Curvy Companions: Confidence From the Lobby Upward

Bianka, 23, is a Jordaan resident, attentive and warm, who loves cooking for friends and opens a good bottle without hurry. Rosa, 25, bakes, collects soul records and turns a formal lounge into somewhere cosy. Thea, 29, is cheerful and refreshingly down to earth, the Oud-Zuid companion to ask about Japanese restaurants and cycling routes. Michelle, 27, is nurturing and chatty, the sort of person who orders you a glass of water before you realise you need one.

Molly, 24, lives for house music and inventive cocktails in De Pijp, with a bold glam look and heels she can dance in. Roxi, 23, brings tropical colour, a boxer's discipline and a gift for pulling a party together. Luna, 22, is bold and independent, with dark auburn red hair, a film camera and a serious interest in wine. Milena, 25, offers editorial glamour and refreshingly direct opinions.

Danielle, 29, is the quiet centre of this group, an Oud-Zuid resident who adores classic cinema and poetry and never needs to raise her voice. Nancy, 30, is the sunny counterpoint, energetic yet easygoing, with an early swim most mornings and plenty of road trip stories to share over sushi.

This group dresses to suit the evening rather than to hide or to prove anything. Bianka favours vintage silk and deep evening colours, Danielle soft, shadowy tones, Molly a red lip and a daring shade, and Thea a light dress that looks effortless. Tailoring, fabric and colour do the work, and each companion knows exactly which combination makes her feel at ease.

Sociable plans suit these ten. A birthday table with Roxi or Molly, a long dinner with a nightcap with Bianka or Thea, a gallery walk with Rosa or a screening with Danielle: the group covers most of what a hotel guest might hope to do after dark. Nancy is a lovely choice when your hotel has a pool bar, and Michelle when lunch is likely to drift into dinner.

Nancy and Thea are also blonde companions, Danielle, Milena and Roxi appear on the black hair page, and Luna is one of the three auburn and red-haired companions. Michelle and Milena also stand with the tall group.

Oud-Zuid and De Pijp account for seven of the ten, which makes hotels near the Vondelpark, the museum quarter and the Amstel particularly convenient.
