WeWork coworking space

With WA’s borders now well and truly open, you might be looking for a way to untether yourself from the everyday office experience. So if you’re looking for a place that’s a little more flexible, less crowded, and spacious, but with all the perks of a regular office, then it’s time to discover coworking spaces.

However you prefer to work, you’ll find coworking spaces that get you out of your routine, providing opportunities to interact with other creatives, small business owners, students, and entrepreneurs. Or, if you prefer, a space to get more distance from other people, where you can work at your own pace, away from the distractions of your home office setup.

In this article we’ll introduce you to some of Perth’s best coworking spaces, so you can find the one that’s right for you.

Level Nine Co-Working Space

Whether you’re just in Perth for a few nights, or you’re looking for a space that has that hint of luxury, Level Nine Co-working Space might be the place for you. Located on Level 9 of the Quay Hotel, it’s a 24/7 coworking space catering to both casual flexi users and hotel residents alike.

Inside you’ll find hot desks, dedicated desk spaces, and individual offices available, with prices starting at $30 a day. Light, bright, and airy, it feels like a hotel space: relaxed, but a place that you can make home. One perk we love about this space is their negotiated Wilson parking rate—perfect for if you’re avoiding public transport.

So drop in, take a seat by the window, and soak up the expansive views over Elizabeth Quay, the Swan River, and Kings Park. Get in touch with their front desk team for a free one-day trial.

Liberty Flexible Workspaces

Liberty Flexible Workspaces are an independent, locally owned coworking collective, with two locations at either end of St Georges Terrace. Their flagship office at 197 St Georges undertook a full refurbishment in 2020, and you’ll find it decked out in a striking navy and black theme, with comfortable couches and spacious desks. Inside, you can network with a mix of freelancers, consulting clients, and small businesses, and enjoy barista coffee made by the friendly staff.

They offer full- and flextime coworking that starts at just $39 a day for a one-day, no-commitment desk rental. If you’re looking for something more long-term, coworking packages are available at a month-to-month basis, with no lock-in contracts.

Founded in 2012, Spacecubed is one of Perth’s original and most seasoned coworking space offerings.

Riff, powered by Spacecubed

Riff is Spacecubed’s original coworking space, located just off the corner of St Georges Terrace and Barrack Street.

Fern is Spacecubed’s newest offering. Tucked away behind Allendale Square, it’s a premium inner city workspace retreat. Bright, light, and modern, with truly eye-catching aesthetic, it’s perfect for both freelancers or small teams looking for that space to set up home, or startups looking to scale.

Flux, powered by Spacecubed

Located on the 32nd floor of Central Park Tower, international coworking brand WeWork has made its home in Perth.
