What a desk costs by area and office size
The CBD is not the top of the Melbourne market. Docklands and the inner south-east fringe both price above it for small suites, while the Hoddle Grid holds the deepest supply and the widest choice at every size.

Getting to work in Melbourne
Pick the line most of your team already uses, then the area. Every suburban train runs through the City Loop, so Flinders Street, Southern Cross, Melbourne Central, Parliament and Flagstaff each put you within a few minutes' walk of most CBD buildings, and Southern Cross is the gateway for regional Victoria and the airport bus. The tram network does the rest: the free tram zone covers the whole Hoddle Grid and Docklands, and single routes reach Southbank, South Melbourne, Carlton, Fitzroy and Collingwood in ten to fifteen minutes. Richmond and Cremorne sit at the junction where the eastern and south-eastern lines meet, which is why so many tech teams have settled there. South Yarra is one stop further on the Sandringham and Frankston lines.
Parking is easier here than in Sydney: 47% of listed offices in Victoria offer private parking, the highest share of any mainland state, mostly in the fringe suburbs rather than the CBD towers.
Coworking and hot desks in Melbourne
Rubberdesk lists 1 coworking listings across Melbourne, at a median of $550 per desk per month. A dedicated desk is your own spot in an open floor with the reception, kitchens and meeting rooms shared with the private offices around it; a hot desk is the cheaper turn-up version. Shared office space and coworking desks in Melbourne are listed on the Melbourne coworking page.
Serviced offices in Melbourne: what is included
Almost everything listed for rent or lease in Melbourne is serviced or managed space, so the monthly figure is close to all-in. A serviced office is let on a single monthly agreement that normally covers rent, outgoings, utilities, high speed internet, furniture, cleaning, building security, a staffed reception and shared kitchens. Across the offices listed in Victoria, 94% come furnished, 90% are air conditioned, 85% include meeting rooms and 85% offer 24 hour access, so those are safe to assume rather than negotiate. Check the meeting room allowance, printing, whether IT support is extra, and the security deposit, which is typically one to two months.
Managed offices, a whole floor fitted to your brief on a two or three year term and priced per floor rather than per desk, are a real option in the CBD and Docklands and suit teams of twenty upwards. The operators with the most listings in Melbourne on Rubberdesk are Hub Australia, Corporate Cubes, @Workspaces, The Commons and Compass Offices.

Office space in Melbourne: your questions answered
How much does office space cost in Melbourne?
The figure is all-in: rent, outgoings, utilities, internet, furniture, cleaning, security and reception on one monthly agreement, so a team of ten budgets roughly ten times the per-desk rate and receives no separate bills. Figures come from live listings and refresh weekly.
Is the Melbourne CBD the most expensive place for an office?
No, which surprises people. The cheaper end is north of the CBD: Carlton at around $600, Fitzroy at around $630 and Collingwood at $650, each a ten to fifteen minute tram ride from the centre.
Where is the cheapest office space near the Melbourne CBD?
Carlton, at around $600 a desk, is the cheapest area within a tram ride of the city, followed by Fitzroy and Collingwood. All three are converted warehouse and terrace stock with a creative and university crowd rather than corporate towers, which suits some teams and not others. If you want a tower and a tram to the door, Southbank at $800 matches the CBD rate with easier parking and the river in between. The saving against Docklands is several hundred dollars a desk a month whichever you choose.
What size of office can I find in Melbourne?
Anything from one desk to a floor for three hundred people, which is the widest range of any Australian city. The CBD alone carries 3,477 desks across around 320 listings, so a founder taking one room and a company moving a hundred people are looking at the same buildings. Rates fall per desk as offices get larger: a suite for one to four desks prices close to the median, while whole floors for fifty or more come in below it. The practical effect is that you should not settle: on any given week there are usually several genuine options at your size and budget within a few blocks of each other, which is what makes the rate negotiable.
What is included in a Melbourne serviced office?
Effectively everything except your own phone and IT choices. The monthly fee normally covers rent, outgoings, utilities, high speed internet, furniture, cleaning, building security, a staffed reception, and shared kitchens and breakout space. Across the offices listed in Victoria, 94% come furnished, 90% are air conditioned, 85% include meeting rooms and 85% offer 24 hour access; 47% offer private parking, the highest share of any mainland state, mostly in the fringe suburbs. What to check before you sign: the meeting room allowance, printing, whether IT support and phone lines are extra, and the security deposit, which is typically one to two months. Every Rubberdesk listing shows what a building includes, so you can compare two quotes on the same basis.
Should I take a serviced office or a managed office in Melbourne?
It comes down to headcount and how long you can commit. A serviced office is a fitted, furnished room inside an operator's building, let per desk on a monthly agreement with the reception, meeting rooms and kitchens shared: right for teams of one to about twenty who want to move fast and keep the option to grow or shrink. A managed office is a whole floor or self-contained suite fitted out to your brief and run for you, priced per floor on a two or three year term: right for teams of twenty upwards who want their own front door without a conventional lease. Melbourne's CBD and Docklands hold most of the managed floors in Victoria, and the fringe suburbs are almost entirely serviced.
How quickly can I move into an office in Melbourne?
Days rather than weeks. The room is already furnished, wired and staffed, so the agreement and the deposit are usually the only delay, and a week or two is typical. Managed offices, where an operator fits a floor out to your specification, take four to twelve weeks. Coworking desks, at a median of $550 a month in the CBD, can usually be started the same week and are the quickest way to get a small team working while a private office is arranged. If you need to be in by a particular date, say so at the outset and we will shortlist only buildings that can meet it. There is no charge to you.
