The Maylands Building: Hemel Hempstead’s Coworking Hub
The Maylands Building (HP2 7TG) is Spaces’ flagship coworking location in Hemel Hempstead, set in the Maylands Business Park just off the A414. It is a short drive from the M1 (junction 8) and Hemel Hempstead railway station, so it works whether you arrive by car or train. Spaces scores strongly with bookers — a 4.7 out of 5 for reachability and 4.6 for design and ambiance — and the building leans into the bright, contemporary style the brand is known for.
A hot desk here starts from £54 per day including VAT. That day pass gets you Wi-Fi, access to breakout spaces, a coffee and tea bar, large displays and video-conference equipment for when a call gets serious, plus nearby public parking. Doors are open Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 5:30pm. Book the desk. Skip the lease.

What does a coworking space in Hemel Hempstead cost?
On Wezoo, a coworking space Hemel Hempstead bookers can use starts from £54 per day for a hot desk at The Maylands, with VAT included and no membership attached. You pay for the days you actually work, which suits hybrid schedules far better than a fixed monthly desk you only use twice a week.
Day rates across UK coworking generally track location and the level of service included. A managed, full-service building with meeting rooms and hospitality on site sits at the higher end; a basic shared desk sits lower. Factor in what your day really needs — a quiet call booth and reliable Wi-Fi often matter more than the headline price.
What is a coworking space in Hemel Hempstead best for?
A coworking space Hemel Hempstead offers is best for hybrid workers, freelancers and small teams who want a professional setting without the overhead of a permanent office. It is also a smart middle ground for London-adjacent businesses cutting commute time while keeping a credible place to meet clients.
If you need somewhere to host a workshop, an occasional day office, or a flexible base between client visits, a hot desk plus on-demand meeting rooms covers most of it. Wezoo treats coworking as one part of a broader flexible workspace toolkit, so you can scale up or down as the week demands.
Hot desk, dedicated desk or private office?
Choose a hot desk when your schedule changes week to week and you want to pay only for the days you show up. Choose a dedicated desk when you come in most days and want the same spot, monitor and locker each time. Choose a private office when you need a lockable room, a fixed team base or space to grow.
The cheapest desk costs you the most if it is the wrong fit. If you have outgrown shared desks, compare permanent options in our guide to office space in Hemel Hempstead before you commit.
How far in advance should you book a hot desk?
For a single hot desk, same-day or next-day booking is usually fine — coworking inventory is rarely sold out for one person. Book a few days ahead if you want a specific day around month-end or need a meeting room alongside your desk, when demand peaks.
