Why We’re Moving to Serviced Office Space in Dublin

After many years in the serviced office industry, we still get a genuine buzz when new prospects walk through the door looking for serviced office space in Dublin. The questions are usually the same: reception services, broadband speeds, showers, bike racks, on demand meeting rooms, all essential features of modern flexible office space.

But we always encourage clients to think beyond the first 12 months and consider what their business might need as it grows or adapts. Choosing the right serviced offices in Dublin isn’t just about today, it’s about ensuring you have the flexibility to scale up or down without disruption.

A typical example is a client who arrives needing space for two people, with the option to grow. Straightforward in theory, but growth doesn’t always follow a predictable path. With hybrid working now the norm, selecting a provider with a wide range of suite sizes in the same building is crucial. It ensures you can adjust your footprint without the hassle of changing your Dublin business address.

That need for flexibility is exactly why Premier Business Centres, as a long established serviced office operator, have made a major decision of our own. After 20 years in a traditional lease, we’re handing back the keys to our long term head office. Like many companies in Dublin, our working week has become more ad hoc, and we want a workspace that adapts to us, not the other way around.

This April, we’re moving into newly acquired serviced office space on Lower Baggot Street, Dublin 2, and we’re excited. The building is connected to nine others along the same street, giving us the ability to upsize, downsize, or reconfigure our space whenever we need to. It’s the kind of flexibility we’ve been recommending to clients for years, and now we get to experience it ourselves.

Our virtual office clients will also benefit. They’ll have access to meeting rooms, co working desks, and the option to move into a physical office without long commitments. We don’t require a 12 month minimum term, we offer solutions from a single day to a full year, depending on what works best.

Premier Business Centres Are Moving

Because we know the Dublin office market inside out, we also know the reality of our own previous overheads. With a team of 40 but rarely more than 10 in the office at once, the numbers simply didn’t add up. When our accountants asked for costings on the move, the process was refreshingly simple: a set rate per desk, with all monthly bills included, high speed broadband, utilities, refreshments, everything. It means we can budget accurately for the year ahead without worrying about unexpected maintenance or fluctuating costs.

Serviced office space isn’t the perfect fit for every company. Since opening Premier Business Centres in 1999, we’ve worked with businesses of every size and sector. But one thing has

remained consistent: when a client settles into the right serviced office in Dublin, they rarely leave. Flexibility, convenience, and predictable costs go a long way.

Top Tips When Choosing Serviced Office Space in Dublin

• Choose a provider with a wide range of office sizes at the same Dublin address so you can grow or contract without changing location.
• If you need a phone number or phone answering service, and the provider only offers numbers from their own DDI range, consider securing your own number and forwarding it, that way, you always retain control.
• Opt for a fully all inclusive rate, covering all monthly bills, so you can budget confidently for the year ahead.
• Look for serviced offices in Dublin 2 or central Dublin if you want a prestigious business address with excellent transport links.
• Check for hybrid friendly features such as co working areas, breakout spaces, and flexible meeting room access.
