Leidseplein, as it sleeps
Hotels near the square run from the Art Nouveau landmark on the Leidseplein itself to the canal-house rows along the Leidsekade, the big modern rooms toward the Marnixstraat and single rooms stacked above the shops on the Leidsestraat. What they share after midnight is a front desk that never looks twice at anyone. The practical detail that matters most for oil is what you carry back from the night. After a club or a packed concert hall, skin holds sweat, terrace smoke and the evening's spilled drinks, and oil glides far better over a body that has just been rinsed, so take a five-minute shower while she is on her way. Drink a large glass of water too. An oil session is deeply relaxing, and after several rounds that relaxation can tip straight into sleep before the hour has done its work. Staying in one of the narrower canal-house rooms? The single bed is no obstacle, since oil is one of the few formats that works as well on a single mattress as on a king.
