Who a serviced office suits

Start-ups that want month-to-month flexibility; established firms opening a London base; project teams with a fixed end date; and companies that want a West End or City address without a fit-out project. If you want to brand the space and stay for years, see managed offices.

How to choose: checklist

Set a total monthly budget, then check whether quotes are per person or per office.

Size honestly: ask how many people the room really fits (about 35 sq ft per person is a useful guide).

Check the commute for your team: nearest station and walking minutes.

Ask what is in the fee: business rates, service charge, utilities, cleaning, meeting-room credits.

Ask about VAT, deposit, notice period and break options.

Ask about access hours and whether you can add rooms later.

Serviced or managed: what is the difference?

A serviced office is a furnished, ready-to-use office in a building that the operator runs. You pay one monthly fee that typically covers rent, utilities, internet, cleaning and reception, you share facilities such as meeting rooms and kitchens, and the agreement is short and flexible, so you can usually add or drop space as your team changes.

A managed office is a private space that the operator fits out and sets up around your business, usually with your branding, layout and furniture. The operator handles the day-to-day running (maintenance, cleaning, connectivity and similar), so you get the control of your own office without managing it yourself. Managed offices normally come with a longer commitment and a more tailored price.

The labels are used differently by different operators, so always confirm in writing what is included before you sign.
