What We OfferHotel outcall companionship
A companion to your room, anywhere between Marble Arch and Tottenham Court Road
The everyday offer, and the one most first messages ask for. You are staying on the street or a block either side of it. You tell Clementine the hotel, the time and how long. She answers inside fifteen minutes with a name, a price and an arrival time, and most nights see her knocking well before another hour has passed. The whole thing is simple, and meant to be.
The shortest booking is one hour at £250. Her journey to any door in Zones 1 and 2 is already inside that figure, so a room at Marble Arch and a room by Tottenham Court Road cost the same to the pound. The rates page lists every other length.
Windows for Hotel and flat visits
The companions the desk suggests first for this kind of evening. Any other window in the selection can be asked too.
The ticket, in four lines
No surcharge is added for a late hour, a Sunday or a suite on the top floor. There is no service charge and no priced extra tucked away anywhere, because the only thing being booked is her time and her company.
The lobbies she knows best
Walk the street from west to east and it reads like a hotel directory. By the arch stand The Cumberland, the Montcalm and the Marriott, with the Churchill and Nobu a short stroll round Portman Square. The middle stretch has fewer hotels than people expect, so guests shopping near Bond Street often sleep a few turns south in Mayfair or north in Marylebone. At the Circus end, The Langham and the Treehouse face each other across Langham Place, and further east the Sanderson and The London EDITION share Berners Street. Our evening at The Langham notes cover the grandest of them. Every hotel here is named as a landmark she knows, never as a partner, and any hotel that has you as a guest will do.
Mansion flats and serviced apartments
Plenty of visitors to W1 never check into a hotel. Serviced apartments behind Portman Square, porter-run mansion blocks in Marylebone, a rented floor above a Fitzrovia shopfront: all are visited the same way. Rather than a room number, Clementine needs the street, the building and the door. If an entry panel wants a name, give the one you booked under and she will use it at the buzzer. Guests who want to sleep well in the middle of retail London should read our one street back advice before choosing where to stay.
A single check, then her knock
Before she sets off, you send two things into the WhatsApp chat: the full name your reservation is under, and the room number. That is the entire check, and it exists so that both sides know the booking is genuine. Her clothes suit the building, never the spotlight: a good coat over something tailored, flat shoes in her bag if rain is forecast. Crossing a lobby she looks like any guest arriving for a drink, because that is what she is. Her fee passes to her by hand once she is inside, and the booked time starts there.
Who Clementine offers first
Liana lives in Marylebone and is rarely more than a quarter of an hour from a hotel on this street; calm weeknights with a day's notice suit her best. Laura walks to the Marble Arch hotels from Paddington in about ten minutes and says yes to same day requests once it is past noon. Tina and Stacy are the names for tonight: Tina starts in the evening and arrives on the dot, while Stacy treats a message sent at seven as an invitation for that very night. Michelle answers within minutes on most evenings and spots a long day on your face before you mention it. Liana and Stacy both appear in the slim and slender group, if you like to browse that way.
If plans move
Send any change into the same chat. A new room number changes nothing else. A later start is fine if her diary allows, and with three hours' notice you can move or cancel at no cost. Running late yourself? There is a fifteen minute grace period; beyond it, the start is moved rather than the time trimmed. Enjoying the evening and hoping for more? Mention it while the clock is still running and, if her diary is clear, you move up a rung. Every step, in order, is on the booking page.
Hotel and flat visits, explained
Either works. Most guests simply send the room number and she takes the lift. If you would rather begin at the bar of The Langham or in the lounge at The Cumberland, name it in your message and the booking starts when she sits down beside you.
At any hour. The desk answers all night, and a request sent at two in the morning costs exactly what one sent at six in the evening does. The choice of names narrows after midnight, so writing earlier gives Clementine more to offer.
For a drink and an honest conversation after a long day, yes, and it is the length most first-time guests choose. If you expect to order dinner to the room or walk down to the bar, ninety minutes or two hours takes the clock out of the evening.
Yes. Any hotel in Zones 1 and 2 costs the same. For an address further out, Clementine prices the taxi both ways as a single sum up front; airport hotels at Heathrow or Gatwick need three hours at minimum.
