Shanghai 24-Hour Spas Guide: Where to Go, Prices & Services

By Amber
July 17, 2026

In Europe, when we think of a spa, we usually imagine a place to go for a few hours to enjoy a massage, a thermal circuit, or a sauna session. However, in Shanghai, there is a very different concept that surprises many travellers: huge wellness complexes where it is possible to relax, eat, rest, be entertained, and even spend the night.
At Trip.com, we help you find the best 24-hour spa in Shanghai to suit your needs. Discover what services each option offers, what their strong points are, and what kind of experience you can expect during your stay.
♨️ How Do 24-Hour Spas in Shanghai Work?

Most operate via a single entry ticket that grants access to a large part of the facilities. Upon arrival, visitors are given an electronic wristband and comfortable clothing to move around the premises. From that moment on, they can freely access the different areas, which usually include thermal baths, saunas, relaxation areas, leisure rooms, and spaces for eating or grabbing a drink.
Many of these complexes are designed for you to spend the whole day there. Some even feature cinemas, libraries, video game rooms, karaoke, workspaces with Wi-Fi, or private rooms available for an additional cost. For this reason, some travellers describe them as a mix between a spa, a hotel, and an urban resort.

🚇🚕 How to Get to Shanghai 24-Hour Spas
First of all, it's worth clarifying that Shanghai has two main airports: Hongqiao and Pudong. Knowing which one you're landing at is key to determining which spa is best for you.
Airport | Code | Distance to Shanghai city centre | Main use |
SHA | ≈ 13 km | Domestic flights and regional routes (Asia) | |
PVG | ≈ 45 km | Long-haul international flights |
📌 Plus, the metro is very safe and easy to use; the main lines connecting the spa areas with the airport are lines 2, 10, and 17. Ticket prices range from RMB 3 to 14 (approximately £0.40 to £1.50). Also, taxis and private transport (Didi, which is like the Chinese Uber) are great options if you have luggage.
Here is exactly how to get to each spa:
Spa | From Hongqiao Airport (SHA) | From Pudong Airport (PVG) |
🚇 Metro: Line 10 → Line 2 to Pudong Road (Exit 1 + 5 min walk)⏱️ Around 60 min | 🚇 Metro: Line 2 to Pudong Road (18 stops, Exit 1 + 5 min walk)⏱️ Around 50 min | |
🚇 Metro: Line 2 (1 stop) to Hongqiao Railway Station (Exit C/D + 5 min walk)⏱️ Around 15 min | 🚇 Metro: Line 2 to Hongqiao Railway Station (21 stops, Exit C/D + 5 min walk)⏱️ Around 55 min | |
🚇 Metro: Line 2 to Hongmei Road (Exit 2 + 8 min walk)⏱️ Around 20 min | 🚇 Metro: Line 2 to Hongmei Road (23 stops, Exit 2 + 8 min walk)⏱️ Around 60 min | |
🚇 Metro: Line 10 to Shuicheng Road Station (Exit 3 + 5 min walk)⏱️ Around 30 min | 🚇 Metro: Line 2 → Line 15 to Shuicheng Road Station⏱️ Around 65 min | |
🚇 Metro + bus: Line 2 → Hongqiao Railway Station → Line 17 to Zhujiajiao + bus/Didi (10–15 min)⏱️ Around 60 min | 🚇 Metro: Line 2 → Line 17 via Hongqiao Railway Station to Zhujiajiao + bus/private car⏱️ Around 90 min |
🌟 myTrip tip: if you arrive at Hongqiao, our recommendation is Shuiguo Hot Spring: it's just 10 minutes away, open 24h, and includes unlimited fruit and rest areas. If you arrive at Pudong, our recommendation is Young·SPACE: it's the closest 24h spa, with futuristic capsules and a quieter atmosphere.

Actions speak louder than words—just look at the photos! Honestly, the pictures online didn't particularly grab me (they were just okay). I booked the hotel simply wanting a relaxing break, and it totally exceeded my expectations! The hotel environment is fantastic. Even with the rain, it didn't detract from the beauty; if anything, it enhanced the therapeutic vibe. A unique touch was using the room key to tap a jade stone by the door to enter. The hotel has so many thoughtful little service details. In the morning, they subtly leave a warm 'good morning' drink outside your door. In the evening, there's a turndown service with snacks and hot tea—very considerate! The room is gorgeous. It's a shame it was raining and a bit hot outside, so I didn't get to relax on the balcony. Otherwise, enjoying a drink out there with the view would have been lovely. The salmon and shrimp at the buffet were both fresh and delicious. The afternoon tea at the executive lounge had the same desserts as the buffet. The desserts really showed some skill, especially the Basque cheesecake, which had a wonderfully moist and smooth texture. Even though it was the Dragon Boat Festival, there were quite a few people attending classes, but most were very well-behaved, and the class atmosphere was quite immersive.FromPHP 11,438

