Plug in and power up at the 12 best hot desking spots in Singapore!
Dragging my laptop from cafe to cafe got old fast. Thank goodness, hot desking in Singapore saved my back and my bandwidth! Now, I just pick a spot, plug in, and get straight to work without worrying about leases and overstaying.
The Lion City’s hot desking options make it easy to stay professional and mobile among long and short-term hustlers. Let’s look at the best of what this workspace freedom with WiFi, coffee, and a built-in community has to offer.
JustCo

Address: 108 Robinson Rd, #03-01
Contact: +6569118891
Hours: 24/7 access
Price: $$
I tried JustCo on Robinson Road and loved how sleek and energised the space felt. There’s good coffee, reliable WiFi, and plenty of spots to focus or mingle.
I’ve also dropped by the Orchard outlet with the same 24/7 access and friendly crowd. The phone booths there come in handy, with hot desking starting at around S$398 a month.
Pro-tip: Grab a seat near the windows. Natural light and skyline views help beat the midday slump.
The Hive

Address: 1 N Bridge Rd, #08-08
Contact: +6565506345
Hours: Monday to Friday, 8 AM–6 PM
Price: $$
I once worked at The Hive on North Bridge, and liked the laid-back, creative energy there. Meanwhile, the Lavender outlet’s rooftop lounge offered a nice bonus when I needed a breather between tasks.
The Carpenter Street branch, on the other hand, has cosy corners and a friendly, artsy crowd. Hot desking starts from S$250 a month, which I find fair for the vibe and perks.
Pro-tip: Join The Hive’s community events, which are a great way to network with other creatives, minus the awkward small talk.
The Great Room

Address: 328 N Bridge Rd, Level 02-20 Raffles Hotel Arcade
Contact: +65 6971 8288
Hours: Monday to Friday, 9 AM–6 PM
Price: $$
My office bestie and I like working at The Great Room at Raffles Hotel because it feels more like a luxury lounge (a far cry from our old stuffy workspace). The service is polished, and the space is quiet enough for deep work.
Day passes are about S$70, which we found worth it when meeting clients or needing a change of pace. It’s not your daily grind spot, but it’s great for making a sharp impression.
Pro-tip: For important client meetings, use the day pass for an impressive five-star hotel ambience.
The Work Project

Address: Floor 1 Parkview Square, 600 N Bridge Rd, #10-01
Contact: +6569149878
Hours: Monday to Friday, 9 AM–6 PM
Price: $$
The Work Project at Bugis is easily one of the most polished workspaces I’ve been in. It has a very corporate-friendly vibe, with clean lines and solid acoustics.
A big plus is its speedy WiFi, and meeting rooms that are tech-ready without the usual fuss. It’s a great option for those needing a professional setting but don’t want to commit to a full office space.
Pro-tip: Book meeting rooms early, as slots fill up fast, especially during the lunch hour crush.
Regus

Address: 1 Fullerton Rd, #02-01 One Fullerton
Contact: +6564083800
Hours: Open 24 hours
Price: $$
I appreciated how everything at Regus was plug-and-play, which simplified my work tasks for a full week. The spaces were quiet, clean, and easy to access, especially the Fullerton outlet, which is near my residence.
It’s not flashy, but it’s reliable, which works for me, especially since I move between locations as a work nomad. Hot desking starts at around S$398 per month—kind of steep, but the consistency is what makes it worth it.
Pro-tip: Get the Regus mobile app (Google Play or App Store) to make booking desks and switching locations much smoother.
Deskimo
Media from deskimoapp
Address: 1 Scotts Rd, #24-10 Shaw Centre
Contact: +6581929701
Hours: Monday to Friday, 9 AM–6 PM
Price: $$
Deskimo’s pay-per-minute setup saved me during a last-minute meeting near Shaw Centre. I just opened the app, checked for space, and walked in, fuss-free!
It’s ideal if you don’t need a full-day desk or a regular office. I like that I only pay for the time I actually spend working, which works great when I’m on a tight budget.
Pro-tip: Bring your own charger. Some partner locations have limited power sockets, especially during peak times.
The Working Capitol
Media from theworkingcapitol
Address: 1 Keong Saik Rd
Contact: +6568054001
Hours: Monday to Friday, 8.30 AM–6 PM
Price: $$
I tried working at The Working Capitol on Keong Saik, and it struck a good balance for me. It was cosy enough to feel relaxed, but still sharp for serious work. The vibe made it easy for me to connect with others without feeling forced.
I’ve also attended a talk there. The space was well set up, with everything running smoothly. I find it a solid pick for solo work or small team events.
Pro-tip: Grab a desk near the cafe area for easy coffee top-ups (and a surprisingly productive buzz!).
Trehaus

