A guide to office space in Mayfair

Renting a serviced office in Mayfair provides businesses with a prestigious postcode to impress clients and bolster their reputation. 

Businesses also enjoy excellent amenities, beautifully-designed buildings and a location in one of the world’s cultural and commercial hubs.

The serviced office market in Mayfair is very competitive – rates are higher than ever before, and it has become the most expensive place in the world for office space.

The Crossrail development at Bond Street Station will provide a great transport boost to the area – the station's eastern ticket hall will be located in Hanover Square, which will also provide a new entrance to the station platforms under Mayfair at the corner of Hanover Square.

The popular locations of Brook Street, Hanover Square or Stratton Street are ideal for companies looking to move into Mayfair. 

However, neighbouring Piccadilly is a good option for businesses looking for something a little more cost-effective

Costs

Serviced office costs in Mayfair typically range from £900 – 1300 per desk, although this will vary depending on requirements and exact location. 

Costs are inclusive of amenities, which can cover Internet, meeting rooms, IT and administrative support, lounges and kitchens, car parking, videoconferencing and AV equipment, among others.

Office sizes

Instant offer a great variety of flexible office solutions across a range of sizes, and are able to accommodate most enquiries, from one person through to 100 people or more, depending on the specifics. 

Serviced office providers can be flexible with the layout of the workspace, and are happy to discuss partitioning to fit a particular requirement.

Co-working is not particularly prevalent in Mayfair; the majority of requests are for serviced office space.

Why choose Mayfair?

As mentioned, the prestigious location, excellent transport links and quality of the buildings and amenities are all reasons why businesses choose to make Mayfair their corporate home. 

Furthermore, serviced offices are an ideal option as conventional leases in Mayfair are expensive and extremely hard to come by.
