Coworking in Park Hill, Sheffield: desks, offices and day passes from £29/day

Spaces Acero publishes prices for every type of space it offers. A hot desk starts at £229/month, which works out at £8/day on a monthly plan. A private office starts at £239/month, only a little more than the hot desk plan, so a room of your own costs barely more than a shared desk here.

For shorter needs, a day office costs from £75/day, the business lounge from £29/day, and a meeting room from £19/h. A virtual office, which gives you a business address without a desk, starts at £89/month.

Across Sheffield as a whole, day passes run from £29/day to £35/day, so Park Hill sits at the cheaper end, and the city's private offices go up to £249/month. More on rates across the city is on the Sheffield coworking pricing page.

Spaces Acero is at 1 Concourse Way, S1 2BJ, in Park Hill, and it is the better-connected of the two for public transport. Sheffield Interchange, the city's main bus station, is 200 m away, and the Sheffield Station/Sheffield Hallam University tram stop is 250 m away, so arriving by bus, tram or train is easy.

It is open 24/7. Inside you get meeting rooms, barista coffee, a café or restaurant on site and shared common areas, and the building has wheelchair access. That mix suits people who spend the whole day in the building and would rather not head out for lunch, and anyone who needs step-free access. Full details are on the Spaces Acero page.

3 Concourse Way sits right next to Spaces Acero at 3 Concourse Way, S1 2BJ, in Park Hill, and is also open 24/7. Its facilities lean towards the practical side of a working day: meeting rooms, Wi-Fi, a cleaning service and breakout areas for a break away from your desk or an informal chat with colleagues.

What sets it apart is that it offers parking and bike storage, which makes it the natural choice if you come in by car or by bike rather than on the bus or tram. See the 3 Concourse Way page for more.

Both Park Hill centres have meeting rooms, so whichever you pick you can book a room for a client or team session without going elsewhere, and both are open 24/7, which suits early starts and late finishes.

Beyond that, each building has its own strengths. Spaces Acero has barista coffee and a café or restaurant on site, so you can get a proper coffee and lunch without leaving the building, and its shared common areas give you somewhere other than your desk to work or meet people. It also has wheelchair access.

3 Concourse Way offers Wi-Fi, a cleaning service and breakout areas, so the space is kept tidy and there is room to step away for a break. It also has parking and bike storage, which means you can drive in and leave the car on site, or lock up your bike before heading to your desk.

• Day pass: for occasional visitors who come in a day here and there; you pay only for the days you use.
• Hot desk: for regulars who come in most weeks; the monthly plan costs about the same as eight day passes, so it pays once you come more often than that.
• Private office: for a small team that wants a lockable room; it costs only slightly more than a hot desk plan, so a team weighing the two gets privacy for little extra.
• Day office: for a one-off private day, such as interviews or focused work, without a monthly commitment.
• Virtual office: for a business that wants a Sheffield address without working from the building.
• Meeting room: booked by the hour for client meetings, at a rate low enough for a short session.

The hot desk and private office pages cover these options across Sheffield.
