Our picks of the top coworking spaces in Madrid
Espíritu23
Located right in the heart of Malasaña, Espíritu23 is a hipster haven and a self-described space for “work, creation, and change.” As you walk down Calle Espíritu Santo, it’s hard to miss the colorful murals that decorate its covered terrace. Grab a table outside and a coffee from the café (open to the public), or head inside to enjoy two floors of coworking space. You can get a pass for just a day or a week, and monthly memberships start at €100.
- Address: Calle Espíritu Santo, 23
- Metro: Tribunal or Noviciado
- Hours: Monday to Friday, 9:00 am – 8:00 pm
Colabora Coworking
This is a relatively new spot near Santo Domingo, consisting of a spacious basement area that’s brightened up with plants and modern decor. Colabora Coworking is a smaller and more intimate space, so you’re sure to make new friends in no time. You can use the communal tables or opt for your own desk, and make use of the community kitchen to store all your snacks. In addition to monthly memberships, they offer packs of 25 hours for €50—plus in-house financial advising and graphic design services.
- Address: Calle Torrija, 5
- Metro: Santo Domingo or Callao
- Hours: Monday to Friday, 9:00 am – 8:00 pm
Plázida
“The first coworking space for digital nomads in Madrid.” That’s how Plázida defines itself. Its creator has partnered with Loom Coworking in order to integrate the innovative brand into two different locations: Loom Tapices at the Royal Tapestry Factory near Atocha, and Loom Princesa near Plaza de España (shown in this post’s feature image). The latter features the rooftop garden of your dreams, complete with artwork by Okuda San Miguel. Plázida organizes events for you to connect with fellow coworkers, provides guidance and advice on how to best enjoy Madrid, and even offers complimentary coffee and tea. You can try it for free by requesting a day pass online.
- Address: Calle Vandergoten, 1 / Calle Princesa, 5 (4th floor)
- Metro: Atocha or Menéndez Pelayo / Plaza de España or Ventura Rodríguez
- Hours: Monday to Friday, 9:00 am – 9:00 pm (some plans offer 24/7 access)
Utopicus
Utopicus is actually a whole network of coworking spaces, with six locations in Madrid alone. My personal favorite is on Calle Colegiata, offering an outdoor terrace where you can simultaneously enjoy super-fast WiFi and a snack or coffee from the café. These people have coworking down to a science, with a whole range of membership options to match the needs of any entrepreneur or business. Each location is impeccably designed and has its own unique character, so you can choose the space that best suits your style.
- Address: Calle Colegiata, 9 or several others
- Metro: Tirso de Molina or La Latina (for Colegiata location)
- Hours: Monday to Friday, 9:00 am – 7:00 pm
La Industrial
Stepping into La Industrial is like entering a whole other world, where inspiration and big ideas await around every corner. It’s designed to be “a place to work and share,” where professionals from all industries can collaborate and coexist. They offer communal workspaces as well as private offices and “boxes.” You can try your first day for free and then buy a pack of 10 days for €100, or one of several monthly plans ranging from €30 to €180. They also have an enormous events space on Calle de San Vicente Ferrer.
- Address: Calle de San Andrés, 8
- Metro: Tribunal or Noviciado
- Hours: Monday to Friday, 9:00 am – 8:00 pm
Google Campus
Technically, Google Campus isn’t so much a coworking space as a hub for startups and tech entrepreneurs. But it merits inclusion on this list for its Campus Café, where you can post up at a table or communal desk and stay all day. Don’t feel like you have to buy a pastry every hour in order to be welcome—here it’s totally okay to bring your own snacks from home. That said, the food provided by Do Eat! is delicious and affordable. And the best thing about Google Campus? Membership is totally free!
- Address: Calle Moreno Nieto, 2
- Metro: Príncipe Pio
- Hours: Monday to Friday, 9:00 am – 9:00 pm
