A serviced office is a furnished, staffed, ready-to-occupy room billed as one monthly figure. In San Francisco these sit alongside conventional space in the same towers, and our listing prices 97 private offices across 11 buildings, the smallest of which are pure serviced product.
The entry prices, address by address
Furnished rooms start at $130 a month for 43 ft² at 75 Broadway and 1390 Market Street. Above that the ladder is short and specific: $390 for 129 ft² in the same two buildings, $431 for 161 ft² at 611 Gateway Boulevard, $560 for 215 ft² at 580 California Street and 50 California Street, $604 for 226 ft² at Levi's Plaza, $680 for 108 ft² at 315 Montgomery Street, and $831 for 161 ft² at both 201 Mission and 505 Montgomery Street. Nineteen units in the city listing are priced under $1,000 a month and 32 under $2,000.
Why the rate per foot looks high
A serviced room at 505 Montgomery Street or 201 Mission computes to $5.15 per ft² and one at 315 Montgomery Street to $6.32, against a city-wide typical rate of $2.67. That gap is not a markup on the real estate — it is the furniture, cabling, internet, cleaning, reception, meeting-room access and the absence of a fit-out project. Price the alternative honestly: on a conventional 1,000 ft² floor you are buying desks, chairs, a network, a coffee machine and three months of your own time before anyone starts work.
Executive suites and specialist rooms
The upper end of the serviced range is a genuine executive suite rather than a partitioned room. At 201 Mission — the Providian Financial Building — private units run from 161 ft² to 6,943 ft² and from $831 to $21,500 a month, so a founder's office and a full trading floor come from the same reception desk. The buildings also list specialist treatment rooms of 20 ft² from $46 to $126 a month, used by medical and beauty practitioners who need an address with footfall rather than a floor.
When serviced beats a lease
Three cases decide it. If your headcount could move by half in either direction within twelve months, take the flexible term. If you need to be operational inside a fortnight, a lease will not physically get you there. And if the finance team cares more about a predictable monthly figure than about the lowest possible rate, one invoice covering rent, services and internet is worth real money in avoided admin. Above roughly 3,000 ft² the arithmetic flips: the 20 units in our listing at that size are cheaper per foot on a conventional lease, and at that scale you should be negotiating rent-free months instead.
