St. Louis STR permits require parking matching the underlying zoning requirement. In historic neighborhoods with no off-street parking, hosts must document legal on-street options in house rules.
Under the STR ordinance and St. Louis Zoning Code Chapter 26 parking standards, STR operators must provide off-street parking equivalent to what is required for the underlying residential use, generally one space per dwelling unit in multi-family and one to two for single-family. In historic neighborhoods like Soulard, Lafayette Square, and the Central West End where off-street parking is scarce, hosts must document legal on-street parking options in their house rules. On-street parking follows normal city rules including permit parking zones, two-hour daytime limits in some districts, and twice-weekly street sweeping. Guests with RVs cannot park oversized vehicles on residential streets overnight.
Improper parking: standard citation $15 to $75. Blocking alley or hydrant: tow plus $75 to $250. STR permit violation for inadequate parking documentation: warning then $100 to $500.
