About Danielle

There is a stillness to Danielle that people mistake for shyness for about a minute. The figures are 170 cm and a curvy frame; the black hair is long and straight, and the brown eyes do most of her work before she has spoken a word. She dresses like someone who has stopped experimenting: dark, well cut, one piece of jewellery, heels chosen for the floor she is going to be standing on. At 29 she has the poise of a woman who has been the most composed person in several difficult rooms and did not need anyone to notice.

Underneath it she is warm and extremely dry. Her timing in English is excellent: she will let a boast sit in the air for two beats before rescuing it. She reads crime novels in bulk, keeps a spreadsheet of them, and is perfectly aware of how that sounds. She is interested in how things are built, which in SE1 gives her plenty to point at, and she is the rare companion who genuinely enjoys hearing about a project that went wrong.

Her London Bridge evening starts high. Oblix on the thirty second floor of The Shard, a table at the western end where the river bends and the whole city lies out like a lit circuit board, and a drink that lasts as long as the view deserves. She is not romantic about the lift, which takes under a minute and empties into a queue she would rather beat by arriving at 18:30. Afterwards she likes street level again, the arches towards Borough, and a slower hour. South Kensington is home, so the Jubilee line brings her in with the evening still ahead of her.

There is more about the district on the London Bridge page. The hour starts at £250 and the whole ladder is set out on rates. Two lines to booking and Maude does the rest.

Her figures are the desk figures, printed in full on the rates page, and the whole arrangement runs in one thread from the first line to the confirmation.

An evening with Danielle

The booking she is asked for most often runs like this. Lobby at half past six, up thirty two floors, and a table on the west side while there is still enough light to tell the river from the roads. She orders a martini, drinks half of it, and asks you something more interesting than anyone has asked you that week. Around eight the room fills and she suggests leaving before it does, which is the correct instinct. Down at street level the temperature drops ten degrees and she does not mention it. There is a walk through the arches towards the market, closed at that hour and better for it, and then either a table she has in mind on Stoney Street or the short ride back east. She is direct about what she is enjoying, which saves everybody guessing.

Before you write

Danielle, in her own words

Is the view worth the lift?

The first time, yes, completely. The second time you will be looking at the person opposite you, which is rather the point.

Where are you at the moment?

Out of the country until the middle of next month, seeing family. The desk has my dates and I do answer messages, just slowly.

Do you prefer a plan or an open evening?

A plan for the first hour and nothing after that. Knowing where dinner is removes the only dull conversation of the night.

Remarks

What guests have written

Nothing is written here for Danielle yet, which is usually what discretion looks like in E14. A note appears only when a guest writes one, she agrees to it, and the desk has checked that it reads as a first name, a month and nothing private.
