free parking while cafe hopping sounds wonderful to us. Dempsey Hill is one of those places where you can easily spend a couple of hours, and thankfully, parking your motorcycle here won’t add anything to the bill.
Since parking is free, take your time exploring cafes, restaurants, and different wellness establishments, like Nowhere Baths, an indoor bathhouse.
6. Mount Alvernia Hospital

If you’re heading around the Thomson area, Mount Alvernia Hospital is another spot where motorcycle parking is free.
Its location is especially handy for those planning a trip to MacRitchie Reservoir Park, which is just across Thomson Road. Once you’re there, you can have a leisurely stroll along the reservoir or take on one of the longer nature trails for some good exercise.

Parking at KINEX can be a more practical option, as Paya Lebar is a busy area with several malls, and looking for an empty lot can be difficult. Motorcycle parking here is free every day, including public holidays.
If you’re visiting Paya Lebar Quarter (PLQ), Paya Lebar Square, or Singpost Centre, park at KINEX and explore the wider shopping district on foot.
There is no paid barrier to the car park, and you can access the motorbike parking lots by veering to the right side of Level 2.

Admission tickets, food, and the inevitable souvenir can already make a trip to Mandai Wildlife Reserve an expensive day out, so riders can at least save on one thing: parking.
Motorcycle parking is free when visiting the WEST and EAST carparks of Mandai Wildlife Reserve. These carparks serve multiple attractions, including Singapore Zoo and Bird Paradise, making it one less expense to account for while exploring the animal parks.

Those living around Bukit Timah can bookmark Jelita Shopping Centre, where motorcycle parking is also free. The free motorcycle parking lots are located outside the main carpark gantry in an open-air space.

While you’re in the vicinity, you can also head over to the nearby Rail Corridor for a breather in nature. If you want to explore the wider neighbourhood, Holland Village is also a shorter distance away with cafes, restaurants, and bars.
