How Much Does Coworking Cost in Shoreditch?
Day rates in Shoreditch typically fall into three bands depending on what you book:
Hot desks (a shared desk in an open workspace) range from £25 to £45 per day in most Shoreditch locations. The lower end tends to be smaller independent spaces on Kingsland Road or Hackney Road, while the higher end covers premium operators on Curtain Road and Great Eastern Street with more extensive amenities.
Day offices (a private room for your team, booked by the day) start from around £40 to £65 per person per day. These work well for teams that need a private space for focused work or confidential calls without committing to a monthly contract.
Meeting rooms can be booked by the hour across many Shoreditch coworking venues. Browse
meeting rooms in Shoreditch separately if you only need a room for a few hours.
Most coworking day rates include wifi, printing, tea and coffee, and access to communal breakout areas. Some venues also include meeting room credits or guest passes as part of the daily fee.
FAQs
1. Can I book a coworking space in Shoreditch for just one day?
Yes. Most coworking spaces listed on Tally Workspace offer single-day bookings with no ongoing commitment. You can book a hot desk or day office for tomorrow and not return until you need to. Some spaces also offer half-day rates or hourly access for shorter visits.
2. What is the difference between coworking and renting a private office in Shoreditch?
Coworking gives you a shared desk in a communal workspace, booked and paid for by the day. A private office is your own enclosed space on a monthly contract (typically 3 to 12 months), with pricing per desk per month rather than per day. Coworking suits freelancers, remote workers and small teams who need flexibility. If your team is growing or you need a permanent base,
private offices in Shoreditch are usually more cost-effective from around 3 days per week onwards.
3. Which Shoreditch coworking spaces are best for freelancers?
Freelancers tend to prioritise price, atmosphere and networking over corporate amenities. Spaces on Kingsland Road and around Hoxton offer lower day rates (£25 to £35) with a more creative, independent feel. If community events and introductions matter to you, look for operators that run regular programming. Our

4. Do coworking day passes in Shoreditch include meeting room access?
It varies by venue. Some include a certain number of meeting room hours with your day pass, others charge separately per booking. If you only need a meeting room and not a coworking desk, it is usually cheaper to
book a Shoreditch meeting room by the hour directly rather than buying a full day pass.
5. Is Shoreditch or the City of London better for coworking?
It depends on your work and your clients. Shoreditch coworking spaces tend to attract startups, freelancers and creative businesses, with a more relaxed atmosphere and lower day rates.
City of London coworking is better if you need to be close to financial services clients or prefer a more corporate environment. The two areas are about 15 minutes apart on foot, so some people use both depending on the day.
