Are you looking for a place in London to call home for your business? Perhaps you are drawn to working out of one of the many stunning period buildings that the capital is known for, but you’re eager to keep setup costs to a minimum, and keep a handle on monthly expenses ongoing? If so, a serviced office could be just what you need. Read on as we explore the benefits of renting serviced offices London wide, and shine a spotlight on some of the city’s most popular locations for commercial offices to let.
What’s so good about serviced offices?
Serviced offices present a wide array of benefits. From low setup costs to predictable monthly outgoings and a raft of added extras, there is a lot to like, and ample reasons why serviced offices London wide are proving to be the hot ticket.
The majority of serviced offices in London are nestled within iconic or listed period buildings. They have generally been through major refurbishment, and will therefore be well-equipped with all the latest modern conveniences and many of the features that today’s workforce demand.
From bicycle storage and shower facilities with complimentary linen and toiletries, to high speed internet access, smart controlled lighting and heating, comfort cooling and fully equipped kitchens, there is plenty that will help employers attract and retain exceptional talent.
Another advantage of serviced offices that London businesses get to enjoy is that all the costs are rolled into a single monthly fee. This includes rent and utilities, as well as services which may incorporate cleaning, business admin, reception and mail and call handling. And, because everything is in place when you move in, capital outlay is kept to a minimum.
