Office Recommendations

Hard to concentrate at home? Too easily distracted in a trendy co-working space and worried about security? Tired of fighting for a table near a plug in a coffee shop? Budget tight but need your own space to say “this is mine”.

If you find yourself in any of the above circumstances, we recommend you find a serviced office. There are so many types of serviced offices and flexible workspaces available you’ll easily find something which fits your needs. However, when it comes to selecting an office there should be no reason to compromise to get something which suits your budget:

Distance from the local transport links: Location is key when it comes to choosing an workspace. No point in finding a great office if you have to spend hours getting there. Having an office near major local transport links should be one of your first considerations.

Meeting rooms: If meeting clients, suppliers and potential employees in a professional environment is important to you, choose an office where you can easily use on-site meeting rooms. Many low-cost providers won’t offer this facility. Which means you’ll be back to the coffee shop when you should be impressing your visitors.

Telephone / mail handling: When you start your own business, you want to focus on your sales activity but there are so many detailed things to take care of. If you select a serviced office with reception facility, the staff will take care of the calls and mails for you. You can avoid missing calls when you are talking with your clients or out of the office. You can also leverage secretarial services to send mails and print documents.

English service: Many Japanese people are not so good or confident when it comes to speaking English. Additionally many services are only designed for local users. Therefore it’s critical that you find a serviced office with English service to help you set-up and run your business smoothly.

Prestigious business address: In Japan it’s a typical business conversation to talk about office location when you exchange the business card. And if your office address is prestigious, your client might say “Oh, you have your office in good location. How did you come here from there?” A high-profile business address will help you to be considered as a reliable business partner.

Lucky number: there are several numbers which are well known as “lucky numbers”, like ‘1’, ‘7’ and ‘8’. It might be good for you to have these numbers in your business address or office number.

In this case, we recommend you to have semi-private office with 180cm high wall. We can provide 1 or 2 person office booths where you can lock the door and leave confidential documents behind. This is a great space for people who move around a lot ("Nomads") but who need a space to call their own with the security of a lockable door.

Office type 3.
Private office for a few people

(Reference price: 170,000 JPY/Month)

This type of private office is suitable for 2 or more people. We recommend this office when you’re comfortable with a small office space and need the security and confidentiality of a private office.

The aisle side of the office is made from textured glass, giving lots of natural light as well as privacy for your documents and computer screen.

When you need some refreshments and a break from work, you can get a hot satisfying coffee from the pantry.

Office type 4.
Private offices with outside view

(Reference price: 300,000 JPY/Month)

If you have over 5 co-workers, you should consider a private office with a window. The room is completely private giving you security for your document as well as conversations.
