Why choose a serviced office?

Many businesses are now choosing to use serviced offices because of their cost efficiency, flexibility and practicality. With over 100 years of combined experience of working within the London commercial office sector, our experts will help you find a serviced or co-working solution that fulfils the exact needs of your business.

Serviced office space can be found in some of London’s most recognisable commercial properties, from sky scrapers like the Gherkin and The Shard, to some of Marylebone and Mayfair’s period buildings.

Here is a quick overview to show you why serviced offices could be the solution for you.

What are Serviced Offices?

A serviced office, also known as a managed flexible office space, provides a complete plug-and-play office solution that’s ready for you to use. Your serviced office provider takes on the responsibility of maintaining the building and often provides additional services and facilities to enhance your working environment, from quirky breakout spaces, to pool tables or if your lucky your new building could have mini golf or running tracks on the rooftops! Having the freedom to come and go as your business grows is what appeals to many.
Serviced offices are totally flexible to suit your business needs and can vary in size from 2 or 3 workstations to 103 workstations; many have offices adjoined to accommodate larger amounts of employees.

Who uses a Serviced Office?

Simple answer? Anyone! Many home based or global companies often rent serviced offices initially to try out a new location for their business, without committing to a long term lease.
