Coworking Spaces Edinburgh: 21 Best Places to Work [2024]

by

With a hilltop castle, charming old pubs, and quirky cobblestone streets, the Scottish capital city is one of the most picturesque in the UK.

Add friendly locals and endless entertainment options into the mix, it’s no wonder that Edinburgh is one of the top 25 most visited cities in Europe.

In fact, many travellers love it so much, they move there!

Because the city has such a diverse population, there’s a high demand for various coworking spaces in Edinburgh.

Some cater to corporate satellite workers seeking luxurious office space (yes, it exists!), while others cater to laidback digital nomads.

Here are the top 21 coworking spaces in Edinburgh that suit a range of business budgets and working styles to make all your coworking dreams come true.
