Sydney has a deep coworking market, from large operators in CBD towers to small boutique spaces in Surry Hills. If you are searching for coworking Sydney options, start by deciding how often you will use the space. A hot desk or day pass suits occasional use, a dedicated desk suits regular attendance, and a private office suits a team that needs a lockable room.
To build this list we checked each operator’s own website for a real Sydney address, the membership types offered and any published prices. Where a site gives no prices, we say so rather than rely on third-party figures. Multi-site brands such as Spaces and Regus are listed once with their locations named, and prices shown are in Australian dollars unless stated.
For other local guides, see our Sydney services hub. Rates and terms change, so confirm them with the operator before you commit.

The Commons lists six Sydney locations: four in the CBD at 121 Castlereagh Street, 388 George Street, 39 Martin Place and 32 York Street, plus inner-city sites at 20-40 Meagher Street in Chippendale and 285A Crown Street in Surry Hills. Its website offers coworking with 24/7 access, private offices, enterprise solutions, on-demand day passes for hybrid teams and virtual offices, as well as meeting rooms, event spaces and podcast and photography studios for hire. Each location page lists nearby public transport with walking times. Prices are not published, so you need to enquire. The mix of CBD and inner-city sites makes it a good match for people who want a base near clients but a quieter option closer to home.
Christie Spaces has a Sydney site at 3 Spring Street and a North Sydney site at 56 Berry Street, with another address at 100 Walker Street listed for meeting and boardroom bookings. It is one of the few operators here that publishes starting prices: day passes from $45 a day, virtual offices from $95 a month, hot desks from $375 a month and private offices from $450 a month. Larger project and enterprise offices start at $6,000 and $10,000 a month. Membership includes 24/7 access, meeting rooms, barista-style coffee and tea, unlimited internet, an on-site team and IT helpdesk, and social events. These are starting prices, so check what applies to your site and term. It suits freelancers and small teams comparing costs.
Hub Australia lists four Sydney locations: Hub Customs House at Level 3, 31 Alfred Street; Hub Hyde Park at Level 3, 223 Liverpool Street, Darlinghurst; Hub Martin Place at Level 1, 44 Martin Place; and Hub Wynyard at Level 11, 10 Carrington Street. Its website offers office space, office suites with internal meeting rooms, dedicated desks with secure storage, flexible memberships, day access and business addresses, and describes a hospitality-inspired service with curated programming. Prices are not published, so call or enquire to compare plans. Because the sites sit close to major train stations, Hub works well for staff who commute from across Greater Sydney. It suits established small and mid-sized teams that want a professional setting rather than a startup atmosphere.
Tank Stream Labs is the community-focused brand of the Tank Stream group, which also runs Tank Stream Suites for premium private offices. Its Sydney addresses include Level 2 and 3, 333 Kent Street, Level 31 and 23, 52 Martin Place, Level 33, 264 George Street (Australia Square), Level 17 and 18, International Tower 3, 300 Barangaroo Avenue, and 24 Campbell Street. The website lists dedicated desks, hot desks, day passes, day offices, private offices and virtual memberships, plus meeting rooms, event venues and wellness facilities including a sauna and steam room. The group reports more than 2,000 members across eight locations in Australia. No prices are published. It suits startups and scale-ups that want events, a community and a CBD address.
Servcorp operates coworking from premium towers across Sydney, including Chifley Tower, Tower One Barangaroo, 25 Martin Place, Market Street, Gateway at Macquarie Place, 100 Mount Street in North Sydney, Westfield Tower 2 in Bondi Junction, Parramatta Square, Avaya House in Macquarie Park and Nexus Norwest. Its prices page shows hot desks from about $200 to $250 a month, dedicated desks on a 12-month term from about $360 to $680 a month, and private offices from $750 a month at Parramatta Square up to more than $3,000 a month in the CBD. Memberships roll monthly, with one month’s written notice to cancel. It suits individuals and small teams who want a high-end address and a suburban option outside the CBD.
Spaces, part of the same group as Regus, lists twelve Sydney locations including 20 Martin Place, 60 Martin Place, 70 Phillip Street, Darling Park Tower 2 on Sussex Street, 321 Pitt Street, 680 George Street, The Brewery at Central Park in Chippendale, Balmain, North Sydney, Chatswood and Lane Cove West. Published starting prices include dedicated desks from $7 per person per day, an all access cowork plan from $13 per person per day, and meeting rooms from $35 an hour. The page shows two different day pass prices, so confirm the current rate. It does not say which desk types each site offers. The wide network suits hybrid workers who want to work near home on some days and in the CBD on others.
Fishburners is a startup community whose Residency programme is based at 477 Pitt Street in the Tech Central Innovation Hub. The site describes Fishburners as Australia’s largest community of tech startups, though it does not publish a member count. The Residency offers flexible part-time or full-time access, with meeting rooms, breakout spaces and fast WiFi on site. Early stage pricing starts at $380 a month, and the site mentions more than 35 pro bono mentors and weekly community meetups. A separate Passport membership gives access to the network and events. It is aimed at founders rather than general freelancers, so it suits technology startups that want mentors, investors and peers close by.
Your Desk describes its Surry Hills space as boutique and places it close to Central station’s trains and buses. Its website publishes prices: virtual offices from $100 a month, part-time access from $350 a month with no lock-in contract, dedicated desks from $600 a month on a month-to-month or 12-month agreement, and private offices for up to six people from $4,500 a month. Hot desks can be booked for drop-in use, though no price is listed. Members get phone booths and conference rooms at no charge, on-site staff who handle mail, high-speed internet, printers, communal kitchens and 24/7 access on dedicated desk and private office plans. It suits freelancers and small creative or professional firms who prefer a smaller, friendlier space.
A hot desk is an unreserved seat, ideal if you work from home most days. A dedicated desk is yours alone and lets you leave equipment in place. A private office is a locked room for a team. Many operators also sell day passes and part-time plans, which can be cheaper than a dedicated desk if you attend two or three days a week.
Some operators offer rolling monthly memberships with one month’s notice, while dedicated desks and offices are often cheaper on a 12-month term. Ask about notice periods, deposits and whether you can move between sites. Be careful with promotional starting prices, which can assume a longer commitment than you want.
Published starting prices vary widely: day passes from about $45, hot desks from roughly $200 to $375 a month, dedicated desks from about $360 to $680 a month in some towers, and private offices from several hundred to several thousand dollars. Check whether quoted prices include GST, and ask for a total that covers any fees.
Look for phone booths and meeting rooms if you take calls, 24/7 access if your hours vary, and kitchens, printing and mail handling. Ask how many meeting room hours are included and whether extra hours are charged. If you want the address for your business, confirm that mail handling is part of the plan.
Most CBD sites are within a short walk of a train station, light rail or ferry. Check the walk from the nearest stop and the travel time from where you live. A suburban site in North Sydney, Parramatta or Chatswood can cut a long commute, even if it has fewer community events than a CBD space.
The best Sydney coworking space depends on your work pattern and budget. Founders may prefer Tank Stream Labs or Fishburners for community, teams that want clear published rates may look at Christie Spaces or Servcorp, and hybrid workers may find the Spaces network or The Commons more convenient across different suburbs.
Visit two or three spaces at the time of day you would normally work, ask for a total price including GST, and read the notice terms before signing. For more local guides, browse the Sydney services hub, or add your own space through the submit your company page.
