How we chose
Every centre above has a published asking price and photos, and no operator appears more than twice. They are picked across the published price range, so the list shows what Lyon actually costs at the low end, the middle and the top, rather than one operator’s portfolio. The full list of 31 Lyon spaces is sorted by price with the district on every card.
What a small team should look for
A door that locks and a desk count that matches the team today, not next year: most operators let you move up a size on the same agreement. Meeting-room hours included rather than billed. A term of six months or less for a first office. And a district the team can reach: Lyon’s centres cluster in Dardilly, Champagne au Mont d’Or.
How SquareFoot fits in
SquareFoot is an office brokerage and marketplace: shortlist any centre above, request a tour, and a SquareFoot specialist confirms availability and the exact price with the operator. Free for tenants.
Counts and prices are from SquareFoot’s live listings for Lyon as of November 2026: 31 listings, 15 with a published asking price, collected from the operators’ and landlords’ own pages. Prices are per desk per month for serviced and flexible space unless stated. Written by SquareFoot; reviewed November 2026.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a coworking private office cost in Lyon?
Published prices for a private office or dedicated desk in Lyon run from €189 to €490 per desk per month, median €289, as of November 2026. A four-person office at the median is about €1,156 a month.
Which is the cheapest coworking space in Lyon on this list?
Campus Verrazzano, Building A, Ground floor, 1 Place Giovanni da Verrazzano – Regus in Lyon at €179 per desk per month. The most expensive on the list is 9 Rue des Cuirassiers – Wellio at €490.
Is coworking cheaper than a lease for a small team?
For a team under ten, almost always: the coworking price includes furniture, internet, utilities, cleaning and reception, and the term is months rather than years. A lease only wins once a team is large enough that the per-desk price of a suite falls below the all-in cost of a floor.
