The growth of entrepreneurship has significantly changed the possibilities for renting office spaces. One example of flexible offerings is serviced offices, which are used by smaller companies in the development phase as well as large corporations organizing workspaces for specific projects. If you are also interested in this option and are starting to look for a serviced office for your company, you’re in the right place. We’ll guide you on what’s important and the benefits you can expect.
Choosing the Right Location for a Serviced Office
Why does location matter? The right location affects many people associated with your company, primarily the employees. They are the ones who come to the office every day and take on company challenges. With them in mind, it’s worth choosing a location that is convenient in terms of transportation, allowing them to get to work quickly and easily.
The location of the company also matters in business dealings. Clients, partners, and contractors also visit the office and pay attention to the location. If the office is situated in a prestigious part of the city, close to the center, in a prime office complex, or an interesting area, it will add a few points to your company’s image. However, such a location comes at a cost. In the case of traditional rentals, this can be a significant expense. Serviced offices offer a flexible option where cost optimization is possible.
To summarize, here’s what’s important when choosing a location:
- A recognizable address on the city map – choose a location that will positively impact the image of your business.
- Easy access to the office for employees and clients – it’s important for the people you work with to be able to reach the office quickly and conveniently. Choose a well-connected location.
- Surrounding businesses, initiatives, and centers – being in a business environment can lead to new contacts and projects that will enrich your company’s portfolio. Be among people who are active and inspiring.
If you’re curious about the address you’ll get when partnering with IdeaPlace, we’re happy to tell you it’s… prestigious. Plac Solny 15 – this is where our building is located. We’re right next to Wrocław’s market square, giving you the chance to be part of the heart of Lower Silesia’s capital. This location is also well-connected, with several large parking lots nearby. Here, you’ll meet representatives from various industries open to new projects and challenges.
Range of Additional Services Offered
What is a serviced office? It’s an office that’s organized so you can start working in it right away. This means you don’t have to spend time and energy on gathering furniture and equipment, renovating office spaces, and preparing the entire structure needed by employees. All of this is standard in a serviced office.
You can also count on many conveniences when using the office space. Organizational and service-related matters aren’t your concern. In a traditional office, you have to arrange for reception and client services, as well as organize cleaning services and technical support. In the serviced option, you already have this, allowing you to dedicate your valuable business time to your core activities.

Costs of Renting a Serviced Office
Finally, a few words about costs, which are often the determining factor in choosing an office. A serviced office is a service that allows you to optimize expenses related to maintaining an office. First and foremost, you don’t need to hire additional staff in your company, as service and reception support are included. This is the model of cooperation you’ll find at IdeaPlace. We’ll support your company on many levels. An example could be a virtual assistant who handles administrative tasks and assignments you don’t have time for in your schedule.
The flexibility of this type of office service is also evident in the use of additional spaces. Serviced offices provide conference and business rooms by the hour, and you only pay for them when you need them. Additionally, employees can use shared spaces daily, such as the kitchen area. At IdeaPlace, you also have access to comfortable rooms for training sessions and business meetings.
If your company is growing dynamically and continually expanding, you probably don’t want to commit to long-term obligations. Traditional offices often come with contracts for several years. A serviced office can be rented for a shorter period with the option to extend. It can also change and grow with your company’s needs. From a cost perspective, this is a better solution. IdeaPlace takes this into account. That’s why you can switch to a larger office space or use room modules at any time. We give you the opportunity to stay in the same location even as you grow. This is yet another proof that we listen to our clients and create flexible solutions for them.
