MuseK is every bit as
bling as you’d expect from one of
China’s best known high-end club
franchises. With locations across
the country, the Muse brand has
become synonymous with the
‘Number One DJ’/dice-rattling and
whiskey end of the Chinese clubbing
spectrum, but this outlet marks
their first venture into the hotly contested
realm of KTV in Shanghai.
Their 23 rooms feature
monochrome decor, leather sofas
and personal bartenders; the larger
spaces have pool tables, floor-to-ceiling windows that look out onto
the surrounding streets, en suite
bathrooms and dining tables (food is
sourced from HK restaurant Molokai
next door). One room features
a Yamaha piano and Swarovski
paintings on the walls; another
has a large balcony nestled among
the roofs of Xintiandi.
