Desk rates, monthly totals and square foot prices can be hard to compare. Here's how each type of space is quoted.

   It depends on the space type. The space type guide on spacebly (November 2026) uses these units:
   Private offices and coworking desks: per desk per month.
   Managed offices: per sq ft per year.
   Meeting rooms: per hour.

   Office listings on spacebly show a monthly price for the office. Where it's the lowest available suite, you'll see 'from' in front of it. Where an operator hasn't published a price, you'll see Price on Request.

   Market figures such as the spacebly Price Index and the calculators stay per desk per month, excluding VAT. That makes it easier to compare buildings like for like.

   The office desk budget calculator by spacebly turns a desk count into a monthly and yearly budget: https://spacebly.com/tools/office-budget-calculator
