This list holds the ten companions aged 22 to 24, every age taken from photo ID the desk has seen in person. The band says less about years than about a way of spending them. At this point in life most of these women are busy building something of their own: a notebook of perfumes, a folder of photographs, a list of planets found without an app. They bring that collecting habit to a hotel evening, and guests tend to leave with something added to their own list.
Grouped below by what each one gathers.
Tiffany photographs the painted doors and hand lettered signs of Soho and can guess the year a hotel opened from its staircase. Lea stores interiors in her head, the fabric on a headboard, the difference between an antique and a clever copy. Angelika collects disagreements about contemporary art from the white rooms of Savile Row and enjoys them more than the art.
Luna points her camera at reflections, a darkened shop window, a lift door polished to a mirror. Stacy takes street pictures along the King's Road after dark and snowboards every winter. Lucy gathers the sky itself, three planets picked out by eye on a clear London night, and explains patiently why the city is still a decent place for moon watching.
Curiosity, mostly. Companions at this stage ask plenty of questions and remember the answers, and they are as happy to be shown your favourite bar as to show you theirs. The manner is warm, direct and unfussy. Several keep late hours, Jasmin rarely before nine and Molly from ten, while Lucy is the exception who enjoys an afternoon. None of this alters the terms: every name here books on the same rates ladder as the rest of the rota, from £250 for the first hour.
Three live in Soho: Jasmin, Tiffany and Molly, which is why so many of these evenings start within a few streets of Old Compton Street. Angelika and Luna are in Mayfair, Bianka in Knightsbridge and Lea in Belgravia. Lucy and Roxi live in Pimlico and Stacy in Chelsea, all three a short ride from the hotels of SW1. Every one of them travels to any hotel in town.
The late twenties list holds fourteen companions between 25 and 29, and thirties and beyond four more. For a late evening with any of these ten, the night out booking explains how the desk holds the later hours.
