Serviced Offices in other cities

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.