Shanghai Disney Resort Shanghai|21.83km from city centre
Came to Disneyland with my 5-year-old daughter, and it was super convenient.
1. Shuttle Service:
(a) They picked us up from the subway station to the hotel.
(b) The next morning, they dropped us off right at the Disneyland entrance.
(c) In the evening, they picked us up again from Disneyland and took us back to the hotel.
2. Hotel Experience:
(a) The service attitude was genuinely excellent.
(b) The room was also very clean, and the bathroom had a separate wet and dry area.
(c) There was a lake right outside the window, so the view was beautiful.
(d) The breakfast was delicious too.
My child was also very happy with the food and had a great time playing. Overall, it was very good.FromPHP 6,124

This was my first time staying at Onyado Nono, and I was incredibly impressed by all the thoughtful details and the beautiful environment. The serene Japanese garden offers picturesque views at every turn, with lush greenery, flowing water, and a koi pond. It was so relaxing to feed the fish and play with the little bunnies. The hotel also includes a complimentary handmade wind chimes workshop, which was a lovely way to create a personalized souvenir that chimed beautifully in the breeze. The entire staff was incredibly kind and attentive, offering considerate service without being overbearing. It's the perfect escape from the city hustle for a short, relaxing getaway. Highly recommend!FromPHP 6,524

The hotel room facilities are good, with everything that should be there. The smoking area outside is also very beautiful. The breakfast in the morning is very good, it is self-service, and there are freshly made noodles to eat. If you are thirsty, you can go downstairs at any time to have some drinks and fruits, which are all included in the hotel package. Why the deduction? Like many reviews wrote, the water in the pool here is really too hot. It is the hottest of all the hot springs in Shanghai that I have been to. It feels too hot. I saw that several children could hardly soak in the water for a while. I don’t know why so many people complained. I saw that the management was still saying in the comments that it met the hot spring temperature requirements. What they said is that your water is too hot, and they are giving you suggestions. Everyone in the hot spring said that the water was hot, not that you violated any regulations... It takes talent to reply like thisFromPHP 3,574

Shanghai Disney Resort Shanghai|18.67km from city centre
I visited Qianyun after looking at dozens of places in the area. I wanted to be away from typical city area, have a bathtub and nice outdoor area, and with easy access to Shanghai Disneyland. Qianyun met all those requirements and more! The location was immediately very serene and surrounded by forest, but still easy to access lots of waimai food delivery options. They were also very kind and proactive about sharing information about local restaurants and activities, and provide a breakfast and evening fruit every day. They offer free car transport to Disneyland, and I was excited to use this service but I ended up enjoying my time at the hotel so much that I opted to stay and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere instead! The hotel pets are so friendly - within five minutes the little cat Banban was on my lap and purring.
The room itself is decorated very nicely with all the amenities you need. The bathtub inside is very comfortable and I loved the outdoor hot spring tub as well. The attention to hygiene is very highly emphasized and I was impressed with how clean and luxurious everything felt.
I will definitely visit again and recommend to anyone hoping to have a convenient getaway from the city, or who would like to be near to Disneyland Resort while also experiencing a more peaceful area and for a good economical value and high quality service!
Thankyou for the wonderful stay, I felt very welcome at all times.FromPHP 7,380

People's Square Shanghai|0.54km from city centre
Overall, the room was good, but the lighting was a bit dim. The shower head had low water pressure (possibly due to clogged nozzles, with only some holes working), causing water to spray everywhere. Also, the TV wasn't connected to the internet and experienced freezing issues, which might have been due to the typhoon.
Everything else was perfectly fine. The service attitude was excellent, and the room had great soundproofing (I couldn't hear any outside noise at all). The bed was very comfortable, and the air conditioning was pleasant with no strange odors. The cleanliness was also very good (I didn't see any dust or foreign objects like previous guests' hair).
We stayed for two consecutive nights and requested room cleaning after the first night. When we returned, the original slippers were respectfully placed neatly near the door, and new slippers were provided. Bottled water was replenished promptly, and the towels were all new and very clean.FromPHP 6,329

This time we were on a family trip, but I feel the hotel is more suited for business travelers.
**Facilities:** It's a five-star hotel, decent, not super new but not old either. Breakfast had a good variety.
**Hygiene:** Also decent, quite clean.
**Environment:** There's a constant fragrance throughout the hotel that I wasn't too fond of, but overall it was okay.
It's quite close to Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street and the Bund, which is great for an evening stroll.
**Service:** I had originally requested a late check-out until 2 PM upon arrival, but the front desk seemed to have forgotten about it. However, a staff member called to confirm, and I re-explained, so the late check-out was granted.FromPHP 7,417

I highly recommend the Pullman Shanghai Jing An. My stay in the Deluxe King Room was perfect, deserving a full five-star rating. The hotel is located in the heart of Jing An, within walking distance of the metro station, making it incredibly convenient to get to major commercial areas. The room was spacious and elegant, the bed soft and comfortable, and the entire room was spotlessly clean with excellent soundproofing. The front desk service was attentive and efficient, housekeeping was meticulous and thorough, and the breakfast offered a rich variety of delicious options.

