Where to park in Hulst
Hulst makes it easy for you: the paid area is exactly the old fortress town. Everything inside the town walls is paid parking, and traffic signs show where that area begins. As soon as you leave the walls behind you, you park for free throughout Hulst. Anyone combining a walk over the fortress or a visit to the Grote Markt with a longer day in town therefore faces a simple choice: walk a bit further and pay nothing, or park close by and pay € 1.75 per hour.
If you stay the whole day, the bastions are the smartest spot. There you buy a day ticket for € 5 and no longer have to watch the clock. For a short visit to a shop or a terrace it pays to pay by the hour instead.
When you have to pay
Paid parking runs from Monday through Saturday from 10.00 to 18.00 and on Sunday from 12.00 to 18.00. That is later in the morning than in many other towns: before ten you can park for free inside the walls as well, and after six in the evening too. It helps that paid hours end at the same time every day, so you do not have to work out per day when the clock runs out.
Motorcyclists pay in the city center just the same. Separate bays have been laid out for motorcycles on the Grote Markt, along the church wall. If you have a disabled parking badge, you park for free in Hulst in a disabled parking space.
Paying without guessing the time
At the meter you have to estimate in advance how long you will stay, and in a fortress town where you can easily linger an extra hour that is tricky. With SimplePark you start the parking action when you have parked and end it when you drive off; you pay for the time you were parked, in the unit the municipality uses, so lingering a little longer needs no trip back to the meter.
