Hotels With Pools in Shanghai, China

Wonderful stay! We really enjoyed our time at Wheatfield Watch House. The property was spotless, comfortable, and very well maintained. One of the biggest highlights is the location, it’s just a few minutes from Disneyland, which was incredibly convenient. The hosts even drove us there by car, saving us a lot of time, which we truly appreciated. The staff are absolutely adorable: very kind, welcoming, and always ready to help. The service was excellent and made our stay even more enjoyable. The breakfast is quite limited in choice, but still sufficient to start the day.

This was the first hotel I ever stayed at in China, and my experience was absolutely incredible. From the moment I entered the lobby, I was greeted warmly by the staff members who could speak English, unlike in many other hotels in China. Then I was upgraded to a suite in 42nd floor, with stunning skyline views. The room was equipped with all the necessary amenities and much beyond, including a free to use Minibar and a fruit plate. The bathroom had a bath facing the windows, as well as a shower, the bed was comfy, there were 2 TVs, a traditional tea set, and even a unicorn plushie. The breakfast selection was one of the largest I've seen in years, featuring both Chinese and Western options of high quality. The hotel is located in a bustling area within the Pudong district, with easy access to a major metro stations, restaurants, shopping malls and much more. I couldn't pick a better hotel for my trip to Shanghai!

A must-stay for a Disney girls' trip! This guesthouse is absolutely divine – every photo turns out perfectly, and it makes visiting the park so much easier. My friends all praised my choice! 📸 Photo-Op Paradise: The guesthouse has its own influencer-worthy photo spots, an Instagrammable hallway, and dreamy lighting setups. No need to brave the park crowds; you can get a full nine-panel photo grid right here. 🍜 Foodie Freedom: The guesthouse restaurant offers beautiful dishes that are both delicious and photo-worthy. Room service is available for extra orders, so you can enjoy amazing food without even leaving your room. 🚗 Effortless Travel: My friends and I didn't have to rush in the morning – the guesthouse provides direct transfers to the park. After a day of fun, we just hopped in the car, and back at the guesthouse, we could relax and chat. No tiredness, just pure comfort. 🛏️ Stylish Rooms: Choose from 'girlfriend rooms' or themed rooms, all with amazing ambiance. We continued our happy conversations about gossip and outfits before bed. When you're tired from exploring Disney, just come back to the guesthouse to relax, take photos, and feast. That’s the ultimate joy of a girls' trip! 👉 Book a 'girlfriend room' to unlock the best Disney experience.

The hotel facilities are complete and the hygiene is excellent. I booked a river view room, and the floor-to-ceiling windows in both the room and bathroom offered an unobstructed view of the North Bund, including all its attractions. Coincidentally, a navy ship was visiting Shanghai and open for tours, but I couldn't get a reservation. Still, seeing it from afar through the window was quite gratifying. The hotel's exterior windows were spotless, which was perfect for enjoying the views, allowing me to appreciate the beauty of Shanghai both day and night. The staff were all very polite, always ready to answer questions and fulfill requests. Before check-in, they called to confirm my itinerary and ask about any special requirements. All the services were excellent, making for a very satisfying and pleasant stay.

After visiting graves for Qingming Festival, I took my family to Gokurakuyu in Chuansha for a hot spring bath and an overnight stay. I've been to the Jinshajiang and Biyun locations before and had good experiences, so this time I wanted to try staying overnight. We booked a family room. There was no view outside the window, and the lighting was just okay. Some parts of the tatami mats were a bit worn. The room itself was very spacious with a large activity area, featuring a very Japanese style with sliding doors. The bathroom was near the entrance, clearly separated from the main room. Since we didn't spend much time in the room, it was perfectly fine for a one-night stay. The arcade equipment was a bit disappointing. The claw machines had very loose claws; I tried at least 20 times and didn't win anything. A high percentage of the machines were also out of order. The kids' play area was also small. Only one of the sauna rooms was hot, and it only opened at 4 PM on weekends. The saunas at the Jinshajiang and Biyun locations had more variety and better temperatures. As for the hot springs, I highly recommend the outdoor 'Tsubo no Yu' (pot bath) in the women's section. It was very comfortable, and the area was kept very clean by the attentive staff. The rest areas here were larger than the other two locations I've visited, which was a plus. Overall, each Gokurakuyu location has its own strengths, it just depends on your personal preferences.

If I could describe Mido, I would say it is a home away from home. The team express it through their genuine warmth and consideration for their guests. It is a short distance away (about 15-20mins) from the airport and Disney Shanghai. Prefect for travellers going to Disney as the lovely homestay team provides some early transportation and  evening transportation right after fireworks (it is a really a nice touch, not to worry about how to get back to Mido.) As it is my first time in Shanghai, I chose this accommodation for its cute outlook and am blessed and lucky to have met the team who make sure their guests are having a good time. Their two friendly and furry dogs were a pure delight every night when I returned, I would miss their happy energy! I hope to come back again or see them in Singapore if they ever decide to  travel to where I live so I can return the kind hospitality they have given me. Thank you so much for everything, I wish the team and the dogs happy and healthy till I get to see them again.

The stay was excellent. Although there aren’t any shops or eateries within close walking distance, the experience more than made up for it thanks to the amazing staff. They were warm, genuinely friendly, and went out of their way to help with anything we needed. Their attentiveness made our trip feel effortless and truly enjoyable. I’d gladly come back again. Highly recommended.

Overall, it was a very comfortable stay. It's convenient, and the service attitude is excellent. I was traveling with two kids and booked two rooms, and luckily, the hotel staff arranged connecting rooms for us. Although it's a bit old, it's comfortable to stay in, and any requests were handled promptly. That's why we extended our stay in the same rooms, postponing our other plans. We stayed an extra day in Shanghai. The value for money at this price is really great!

We really happy with our stay. Although staff speak limited English, they are able to use translate. The bus to and from Disneyland work well. We like the amenities in the room. The towel is clean and soft. Breakfast is also nice. We can wash our clothes too.

From check-in to check-out, every detail at this guesthouse was simply perfect, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to all families traveling with children! The location is absolutely fantastic, super close to Disneyland, with shuttle services for both ways, so you don't have to worry about transportation at all. The driver picked us up punctually in the morning and dropped us off at the park entrance. In the evening, after the fireworks show, we didn't have to jostle with crowds to find a taxi; the shuttle was waiting at a designated spot. We could just stroll over with our child at a leisurely pace, feeling completely safe and secure! This one-stop shuttle service is incredibly convenient for families with kids, saving so much energy! The front desk staff were surprisingly warm and enthusiastic, always smiling and ready to help with any issues immediately. They made us feel like family. As soon as we arrived, they proactively shared tips for navigating the park and kindly reminded us of important things to note before entering. Their attention to detail was exceptional. The room itself met all our needs for traveling with a child! My child was absolutely thrilled upon entering and had a blast playing in the room. The room decor was incredibly thoughtful, filled with thematic elements. The bedding was clean and soft, and all disposable amenities were provided. The cleanliness was meticulously maintained, making our stay very comfortable. The breakfast offered a wide variety of nutritious options. After a hearty breakfast, we could happily head to the park with our child, ensuring we had enough energy to play all day. An even bigger surprise was that the guesthouse has its own restaurant, offering both lunch and dinner. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. Being able to enjoy hot meals without having to go out was a blessing for families who prefer not to fuss around.