Address: Trehaus @ City Hall 109 North Bridge Road, #07-21 Singapore 179097
Contact: +6598438077
Hours:
Monday to Friday, 7 AM–7 PM
Saturday to Sunday, 9 AM–6 PM
Price: $$
My older sister swears by Trehaus because it’s the only place she’s found where she can work while her kid’s in school, just steps away. The cafe is handy, and the setup truly caters to working parents without the usual stress.
Hot desk plans start from S$350 per month, with access to child-minding and early education options! It’s a smart choice if you want to get work done without sacrificing parental duties.
Pro-tip: Time your work sessions during Trehaus’ learning blocks, so your kids are engaged and you can finish that to-do list.
WeWork
Media from wework
Address: 71 Robinson Rd
Contact: +6560505235
Hours: Monday to Friday, 9 AM–6 PM
Price: $$
What I liked most about working remotely at WeWork on Robinson Road was its open layout and natural light. It didn’t feel boxed in like some offices do.
Its pantry is well-stocked, the crowd is usually lively, and the helpful staff makes settling in a breeze. The heritage street setting and in-house cafe add to the overall charm.
Pro-tip: Hot desk plans start at around S$400 a month, with access to multiple locations across the CBD.
Servcorp
Media from servcorp
Address: Level 39, Marina Bay Financial Centre, 10 Marina Blvd, Tower 2
Contact: +6568186000
Hours: Monday to Friday, 8.30 AM–5.30 PM
Price: $$
Servcorp over at Marina Bay Financial Centre was a revelation for me. Its location alone is a win, right smack in the CBD, and it offers spotless, business-ready interiors to boot.
The staff are sharp yet friendly, so the place runs like clockwork. It’s a great option if you prefer a plug-and-play setup without sacrificing a polished ambience.
Pro-tip: Hot desking at Servcorp starts at around S$400 per month, with access to high-speed internet, printing, and pro-level meeting rooms.
One&Co

Address: Twenty Anson #11-01, 20 Anson Rd
Contact: +6563035299
Hours: Daily, 9 AM–6 PM
Price: $$
One&Co near Tanjong Pagar MRT surprised me with its spacious, quiet, and well-stocked books and drinks (for quick breaks). The staff were genuinely helpful, so it was easy to slip into focus mode.
I found the WiFi speedy, and the meeting room access handy when I had to accommodate colleagues for a last-minute brainstorming (hot desk plans include these at S$350 per month).
Pro-tip: There’s a good cafe downstairs and affordable eats next door if you need a coffee break or are feeling peckish.
The Cocoon Space

Address: 250 Orchard Rd, #02-01, DORS at Design Orchard
Contact: +6567358390
Hours: Daily, 9 AM–6 PM
Price: $$
On days when I don’t need to work on 9-to-5 tasks but need quiet and calm for my creative projects, I head over to The Cocoon Space. It’s easily one of the most design-forward coworking spaces I’ve tried, with vibes tailored for creatives.
It’s bright, modern, and full of lively energy. I find it a great spot for those into fashion, design, or simply want to be around like-minded folks.
Pro-tip: Hot desks at The Cocoon Space go for around S$30 per day or S$380 per month, with access to maker studios, events, and meeting rooms.
