# How Much Does Coworking Cost in Amsterdam and the Netherlands in 2026?

Median coworking prices in Amsterdam by product and district, what the monthly fee covers and how flexible terms compare with a lease. Data as of November 2026.

In Amsterdam, a coworking membership costs a median of about €190 per month for a flexible desk and about €250 for a fixed desk of your own, according to the CoworkingView Price Index in November 2026. A desk in a private office runs at a median of about €500 per person per month. Across all products the city median is €410 per desk, from 25 price points in 7 buildings. Amsterdam is the only Dutch city where we have enough data to publish a median: Utrecht, Rotterdam and Eindhoven have listings, but not yet a sample we would put a number on.

_Data as of 4 November 2026. Medians are per desk per month, in euros, from the [Price Index](https://coworkingview.com/en/tools/price-index). District figures are the median of the lowest monthly option advertised by each listing in that district, rounded. They are reference points, not quotes: every [Amsterdam listing](https://coworkingview.com/en/coworking/amsterdam) shows its own live price._

## How we compiled these numbers

Each listing on CoworkingView carries the monthly prices its operator advertises. The Price Index takes the comparable desk prices across buildings and publishes a median only once a city clears a minimum sample, which Amsterdam does. For the district table we went one step lower: for every district with at least three priced listings we took each listing's cheapest monthly option and reported the median of those. Individual operators' prices live on their listings, where they stay current.

The Price Index headline across all products

A fixed desk costs around €60 a month more than a flexible one at the median. If you are in four or five days a week, a seat that is always yours, with storage, costs little extra. Private offices are where the spread is widest, because size, floor and building class all feed the price: a two-person room in the canal ring and a ten-person suite in Zuidas sit in the same column of the table above. To see only closed rooms, use the [Amsterdam private offices](https://coworkingview.com/en/coworking/amsterdam/private-offices) page.

Below the flexible desk there are also part-time memberships and day passes. Some come in well under the median, which is why the cheapest "from" price on a listing is not always a full-time desk. Read what the entry option includes before comparing it with another building's.

How to read it: Centrum and the canal ring are close to each other in price and give the most choice, with historic buildings and short walks from Centraal. Zuidas is the business district and the most expensive in our data by a clear margin, which reflects the tower floors and the corporate clientele around the WTC and Gustav Mahlerplein. Schiphol, at about €310, sits close to Centrum and suits teams that fly every week.

Outside these four, [Amsterdam-Noord](https://coworkingview.com/en/coworking/amsterdam/amsterdam-noord), [Zuidoost](https://coworkingview.com/en/coworking/amsterdam/amsterdam-zuidoost) and [Buitenveldert](https://coworkingview.com/en/coworking/amsterdam/buitenveldert) have two listings each in our data, too few for a district figure. Nieuw-West, Oost and Sloterdijk have one each. For deeper reads on specific areas, see our guides to [private offices in Zuidas](https://coworkingview.com/en/insights/private-office-space-for-rent-in-zuidas-amsterdam-2026-guide), [coworking in the Canal District](https://coworkingview.com/en/insights/coworking-grachtengordel-amsterdam-canal-district-guide) and [hot desks near Centraal Station](https://coworkingview.com/en/insights/hot-desk-coworking-near-amsterdam-centraal-station-2026-guide).

## Three worked examples

These use the medians above, not quotes.

**A freelancer in three days a week.** A flexible desk at around €190 a month at the median, possibly less with a part-time plan. Centrum and the canal ring give the widest choice. Check whether the plan counts days or hours, and whether meeting-room credits are included.

**A team of four, in every day.** Four fixed desks come to roughly €1,000 a month at the median, four desks in a private office to roughly €2,000. The extra €1,000 buys a lockable room for calls and client meetings; whether that is worth it depends on how much of your work is confidential or on the phone.

**A ten-person team near clients in Zuidas.** Budget from the private-office median upwards and expect Zuidas to sit above it. At this size the per-desk price of a private office depends on the specific room, so compare two or three buildings on the same term and size.

## What is and is not in the monthly fee

Usually included: the furnished desk or office, internet, electricity and heating, cleaning, coffee and tea, reception, and access to shared areas. Many memberships include a quota of meeting-room hours or credits.

Usually charged separately or worth checking:

-   Meeting rooms beyond the included quota
-   Using the address for your company registration and mail handling
-   Printing, lockers, parking and 24/7 access on some plans
-   A deposit and, on private offices, a set-up fee

Check whether the price you are looking at includes VAT: the standard Dutch rate is 21%, as set out by the [Belastingdienst](https://www.belastingdienst.nl/wps/wcm/connect/bldcontenten/belastingdienst/business/vat/vat_in_the_netherlands/calculating_vat/vat_tariffs). If you want to register your business at the address, confirm with the operator that this is allowed on your plan, and check the [Chamber of Commerce (KVK)](https://www.kvk.nl) requirements for your company type.

## Flexible contract or conventional lease

A flexible desk or private office runs month to month or on terms of up to about twelve months, with one fee covering furniture, utilities and services. A conventional office lease in the Netherlands typically runs for several years, the space is often delivered without furniture, and you contract energy, internet and cleaning yourself. The lease usually wins on cost per square metre for a large, stable team. The flexible option wins when your team is small, growing or uncertain, or when you need to be working next week rather than next quarter. If you only need a desk a few days a month, our [break-even calculator](https://coworkingview.com/en/tools/break-even-calculator) shows when a membership beats paying by the day.

## How to keep the cost down

Be realistic about how many days people will actually come in: a mix of fixed desks for the core team and flexible desks for the rest is often cheaper than a room sized for everyone. Compare buildings on the same basis (term, size, inclusions). And if your clients are not in Zuidas, the canal ring and Centrum give you a lower entry price for a central address.

## FAQ

**What is the average coworking membership cost in the Netherlands in 2026?**

**How much does a private office cost in Amsterdam?**
A private office in Amsterdam costs a median of about €500 per desk per month in November 2026, so a four-person office starts at roughly €2,000 a month at the median. Zuidas is the most expensive district in our data, while Centrum, the canal ring and Schiphol have lower entry prices. The exact price depends on the room size, building and contract term.

**Which Amsterdam district is cheapest for coworking?**
Among districts with at least three priced listings, Schiphol (about €310) and Centrum (about €340) have the lowest typical entry prices, and Zuidas the highest (about €530). Districts such as Amsterdam-Noord, Zuidoost and Buitenveldert have too few listings for a figure. Entry prices refer to each listing's cheapest monthly option.

**What is included in a coworking membership in Amsterdam?**
A membership usually includes the desk, internet, electricity and heating, cleaning, coffee and tea, reception and shared areas, often with some meeting-room hours. Extra meeting-room time, business registration at the address, printing, lockers and parking are often charged separately. Check whether the price includes the 21% Dutch VAT.

**Is coworking cheaper than renting an office in Amsterdam?**
For small or growing teams, coworking is usually cheaper overall because the monthly fee covers furniture, utilities and services, and terms run from one to about twelve months. For large, stable teams a conventional multi-year lease often costs less per square metre. The deciding factors are team size, how long you need the space and how much you want to invest upfront.
