Co-working spaces are getting all the hype these days bringing the entrepreneurial community closer together. When Spaceship started out in 2014, we rented a hot desk at Paktor's office so that we could be surrounded by like-minded hustlers without having to worry constantly about the cost of rent every month.
Since we received the kind support from the team at Paktor that helped Spaceship get our feet off the ground, we thought we'll pay it forward by consolidating a list of 5 co-working spaces in Singapore so that entrepreneurs can save time going through each google search result to check out prices of a hot desk.
A hot desk loosely defined here is a seat in a co-working space. One gets access to the space daily but is not entitled to a fixed desk.
Top 5 Coworking Spaces In Singapore Review
1. Spacelabs by Spaceship
Spacelabs by Spaceship is a new but up and coming co-working space in Singapore for rent. It also prides itself as Singapore's 1st and only Co-warehouse. Nestled in the industrial district of Eunos, it also adopts that kind of industrial vibe to it that makes the working environment here very conducive. The space is best suited for distributors, e-commerce retailers or small businesses that have inventory because of their onsite storage units, packing stations and dispatch zones. Order fulfilment can be conducted entirely within the space. They even have a photography studio for creatives to shoot for their content!

2. The Great Room
The Great Room is premium co-working space that centers its design around luxury and hospitality. Their locations all have jaw dropping views and are more geared towards matured start ups with a higher capital to pay the costly rent. They market themselves as a great place for networking due to drinks and surrounding nightlife near the office. If you believe partying is equally as important as working then this is just the space for you.

3. WeWork
Wework is probably the quintessential example of a coworking space. Their modern, gorgeous workspaces are designed by award winning architectural firms but just like Great Room, memberships there also carry a hefty price tag. Before you sign up with them, think carefully if you would really want to pay that extra premium just for those fancy touches.

4. JustCo
JustCo has convenient locations in town and members can pop by any of their branches to work which further adds to the convenience. There are complaints however that their designs are not work friendly, with unadjustable high chairs and phone booths without tables to put lap tops.

5. The Working Capitol
The Working Capitol's community is primarily Fintech companies or businesses in the digital sphere. Their spaces are tastefully designed and close to popular restaurants like Muchachos and Potato Head Folk, which is a major draw. They are best known for their Green is the New Black event where social entrepreneurs are invited to talk about their journey.
