Eight spas, re-checked against their own sites on 16 Oct 2026.
> Quick view: the cheapest way in is Aramsa's S$20 Blossom Day Pass (tea house and steam, to 31 Dec); the cheapest onsen circuit is Yunomori's S$49.05; the cheapest hotel-spa hour is St. Regis's S$195++. Catch: Yunomori's sauna is men's side only, and Banyan Tree at MBS is hotel guests only.
16 Oct 2026 re-check: three spas moved. Auriga has a new September menu: the moon rituals are S$650++ (were S$610++), the 120-minute Vibrational Sound Therapy is S$470++ and the Rejuvenating Body Treatment S$450++. Intuitive Wellness and Deep Tissue are now booked online from 90 minutes (S$330++), with 60 minutes on request only, so its S$230++ hour is now the prenatal massage or Manual Lymphatic Drainage, and the Mon-Thu non-peak rates moved to 120-minute treatments. Aramsa's S$20 Blossom Day Pass is live again: its terms now run to 31 December. Aramsa has also added a free kids session for a child with two paying adults (to 31 Oct) and a free exfoliation on paid treatments of 90 minutes or more (to 30 Dec). Ikeda's free first-visit onsen bath is extended again, to 17 Oct. Everything else held: St. Regis S$195++ and the Revitalising Escape to 31 Oct, Capella's S$460++ day pass, Banyan Tree guests only, Yunomori S$49.05, Spa Esprit's S$755 off-peak 10-pack, G.SPA S$88 entry and the S$114 first-timer 90 minutes.
23 Sep 2026 re-check: every price below held. Banyan Tree is still hotel guests only at Tower 2 Level 5, Capella's day pass is still S$460++ (S$560++ with Sunday brunch), St. Regis's Revitalising Escape still runs to 31 Oct, Yunomori's day pass is still S$49.05, Spa Esprit's off-peak 10-pack is still S$755 and G.SPA's S$114 first-timer 90 minutes is still on its homepage. The one change: Ikeda's free first-visit onsen bath has been extended again, now to 24 Sep 2026. 5 Oct 2026 update: Aramsa's S$20 anniversary add-on has been renewed to 31 December, with a scalp treatment in place of gua sha; Tuning into Harmony ended on 30 September and the Mandi Lulur ginger ritual (S$298 single / S$448 couple, Mon-Fri) runs to 30 December in its place; and Ikeda's free first-visit onsen bath now reads extended to 5 October.
Prices re-checked against each spa's own site on 10 Sep 2026. Seven of the eight publish a real menu online. Auriga's booking system, Ikeda, Spa Esprit's store, Yunomori's store, G.Spa's PDF price list, Aramsa's promotions page and now St. Regis's own PDF rate card all carry exact figures, so nearly every number below is exact rather than indicative. Only Banyan Tree still withholds its menu, which is why its treatment prices alone are marked "~". Note the quoting basis differs: Yunomori, G.Spa, Aramsa and Spa Esprit quote nett, Ikeda quotes before 9% GST, and Auriga, St. Regis and Banyan Tree quote ++, so a S$195++ St. Regis hour is about S$234 once service charge and GST land.
Four things changed since our last check, and the first one rewrites the guide: St. Regis publishes a full rate card after all, as a 10-page PDF behind its Menus page, and a 60-minute Relaxation massage on it is S$195++, which takes the cheapest-hotel-spa-hour title off Auriga's S$230++; its seasonal ritual is also renamed The Revitalising Escape, same S$278++ for 75 minutes, now dated 1 Sep to 31 Oct. Ikeda has retired the Ramune summer package and replaced it with Fall for Fuji Apple from S$228+. G.SPA has a new first-timer rate of S$114 nett for 90 minutes against a usual S$228, which is cheaper than its own S$138 hour. And Aramsa's In Bloom day has passed, leaving the S$20 nett anniversary add-on, now renewed to 31 December, as the live offer, with the stacking caveat below. Still true, and still the thing readers get wrong: Yunomori's sauna is on the men's side only, the steam room is for everyone, the sauna is not.
How to use this list
Pick by occasion + budget:
- Monthly self-care (S$120-220/visit): Spa Esprit, Yunomori, Aramsa

The 8 picks at a glance
| Tier | Picks | The cheapest real booking in that tier |

Booking strategy that saves real money
- Weekday daytime slots (Mon-Thu 10am-4pm) are 20-40% cheaper than weekend evenings across most spas
- Package bundles save far more than the usual "15-25%" claim, if you buy the off-peak version. Spa Esprit prices a single massage at S$120, a 10-pack at S$840 (S$84) and an OFF-PEAK weekday 10-pack at S$755, S$75.50 a visit, 37% off. Yunomori's Monthly Unlimited Pass is S$433.82 and breaks even at nine visits a month
- Hotel spa treatments include facility access (steam, sauna, pool), arrive 45 min early to use the full circuit
- Ask about the member rate, not just the promo. G.Spa members pay S$68 rather than S$88 to get in and roughly 25% less on every treatment; Sands LifeStyle members get 10-30% off Banyan Tree by tier
- Gift cards during sales (Black Friday, year-end) often discounted ~10%
What to know about each category
HOTEL LUXURY SPAS (Banyan Tree, Auriga, St. Regis): Forbes / Conde Nast 5-star service standards, signature ritual menus, full facility access included with treatment, butler-tier hospitality. Worth the price for special occasions + tourists wanting THE Singapore luxury experience.
JAPANESE-STYLE (Ikeda, Yunomori): differentiated by hinoki cypress baths + onsen circuits. Ikeda is private-room hinoki; Yunomori is communal onsen-style (requires nude bathing in same-sex pools). Pick by your comfort level.
