Short-term office space in Melbourne means a furnished private office or desk on a monthly agreement rather than a lease, and 10 operators offer it across 12 districts. Published asking prices in Melbourne run from A$155 per desk per month at the low end to A$750 in the upper quarter, with a median of A$600. Terms start at one month at most coworking operators and three to six months at the executive-suite operators, with a rolling month-to-month option after the first term.

Notice period (30 days is normal for month-to-month, 60 to 90 at some executive-suite operators), the deposit (one to two months), whether meeting rooms are included or billed hourly, and whether the price quoted is per desk or per office. The listing for each centre on SquareFoot shows the published rate and the term, and a SquareFoot specialist confirms the current availability with the operator before you tour.
