Uncover the Best Local Coworking Spaces in Melbourne: The Top 5 Picks

Are you searching for an office or coworking space in Melbourne? Take a look at the top 5 local options available. From laid-back and relaxed atmospheres to more formalized corporate environments, there is something for everyone.

Much like the city itself, Melbourne has a vibrant coworking scene that has quickly grown to offer a range of unique offerings for businesses of all sizes. In terms of available floor space, Melbourne sits just behind Sydney with ~23,475 sqm of flexible space available to rent. Pricing, however, has remained subdued, due to the pandemic and extended work-from-home restrictions.

While the rental cost of a desk is slowly rising, it is still well below the $750 per desk price hit in September 2021, making it the ideal time for businesses to reconsider their workspace needs and secure a premium office at a discounted rate.

Melbourne by the Numbers

Median Office Rate Per Person $728
Median Coworking Desk Rate Per Person $540
Flex Floorspace Available (sqm) 24,790
Available Desk Capacity 4,585

So, as you begin your search for office space, here are the top 5 local coworking spaces you should tour.
