How to read the times
Times are typical door-to-door by taxi or ride app between 10:00 and 16:00 or after 20:00. Between 07:30–10:00 and 17:00–20:00 Bucharest traffic is among the slowest in Europe: plan for double. A companion coming to a hotel in the north from Unirii needs about 25 minutes in the evening and closer to an hour at six o’clock — say so in your first message and agree a time with margin.
Ask your hotel two things
Many international hotels in Bucharest ask that visitors stop at reception, and some only allow registered guests on the room floors after a set hour. Check your hotel’s visitor policy on arrival; it avoids an awkward moment in the lobby. Hotels with a lounge or bar on the ground floor make a first meeting easier.
Where the visits come from
68 of 72 active profiles in Bucharest list visits to hotels or outcall. The district column counts only those whose listed area matches the hotel’s district — a companion from another area can still come, it just takes longer.
