Travel Tips

Finding Empire Sauna — the Address, Border-to-Door Routes and the Easiest Way In

Empire Sauna sits at Rua de Xangai 154 & 162 on the Macau Peninsula. How to reach it from the Outer Harbour Ferry Terminal, the HZMB bridge and the Border Gate, what to show a taxi driver, and why the free private shuttle beats every route — open 24 hours as of July 2026, whatever time you land.

First, the address: Rua de Xangai n.º 154 e 162, Macau Peninsula. For taxis, show the Chinese version — 澳門上海街154號及162號 — straight from your phone; every local driver reads it instantly. Map apps find “Empire Sauna” directly.

Route by route

  • Outer Harbour Ferry Terminal — about 60 minutes by fast ferry from Hong Kong (Sheung Wan or TST). This is the closest arrival point: the venue is minutes away by car.
  • HZMB (Hong Kong–Zhuhai–Macau Bridge) — shuttle buses cross from the Hong Kong side; from the Macau port it’s a short taxi ride into town.
  • Border Gate (from Zhuhai) — walk across, then join the taxi rank right outside.
  • Macau International Airport — the airport is on the Taipa side; the peninsula is roughly 15–20 minutes by car.

Landing late? Come anyway

Empire Sauna is open 24 hours as of July 2026 — late flights and last ferries are exactly what the place is built for. One caveat: street taxis in Macau are scarce, and scarcer still late at night or in the rain.

Or skip all of it: the free shuttle

Honestly, you don’t need to memorise any route. Book through this site, message us your arrival point and time, and a private car (never shared) meets you at the airport, terminal, border or hotel — then takes you back afterwards, free. It matters most on rainy nights, with heavy luggage, or in a group. More on the location page.

First visit? The arrival flow

  1. Give your name at reception — that’s the whole check-in
  2. Locker, shower, then the marble bath pools — warm up first
  3. Your butler takes it from there — the full walkthrough is in the Macau sauna guide

FAQ

Can I really turn up at 3 a.m.? Yes — 24 hours as of July 2026, and the small hours are the quietest, most relaxed time in the house.

How much is a taxi from the ferry or border? Short rides from any of them, but fares vary by hour and traffic. The shuttle costs exactly zero.

How many people fit in the shuttle? Tell us your group size and luggage when booking — we’ll arrange the right car, or more than one.
