Office Space Advice
Office in luxury with executive suites
Published November 16th, 2008 by Jennifer LeClaire
Why settle for a professional executive office suite when you could have a luxurious, professional executive office suite?
As the serviced office industry matures, you’ll find more than your typical office rentals coming to market. Indeed, as competition heats up, some serviced office providers are pulling out all the stops to offer posh lobbies and ultramodern furnishings fit for up-and-coming Donald Trumps. You’ll also find executive offices with technological bells and whistles and luxury amenities that rival Fortune 500 firms.
It all begins with a prestigious business address that signals to would-be clients and loyal customers alike that you’ve chosen a desirable location for your business. From there, you can customize your technology features, your workspace and your services to match your clients’ upscale expectations.
Some of the newest kids on the block, like OfficeOne, feature sophisticated lobby areas that impress from the moment your clients walk through the door. OfficeOne also features LCD flat panel TVs in each office.
Other luxury amenities you can expect from high-end serviced office complexes include covered parking, a dedicated receptionist, a concierge, and state-of-the-art conference rooms with full video conferencing capabilities. You should also expect 24-hour monitored security at upscale office suites.
Of course, high-end furnishings are part and parcel of luxury-minded serviced offices. You’ll find leather sofas, oversized fish tanks, and sleek, modern architecture, flooring and wall décor. Not surprisingly, these luxury office rentals are attracting law firms, creative agencies and other professionals who don’t want to commit to leasing a bare bones office long-term when they could get a lavish office with plenty of perks.
Indeed, luxury serviced offices give professionals the best of all worlds – an upscale look and feel, a trained receptionist and cleaning staff, state-of-the-art technology and short-term leases that are as little as 20 percent the per-month cost of traditional office rentals.
So, again, why settle for a professional executive office suite when you could have a luxurious, professional executive office suite? There’s no reason to if there’s one in your area.

I’ve noticed this trend towards luxury office rentals in Miami and other major cities. Gone are the days when temporary office dwellers have to settle for substandard space and services. The industry has developed far beyond its roots and is catering to what the public demands. It goes to follow that if serviced office developers hope to attract the likes of attorneys and architects that luxury settings are a must.

This really is the best of all worlds. What’s interesting is how this might impact the market pricing. The non-luxury serviced offices will be forced to upgrade or lower their rates in markets where these upscale office rentals exist. Of course, upgrading takes time and costs money. Lowering prices on an older facility might not hurt, especially if the loan was refinanced during the hey days.

This reminds me of self-storage. In the early days of self-storage, the facilities were rather plain — just little garages, basically. Over time, the industry has evolved and if you look around you’ll notice some luxurious self-storage facilities on the market with amenities like conference rooms, gun vaults, wine storage, Wi-Fi in the office. It’s really an amazing transformation. Serviced office rentals were never that far down the food chain, but they could climb even higher than self-storage with their luxury appeal.
