5 Best Coworking Spaces in London (2026)

Independently ranked by our review of ratings, reviews and reputation · How we chose

By Fenris Morrow, Expert in Professional Services · ✓ Data verified August 2026 · 8 min read

Not every coworking space in London is built the same way, and picking the wrong one means paying for amenities you'll never touch. Across the venues on this page, ratings range from 4.4 to 4.8, and review counts span from just under 100 to nearly 200, so the deciding factor is less about quality and more about whether you want a hot desk, a private office, or a members' club with a bar attached.

Short answer: ARBORETUM leads on review volume at 4.5 stars across 191 reviews, combining coworking with a members' club and event space in Leicester Square. eOffice Soho HQ (4.8, 89 reviews) holds the highest rating for a dedicated coworking setup, while 116 Pall Mall (4.7, 126 reviews) suits anyone who also needs event or meeting space in a historic building.

How we score

Rating is the live Google average for each venue. Review volume measures how many members have actually left a review, ranked against the others on this page. Confidence blends rating with volume, so a strong score built on 89 reviews is weighed differently than one built on nearly 200. No business can pay to change these numbers.

How much does coworking cost in London? (2026)

Pricing spans day passes, hourly hot desks and monthly memberships, and none of these venues publish a single flat rate, so confirm current pricing directly, since it varies by desk type and contract length.

JobTypical price
Dedicated desk membership (eOffice)From £599/month

Pricing published on eOffice Soho HQ’s website as of August 2026; other venues did not list flat rates publicly.

Serving all of London

These spaces are concentrated across Leicester Square, Pall Mall, Soho, St James’s and the Strand, all within Zone 1, so if you’re searching for coworking near me in London, most of these venues are a short walk from any central London office.

What to ask before you join a coworking space

  • What membership tiers are available, and what’s included at each level?
  • Is a hot desk, dedicated desk, or private office better for my work style?
  • Are meeting rooms included, or billed separately by the hour?
  • What are the cancellation or downgrade terms on my membership?
  • Is the space typically busy or quiet during the hours I plan to work?

Frequently asked questions

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from public Google data. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner (badge + top placement), but that never changes another business’s score or position.

How did you choose these coworking spaces?

We compared real Google ratings and review counts for coworking venues across London, weighing consistency of feedback over time.

How often is this updated?

This page was last verified in August 2026 and is refreshed periodically as ratings and reviews change.

Can I try a coworking space before committing to a membership?

Several of these venues, including ARBORETUM, offer day passes so you can test the space before signing up for a longer membership.

Do any of these spaces host events as well as coworking?

Yes, both ARBORETUM and 116 Pall Mall combine coworking with event and conference space.

The bottom line

If you want a dedicated, high-rated coworking setup, start with eOffice Soho HQ. If you want your membership to also cover events, a gym or a social scene, ARBORETUM or Soho Works are the better fit.
