Because Scripps Mercy Hospital San Diego is in a high-traffic neighborhood, we recommend allowing extra time for travel. 

Our main entrance is on 5th Avenue between Washington Avenue and Lewis Street, with parking available in the adjacent multilevel structure on Lewis.

Scripps charges for parking after 30 minutes. Our rates are as follows: 

• First 30 minutes: Free
• 31 minutes to 4 hours: $6

Parking fees must be paid using our self-pay kiosks. They accept all payment types (cash, debit and credit cards as well as tap to pay including Apple Pay and Google Pay) and are conveniently located in the visitor parking structures.

Self-parking for disabled visitors and clergy is free. Visitors with disabilities must present their parking placards to parking gate attendants. Clergy can receive validation from the hospital security office.

For your convenience an ATM is located on the first floor of the hospital, near the coffee cart in the lobby.

General hospital visiting times are 8 am - 8:30 pm, but may be adjusted based on the patient’s needs or wishes. Learn more about our hospital visitation policy, including guidelines for children and service animals.

If you’d like to give or send flowers or gifts to a hospitalized patient, Scripps offers two convenient options. Learn more about our on-site and online gift shops.
