Petite companions, seven names between 158 and 169 centimetres
Seven names on the board are petite. Six of them measure between 158 and 163 centimetres, and Tiffany, at 169, is listed here for her frame rather than her height. What the column does not tell you is how much room each of them takes up in a conversation, which in two cases is all of it and in one case is deliberately very little.
The seven are spread across all four home districts and across every age band on the board, from Jasmin at 22 to Sonya at 32, so a petite shortlist can be narrowed by district and temperament without running out of names.
Petite: 7 companions on the board
Every line below is here because her checked fact sheet puts her under petite. Open a profile for her photo set, then give the desk her name and your hotel.
The seven, in order of height
Tina, 158, 26, Jordaan. Athletic, espresso brown hair, the most self-assured woman on the board and serious about records and tailoring. Jasmin, 160, 22, Amsterdam Centrum. Salsa two nights a week, perfume as a private catalogue, a bar order that arrives right. Rosa, 160, 25, De Pijp. Curly chestnut hair, bread baked properly, and no interest in hurrying anyone. Lea, 161, 23, Oud-Zuid. Wavy auburn hair, theatre and ceramics, and a genuine liking for a changed plan.
Sonya, 162, 32, Jordaan. Ballet-trained, meditates daily, collects fragrance, and sets a slow pace in the first ten minutes. Lucy, 163, 24, Jordaan. Curly dark hair, astronomy, espresso and a dawn run along the Amstel. Tiffany, 169, 24, Amsterdam Centrum. Chocolate brown hair, street photography, a standard for champagne and a list of which hotel bars deserve an hour.
Where the column is strongest
A hotel visit with a fixed arrival window is where five of these seven are booked most often, because three of them are listed within a few minutes of the canal ring and two more inside it. Tina and Lucy in the Jordaan, Jasmin and Tiffany in Centrum: the arrival windows are short and they hold. Sonya is the name for the visit at the end of a heavy week, when the evening should bring the pulse down rather than up.
For the city rather than the hotel, Jasmin and Lea are late-evening bookings, a bar after dinner or a supper after a show. Rosa takes market mornings and long lunches as gladly as dinners.
Style notes
Jasmin's playful boutique-hotel chic and Tiffany's beachside boho with sequin sparkle are the brightest wardrobes in the column. Sonya's understated evening elegance and Tina's clean, uncomplicated lines are the quietest. Rosa, Lucy and Lea dress in soft daylight fabrics, and all three look right on a terrace and in a hotel restaurant without changing in between.
Districts
The Jordaan lists three of the seven, Amsterdam Centrum two, De Pijp and Oud-Zuid one apiece. The airport hotels are within ninety minutes of notice from any of them, and the Zuidas is a straight run from the Jordaan.
Neighbouring columns
Sonya and Tina both appear under athletic, Rosa under curvy, and Lucy under slim. If height is the point rather than the opposite, the tall column starts at 172 centimetres. Name one or two of the seven, add the hotel and the hour, and the desk confirms who is on schedule. From €180 per hour; a supper after the theatre is quoted in one message and agreed before she sets out.
