How much does an office cost in Luxembourg? A price guide for freelancers and small businesses
Finding an office in Luxembourg isn't always easy. Between traditional commercial rents, coworking solutions, and private offices, the options vary greatly. Here's a guide to help you better understand the rates and choose the option best suited to your business situation.
Traditional office space: High long-term costs
Traditional commercial leases involve significant commitments. Average monthly rents range between €25 and €40/m² depending on the location, plus utilities, development costs, maintenance, and management.
This type of solution is best suited to well-established businesses with a stable team and a long-term need for space. For a freelancer or small business, the overall cost quickly becomes difficult to absorb.
Coworking: Flexibility and more affordable rates
Coworking offers access to a professional workspace without the constraints of a commercial lease.
Packages are tailored to your needs: landline, open access, daily or monthly rates. Prices start around €200/month for a workstation in a business center, and can go up to €400/month for a workstation in a premium business center.
This type of offer is aimed at freelancers, self-employed entrepreneurs, and start-ups looking for a workspace without hidden costs.
Private office: A good compromise for greater comfort
For those seeking more peace and quiet, private offices in a business center are a good alternative.
Rates vary depending on the size of the office, the equipment, and the services included. Expect to pay between €250 and €700/month for a small office in Luxembourg.
This solution allows you to work in a quiet environment while benefiting from shared facilities such as meeting rooms, a kitchen, and cleaning services.
Business address: Who is it suitable for?
Business domiciliation allows you to have a professional address without renting an office. This is an option chosen by some entrepreneurs to set up their business at a lower cost.
Prices range from €30 to €100/month depending on the service provider and the services included (mail handling, reception, etc.). This service does not provide a workspace, only an address.
It is important to note that, according to the Financial Sector Supervisory Commission (CSSF), any domiciliation activity carried out outside of regulated professions, such as operating a business center or coworking space, requires prior approval from the CSSF as a specialized PSF.
Therefore, if you are looking for a coworking space offering domiciliation services in Luxembourg, it is recommended to check that the establishment has the necessary approvals issued by the CSSF. Our Colors Business Center does not provide registered office services within the meaning of the Law of April 5, 1993.

Conclusion: Choosing the right workspace for your budget
The cost of an office varies greatly depending on the type of space and the services required. Coworking and private offices now offer serious alternatives to traditional solutions, especially for professionals seeking flexibility.
Comparing offers and clearly defining your needs allows you to find a functional professional space that fits your budget without sacrificing quality of work.
