Escorts in Hyde Park: eight plates within a walk of Rotten Row
Hyde Park is London's great green room, some three hundred and fifty acres of lawn, water and plane trees, with several of the city's most celebrated hotels looking into it from every side. This edit sees it from the south-east, from Hyde Park Corner and the Knightsbridge gates, where our Belgravia and Knightsbridge faces live close by. Hyde Park escorts on this page come from both sides of it, though: Knightsbridge to the south, Paddington to the north.
Below: the park from our corner, the hotels that ring it, the stations on each edge, arrival timing, a sketched evening and the companions who live closest. From £400 an hour, and the rest of the price ladder sits on our rates page.

The south-east corner, from the Wellington Arch
The south-east corner begins at the Wellington Arch, marooned on its island in the traffic, with Apsley House beside it, the Duke of Wellington's home and still, by old tradition, Number One London. Through the gates, Rotten Row runs west as a sandy riding track beneath the trees, and the Rose Garden sits just inside the corner, at its best in June. Walk on and the Serpentine opens out, with the lido on the south shore, the boathouses on the north and the Serpentine galleries across the bridge in Kensington Gardens.
The park is open from five in the morning until midnight, and its character changes through the day: riders and runners early, office lunches on the grass at noon, and in the evening a long golden hour when the water turns copper and the paths empty. In summer the concert stage in the eastern half draws big crowds on its July weekends, and in winter the same ground becomes a fairground of lights. Neither troubles the hotels much, but both affect the traffic around them.
The guests who write from the park hotels chose their rooms for the windows and would like someone to share the view with. Many are on long stays, and a good number ask for a walk before dinner.

Six hotels on the park's edges
These are venues we arrive at, listed to help you place them; not one of them has a connection with the edit, and your companion enters as your guest.
On our own corner stand SW1X 7TA, the Regency house at Hyde Park Corner, and SW1X 7LA, a few minutes west along Knightsbridge, with rooms that look straight across the grass. Up the eastern edge on Park Lane, W1K 1QA surveys the park from beneath its famous canopy, and at Marble Arch, W1H 7DL is the big, busy house facing the arch.
Along the northern edge, W2 2TY is the tall tower at Lancaster Gate with park views from almost every floor, and W2 4RJ stands on the Bayswater Road looking into Kensington Gardens.
Stations on four edges, and the timing
Lancaster Gate, on the Central line, is about 2 minutes from the Italian Gardens at the park's north-west. Marble Arch, also on the Central, is roughly 3 minutes from Speakers' Corner. The Piccadilly line stops at Hyde Park Corner, about 3 minutes from the Wellington Arch, and again at Knightsbridge, around 5 minutes from the Albert Gate.
From Belgravia and Knightsbridge the south-side hotels are the nearer run and the northern ones a longer one, since Park Lane is rarely quick after dark. Either way the park lies inside the first two zones, so the ride is part of the rate, and once Rosie confirms you can expect her in about an hour, sometimes more, and the thread will name the minute. On concert weekends and during the winter fair, Park Lane and Knightsbridge slow down after dark, so give Rosie a fixed time on those evenings and your companion will be there on it.
Rosie takes your reservation name and room once, in the chat, and your companion receives the fee from you when she steps in.
Dusk on the Serpentine, sketched
An evening in late September. A guest at SW1X 7LA books two hours from half past six, £750. Sonya is in the lobby at twenty-five past, in a simple dark dress and flat shoes for the gravel. They cross into the park, follow the south shore of the Serpentine as the water darkens, and come back by the Rose Garden to the hotel bar, where the trees have become a black silhouette against the Knightsbridge lights and the conversation has only just found its stride.
Faces close to the park
From Knightsbridge, Sonya, Margo and Bianka live a short walk from the south side. Violetta, from Belgravia, loves the rooftop at Grosvenor Place for its view over the Wellington Arch and the trees. For the northern hotels the closest are the Paddington faces, Nora, Vanessa and Laura, whose homes sit near Lancaster Gate. Every companion in the edit comes to the park hotels at the same rates.
Around the park, and back to SW1
South of the Albert Gate lies Knightsbridge; across Hyde Park Corner, the Belgravia squares and the rest of SW1. Park Lane and Mayfair run along the eastern edge, Bayswater and Lancaster Gate along the north, and Kensington Gardens continues to the west. All of them are covered on the same terms, even though they have no page in this edit.

Questions
Asked about this district
4 answers. Tap a question to open it; anything missing, ask Rosie directly.
Yes. Rosie answers around the clock, and daytime bookings are priced exactly like evenings, from £400 for an hour. A walk to the Serpentine and back fits comfortably into two hours at £750.
SW1X 7TA and SW1X 7LA, on the south-east corner, sit closest to the Knightsbridge and Belgravia faces. The northern hotels are closest to the companions based in Paddington.
Only if you had hoped for a walk. The hotels are open all night and your companion can arrive at any hour, but a stroll by the water needs to finish before the gates close at midnight.
Yes. Any well lit public landmark suits a first hello; tell Rosie which one and when, and your companion will be waiting beside it.
