Having booked your SilverDoor corporate apartment, it is time to prepare for your trip to Shanghai. We have put together some essential information to help you get ready for your stay in this major Chinese city.
Shanghai is served by two major international airports: Pudong International Airport and Hongqiao Airport. The former is the main hub for international flights, with Hongqiao serving as the main airport for domestic travel. The Maglev train runs between Pudong Airport and Shanghai, reaching the city center in only 8 minutes. Both airports are on the metro line that links to downtown Shanghai. When traveling in Shanghai, the easiest and most effective method is the metro. Although buses and taxis are also an option, the metro is the best way to avoid traffic and navigate the city.
Shanghai's climate is classified as humid subtropical, with hot and humid summers and cool to mild winters. In summer, the city is exposed to thunderstorms, with the threat of typhoons also present. The most pleasant time to visit Shanghai is during the spring or fall, when the climate is less extreme.
Shanghai cuisine is derived from two contrasting styles of cooking, Benbang and Haipai. Both styles have much in common, using steaming, braising, stir-frying, marinating, and roasting. Benbang Cuisine is the traditional family style of cooking in the Shanghai province, while Haipai Cuisine was developed in the latter stages of the Qing Dynasty. Both offer excellent dishes!
The Bund, at the heart of the city, is a famous waterfront promenade showcasing the pre-colonial architecture of Shanghai. Across the water, the modern skyline of the Pudong district is striking, with the Shanghai Tower and Oriental Pearl TV Tower providing a stunning backdrop to the city. For those traveling with a group or with family, be sure to check out Shanghai Disneyland Park, where world-class attractions and immersive entertainment offer a fun-filled day for visitors.
Corporate housing provides a self-contained apartment – usually up to double the size of a comparable hotel room – with its own kitchen, laundry facilities, and separate living space. You can cook, entertain, and work in privacy, yet still enjoy hotel-style extras such as housekeeping, a 24-hour reception, gyms, and meeting rooms. The result is greater flexibility, more privacy, and often lower overall costs for longer stays.
Yes, there are plenty of corporate apartments in Shanghai that allow for pets. We understand that both business and leisure travelers may want to bring their furry friend with them to make their stay feel more comfortable and at home. To make your search easier, you can filter to view a selection of our pet-friendly corporate housing in Shanghai.
If you qualify for the 240-hour visa-free transit scheme, you can stay up to ten days without a visa. For longer stays, business travelers usually require an M or F category visa, while relocating staff need a Z-visa. Be sure to check the Travel China Guide for more information on visas.
