The Golden Triangle, KLCC and TRX push pricing above MYR 3,800 per desk for prime suites.

What kinds of flexible workspace can I rent in Malaysia?

Serviced offices provide private, fully fitted suites on short-term contracts with reception and meeting rooms included. Coworking offers hot desks and dedicated desks in shared environments. Managed offices deliver a bespoke private floor on a single monthly fee covering fit-out, furniture and building services.
What are the best locations for office space in Malaysia?
The best office locations in Malaysia are Kuala Lumpur, Petaling Jaya, Penang, Johor Bahru, Kota Kinabalu and Kuching.

Can I rent an office in Malaysia on a short-term basis?
Yes, flexible office space in Malaysia can be rented on a short-term basis from one month upwards, with most operators offering rolling monthly or 12-month agreements inclusive of furniture, utilities, cleaning and reception.
