Nights out, company until the last departure
A night out is the format for a guest who did not fly to Amsterdam to sit in a hotel. It starts at a bar, moves to a table, and then goes wherever the city is going that night: a jazz room off the Amstel, a cocktail counter in the centre, a club in a former gasworks, a warehouse on the north shore with a band in it. Your companion knows which doors justify a queue and which do not, and she is dressed for the ones you pick.
Nights out run late by definition, so the desk quotes the whole span as one number, in writing, before she sets off. The rates page shows the €180 opening hour and explains why longer formats are quoted individually. Notice is the usual sixty minutes inside the ring, though the choice of companion is widest if you ask before dinner.
Companions suited to nights out
Chosen for this format from what each profile says about her, not at random. Open any line for her photo set and her details, then give the desk her name.
Where the late city actually is
Not on Rembrandtplein, mostly. The centre has its cocktail counters and its jazz rooms, Amsterdam Centrum after eleven is a walking district, and the Leidseplein has the loud venues if that is the plan. Amsterdam West has the gasworks clubs at the Westerpark. Amsterdam Noord has the shipyard halls at NDSM with a ferry back at any hour. De Pijp has the basements. Decide the direction before you leave the hotel, because the late venues in this city are spread out rather than stacked.
Letting her choose the door
Companions on this page go out in this city. Tell the desk the kind of night, music, comedy, cocktails, dancing, a long conversation somewhere loud, and she will propose two or three places and a route between them. If you already have a plan, she follows it. If you have a reservation for the first stop and nothing after, that is the most common version and the easiest to build on.

- Where it starts, and whether you have anything booked
- Roughly when it should end, so the figure is right
How the night is timed
A night out is quoted for a span, and the span is agreed at the start: from nine until two, from ten until closing, from dinner until whenever the last ferry goes. Extensions on the night are usual and are confirmed with one message to the desk on the same basis, with a straight no if she has a morning. The desk stays open all night, so a change at one in the morning is answered as quickly as one at one in the afternoon.
Getting back
The city empties in stages. Trams thin out after midnight, the night buses take over, the ferries to Noord keep running, and taxis are easy at the Leidseplein and harder outside a warehouse at three. None of that is your problem: the booking runs until the agreed hour, and how she gets home afterwards is arranged between her and the desk. If the night ends at your hotel, she leaves from there at the hour that was fixed. If it ends at a club, say so, and the span is quoted to that door.
What to wear, and what she will
Whatever the venues want. Tell the desk the plan and she dresses for it, which for a jazz room and a warehouse club are different things. If the night starts at a restaurant with a dress code and ends somewhere with a bouncer, she will have thought about both. The one condition of every booking that matters most on this page: a guest should be able to hold a conversation at every stop of the evening, including the last one.
Who is good at one in the morning
Jasmin dances salsa, mixes drinks and is curious about every counter in the centre. Molly knows house music, craft cocktails and which basements actually have a sound system. Stacy is bold, spontaneous and would rather be at a comedy night than a gala. Tina is confident, warm and serious about cocktails. Angelika is the one for a jazz room and knows which trios are worth the cover. The aged 22 to 25 list overlaps heavily with this page. The booking page describes the message that starts a night.
Questions about nights out
How late can a night out run?
As late as the city does. The span is agreed at the start and extended by message on the night if her morning allows it. The desk answers at every hour.
Does she choose the venues?
If you want her to. Tell the desk the kind of night and she proposes places and a route. If you have a plan, she follows it.
How is a night out priced?
As one figure for the span you agree, quoted when you describe the night and written into the thread before she sets off.
Can a night out end at the hotel?
Yes, and most do. Say at the outset roughly when the night should end and whether it ends at the hotel, and the figure covers the whole.

Nights out, settled in one message.
Send the hotel, the hour and the format. The desk replies with who is free and what it costs, before anything is agreed.