The ambiance here is truly fantastic! The French aesthetic from back in the day is undeniably superb, absolutely no doubt about it! Especially the Rose Café on the east side of the lobby – it's perfect for taking Instagram-worthy photos.
The mattress and pillows are very comfortable, and the sheets, duvet covers, and pillowcases are clean and tidy, which really helps with sleep. However, the in-room facilities definitely show their age, with a distinct Japanese style reminiscent of the 80s and 90s.
What surprised me was this: I knew the hotel was built with Japanese investment back then (primarily from Nomura Securities Group and Okura Hotels & Resorts), which is evident from its Japanese name “大倉花園酒店上海” and English name “Okura Garden Hotel Shanghai.” But I had no idea the Japanese background ran so deep. The hotel is still managed by Okura Hotels & Resorts, Japan. For instance, the staff speak fluent Japanese, there's a Japanese restaurant on-site, and they even offer Japanese breakfast. I even encountered Japanese management staff in the restaurant… it honestly felt quite complex…FromPHP 7,166

The hotel's overall design features a bronze color palette, giving it an elegant and sophisticated classic charm. The facilities are comprehensive, including a self-service laundry room and a gym, which makes extended stays more convenient.

The bedding in the room was soft and comfortable, and the soundproofing was excellent, ensuring a good night's rest for my business trip.

Decent stay, but several misses for a 5-star property
My stay at the Pullman Shanghai Central was a mixed bag—nice in some areas, but disappointing in others.
Check-in: The staff were very friendly and welcoming on our first day. However, I was surprised that they wouldn't let me check in until 3:00 PM. At most other hotels, I'm usually able to get an early check-in (even if I arrive at noon), so this felt a bit rigid for a property of this level.
The Room: The room itself was comfortable—the bed was soft and the shower pressure was actually perfect (not too strong, not too weak, just right). Unfortunately, the room smelled strongly of cigarette smoke upon arrival. To their credit, when I called the front desk, they immediately offered to change my room, which was very professional of them.
Breakfast: This was the biggest letdown. The breakfast buffet felt more like what you'd expect from a 3-star hotel rather than a 5-star Pullman. The quality and selection just weren't there for me.
Overall: It was an okay stay—nothing terrible, but nothing exceptional either. I wouldn't rate it a 10/10, more like a solid 6. Good service from the staff, but the check-in policy, smoke issue, and food really held it back.FromPHP 7,017

The front desk staff were friendly and highly efficient. They even pleasantly surprised us with an upgrade to a deluxe king room, offering a perfect view of the Lujiazui skyline (the 'Lujiazui Three-piece set'), which was a very thoughtful gesture. The room was clean and spacious, the bedding soft, making for a very comfortable stay. The hotel service was meticulous and attentive; requests were promptly addressed, and the breakfast offered a rich variety with good flavors. The location is excellent, right next to Lujiazui, making transportation and dining very convenient.
Compared to other hotels on this trip, the service quality at Shangri-La truly stood out. Our whole family felt very secure and comfortable, and the kids absolutely loved it. It's highly recommended, and we'll definitely prioritize this hotel when we return to Shanghai in the future.FromPHP 9,009

💡 Tips Before Visiting a 24-Hour Spa in Shanghai

As you might imagine, 24-hour spas operate very differently to what we are used to in Europe. That’s why these tips will help you make the most of the experience.
💡 What to pack:
- Most spas provide pyjamas or a T-shirt and shorts set to wear in mixed-gender areas, as well as towels, a locker, and basic toiletries, so there's no need to pack too much.
📌 Standard rules:
Every spa has its own rules, but some are common:
- It is mandatory to shower before entering the water areas.
- In many gender-segregated thermal areas, swimwear is not worn.
- Photography is not permitted in certain areas, especially in changing rooms and swimming pools.
- It's best to keep your voice down in the break rooms.
💰 Accepted payment methods:
- Although Alipay and WeChat Pay are the most common payment methods in China, most establishments accept international cards.
- Remember that the entry price covers much more than just the bath: it includes access to all-you-can-eat buffets, cinema zones, and relaxation areas.
- And in most spas, your payment method is saved, and anything you consume that isn't included (like extra massages) is added to your wristband to be paid for when you leave.
👍 Cultural aspects worth knowing:
- If it's your first time at a 24-hour spa in Shanghai, the concept will likely surprise you. Unlike European spas, where we usually spend a few hours, in Shanghai many people go to relax, but also to eat or spend time with friends and family. So, don't be surprised to find people reading, watching a film, working on their laptop, or even spending the night there.
💡 Our advice is simple: take your time. Part of the charm lies in wandering through the facilities and discovering a form of leisure very different from what we're used to.
🎁 Which 24-Hour Spa in Shanghai Should You Choose?
The best option will depend on your budget and the type of experience you're looking for. Here are our recommendations:
- 🏆 Shuiguo Hot Spring is the best all-round option thanks to its 24-hour facilities, hot springs, saunas, rest areas, and included food. Ideal for long layovers or for relaxing all day long.
- 💰 Young·SPACE Spa offers the best value for money. Its 24-hour facilities, capsule-style cabins, private cinema, and leisure areas make it an excellent alternative for those looking to save.
- ✨ Qushui Lanting is the most exclusive option, offering a tranquil atmosphere, premium facilities, and high-end service for a truly luxurious experience.
