What a Hong Kong business centre actually costs (we priced 3,650 of them)

A private office in a Hong Kong business centre costs about HK$5,000 per desk a month, with most quotes falling between HK$4,000 and HK$6,500. That figure comes from 3,650 real quotes we prepared for Hong Kong companies between January 2025 and July 2026, not from public rack rates. Across the city a 1 to 2 desk suite runs HK$10,000 a month, a 3 to 5 desk office around HK$18,000, and a 6 to 10 desk office around HK$39,000. District moves that number more than anything else: Central runs about HK$6,750 per desk, Kwun Tong about HK$3,020. Nextspace is Hong Kong's free office broker, and below is what drives the number, what the headline price leaves out, and where the room to negotiate sits.

How we got these numbersFrom 3,650 quotes across 65 operators and 22 Hong Kong districts, January 2025 to July 2026. We report the median and the middle 50%, and suppress any slice with fewer than three quotes, which is why only seven districts appear by name below. The per-desk figure is the one we track over time, because it stays stable when the mix of deal sizes shifts. Our quote records do not tag space type, so these are prices for enclosed offices in business centres and serviced centres, not hot desks. Prices companies were actually quoted, not listing headlines.

Read the per-desk rate down the list and it falls as the team grows: a two-person suite costs more per head than a ten-person one, because business centres price in volume.

What it costs by district

District moves the bill more than any other single factor. These are the seven districts where we hold enough quotes to publish a figure.

Central carries the biggest premium in the city, and it is also where we hold the most data, so its figure is the most reliable of the seven. Kwun Tong, at the other end, prices at roughly 55% below Central for the same desk count, usually in newer buildings. Districts not listed here had too few quotes to publish honestly.

The advertised rate is rarely your first invoice. Before you compare two centres, check for a deposit (around two months), a one-off setup fee, meeting-room overage beyond the included credits, and extras like parking or after-hours air-conditioning.

District is the biggest single driver of the price. Central sits at the top of the market at about HK$6,750 per desk, with Admiralty close behind at HK$5,540. Cross the harbour to Kwun Tong, Kowloon East's second business district, and the same desk runs about HK$3,020, roughly 55% less, usually in newer buildings. Even staying on the island, Wan Chai at HK$4,010 and Causeway Bay at HK$4,500 cost around a third less than Central. If the address is not part of your pitch, looking one district out is the fastest way to cut the bill without cutting quality.

How much does a business centre cost in Hong Kong per month?

About HK$5,000 per desk a month across Hong Kong (middle 50% HK$4,000 to 6,500), from 3,650 real quotes. A 1 to 2 desk suite runs HK$10,000; a 6 to 10 desk office around HK$39,000. Central is the most expensive district at about HK$6,750 per desk; Kwun Tong the lowest we can report, at about HK$3,020.

Are there hidden costs?

Watch for a deposit (around two months), a one-off setup fee, and meeting-room overage beyond the included credits. A like-for-like comparison lines up the inclusions, not just the headline rate.

Which is the lowest-cost area for a business centre in Hong Kong?

Kwun Tong, in Kowloon East, is the most cost-effective district we hold robust data for, at about HK$3,020 per desk a month, roughly 55% below Central. Wan Chai (HK$4,010) and Causeway Bay (HK$4,500) sit in between. Central (HK$6,750) and Admiralty (HK$5,540) are the most expensive.

Can I negotiate the rate?

Yes, in most cases, on term length, timing, and inclusions. A single company enquiring cold pays close to the rack rate; a broker who places dozens of teams a month negotiates against the current floor, which is what we do, free.