LOCAL INDEPENDENT CHAINS (Spa Esprit, Aramsa): purpose-built for monthly Singapore residents. Functional, clean, consistent quality, multiple outlets. The sustainable choice for ongoing self-care.
VALUE / 24-HOUR (G.SPA): a 24-hour lifestyle bathhouse, jjimjilbang heat rooms, sauna, hot and cold pools and round-the-clock food. The S$88 single-use 24-hour admission is the budget play, and the treatments are not add-ons on top of it: G.Spa's price list states every body treatment, foot reflex and facial is inclusive of the 24-hour admission, so a S$188 sixty-minute massage is the whole bill. What does cost extra is the room, S$18 for a single treatment room, S$35 for a couple room, S$80 for a couple room with jacuzzi.
What the day pass actually gets you (and what it doesn't)
Two of the picks sell facilities-only entry, and readers routinely mix them up with a treatment booking:
- Yunomori, S$49.05 adult, S$38.15 child (3-15) and senior (65+), GST included, 10am-10pm daily. Unlimited time in all 11 baths, plus the steam room. Includes locker, one set of towels, onsen yukata and amenities. Massages are a separate add-on on top (from S$52.32) and the pass is required to book them. There is no weekday/weekend split any more, one price all week, and no re-entry once you leave. A new Monthly Unlimited Pass costs S$433.82 with GST at the front desk, worth it only above about nine visits a month. No booking needed to enter, but there's no re-entry once you leave.
- G.SPA: S$88 for a single-use 24-hour admission, or S$68 on a G.Membership. Facilities, heat rooms, lounges and meals for a full 24 hours, with one entry and no re-entry. Treatments are not extra on top: they include the admission, so the S$138 first-timer 60-minute massage costs only S$50 more than the door price, but it is for Singapore Citizens and PRs only.
- Aramsa, S$20 Blossom Day Pass, now to 31 Dec 2026. Tea house, light refreshments, shower and steam, no treatment, GST included. Its terms first ended the soft-launch price on 31 July; they now run 1 May-31 December 2026. Book by phone on 6456 6556 and quote Blossom Day Pass. Book a treatment if you want hands-on work.
- Auriga at Capella, S$460++ Wellness Discovery Day Pass, and yes, it is a real one. Sun-Thu 8am-8pm, bundling a 90-min Intuitive Wellness Massage, breakfast at Fiamma (7-11am), the three cascading pools (8am-7pm), purification water experiences and the fitness centre, plus 20% off F&B and 10% off retail. S$560++ swaps breakfast for Sunday brunch (12-3pm). Both are S$10 up on the S$450/S$550 widely quoted, and neither combines with other offers. This is the exception to the "Singapore hotel spas don't sell day passes" rule you'll read elsewhere.
- Banyan Tree MBS and St. Regis do not sell a standalone day pass, facility access comes bundled with a booked treatment. And Banyan Tree is not available to you at all unless you are staying at MBS: the hotel states the spa is reserved exclusively for in-house guests, and lists it at Tower 2, Level 5. See the FAQ below.
Where to actually find a sauna in Singapore
"Sauna" and "spa" get used interchangeably, and it costs people money. Only some of the picks on this list have a real dry sauna, and one of them is men-only:
| Where | Sauna access | Cost to get in |
|---|
| G.SPA | Yes, Korean-style jjimjilbang heat rooms + dry sauna, open to all guests, 24 hours | S$88 admission |
| Yunomori Kallang | Male onsen area only, steam room is available to everyone, the sauna is not | S$49.05 day pass |
| Banyan Tree, St. Regis, Auriga | Yes, dry sauna + steam in the wet-lounge circuit; Auriga adds a vitality pool and ice fountain | Bundled with a treatment (from S$230++ at Auriga, or its S$460++ day pass); Banyan Tree hotel guests only |
| Spa Esprit, Aramsa, Ikeda | No communal sauna, these are treatment-room spas | N/A |
The short answer: if you specifically want a sauna you can sit in for as long as you like, G.SPA at S$88 is the only 24-hour option, and it's the one to pick if you're a woman searching for a sauna, Yunomori's is on the men's side only. If you want sauna as part of a luxury circuit, book any 60+ minute treatment at a hotel spa and arrive 45 minutes early.
Prenatal-safe options
From 2nd trimester onwards with certified therapists:
- Spa Esprit, S$120, the same price as its other full-body massages (published, not estimated)
- Auriga at Capella (S$230++ for 60 min, S$330++ for 90 min, with pregnancy support cushions) the only hotel spa here that publishes a prenatal price
- Aramsa Garden Spa (~S$160 / 75 min
- Ikeda Spa) certified therapists from the 2nd trimester, price not published, ask when you call
- Banyan Tree, St. Regis, prenatal on request with advance booking + medical clearance
AVOID budget reflexology shops + tuina parlors for prenatal, risk profile is unmanaged.
Couples spa options (side-by-side suites)
| Spa | Couples price (both) | Setting |
|---|
| Auriga Capella | S$660++ (2 x 90 min), S$1,600++ full 4.5-hr journey | 4 couples suites, rainforest |
| Banyan Tree MBS | ~S$1040 | Hotel guests only; Tower 2, Level 5 |
| Ikeda Spa | S$598 Happily Ever Anniversary (90 min, 2 pax) | Private hinoki couple suite |
| St. Regis Spa | S$960++ (Time For Two, 180 min) | Quiet residential luxury |
| Aramsa Garden | S$558 weekday retreat, or S$448 Mandi Lulur (Mon-Fri, to 30 Dec) | Garden cabana, Bishan Park 2 |
