Looking for a small office in Hamburg? You are not alone — compact units for two to five people are the most requested format on the market. Right now RentOfficeToday lists 400 offices in 66 Hamburg buildings, with units starting from about 6 m².
How much does a small office cost in Hamburg?
The median asking rate across our Hamburg listings is around €31 per m² per month (Kaltmiete). A 15 m² room for two therefore starts near €470 per month in a standard building, more in prime spots like HafenCity, Altstadt, Neustadt, less in City Nord, Hammerbrook, Harburg.
Serviced room or classic lease?
For the smallest teams a serviced office is usually the better deal: furniture, internet, cleaning and reception are included, and you can leave or grow with one month's notice. A classic lease starts to pay off from roughly six to eight workstations.
Filter by size on RentOfficeToday to see every small office in Hamburg with the rate per m² and the full monthly price — direct from owners, no agency fee.
How much space do two, three or five people need?
The working rule is 8–10 m² per workstation including circulation. In practice: two people fit into 15–20 m², three into 25–30 m², five into 40–50 m². Add 10–15% if you receive clients regularly or want a meeting table in the same room.
Our Hamburg catalogue currently lists 326 units up to 30 m² — enough choice that you don't have to take the first thing you see.
Which districts to search first
Neustadt, HafenCity and Altstadt hold most of the small-unit supply. Central addresses cost noticeably more but save everyone travel time; in the outer districts the same budget buys ten to twenty square metres more.
Checklist before the viewing
- Is the space genuinely lockable, or just partitioned off?
- How many desks does the layout really allow — windows, doors, radiators?
- Are internet, cleaning and service charges included or billed on top?
- Are there meeting rooms in the building for when your own room is too small?
- What is the minimum term and how short is the notice period?
What small offices actually cost
At a median base rent of about €31 per m², a 20 m² office runs near €620 a month plus service charges. Serviced offices ask more for the same size but include furniture, internet, reception and cleaning — for stays under a year that is usually the cheaper total.
