A day office Dublin booking buys the one thing a shared desk cannot: a private room of your own for a single working day, at a price you can read before you commit. Wezoo lists 83 of them across 10 buildings in Dublin City. This guide compares all ten buildings on price, capacity, opening hours and cancellation terms. If you want the product explained rather than the city, start with our complete guide to day offices.
For an overview of every option, see all day offices in Dublin.
One pattern does most of the work. Each building publishes a single day rate that applies to every day office inside it, whatever size the room is — so at Harcourt Centre the one-person room and the eighteen-person room both cost €147.48. In Dublin the day rate belongs to the building, not to the room. Across all 15 day-office buildings in the Dublin area — 10 in Dublin City, 2 in Fingal and 3 in Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown — not one publishes a second rate. So the first question is not which building. It is how many of you are coming.

What is a day office, and when does it beat a hot desk?
A day office is a private room booked for one day at a published rate. A hot desk is one seat in a shared room, priced per person per day. The difference that matters on the invoice is that a day office is priced once, for the room, however many of you walk in — up to the maximum occupancy the listing states.
Six of the 10 Dublin City day-office buildings also list a hot desk, so the two products can be compared at the same address on the same per-day basis. The two published figures below are the tax-inclusive totals Wezoo shows; the 2× and 3× columns are simple multiples of the desk rate. Three is the number that flips it: at two people the desks are cheaper, at three the room is. That holds at five of the six.
| Building | Day office (per day) | Hot desk (per person, per day) | Two hot desks (2×) | Three hot desks (3×) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Harcourt Centre | €147.48 | €60.89 | €121.78 | €182.67 |
| Alexandra House | €161.01 | €66.30 | €132.60 | €198.90 |
| Ormond House | €161.01 | €66.30 | €132.60 | €198.90 |
| Donnybrook House | €201.60 | €79.83 | €159.66 | €239.49 |
| 77 Sir John Rogerson’s Quay | €228.66 | €87.95 | €175.90 | €263.85 |
The sixth building breaks the pattern, and it is worth knowing why. The Masonry lists a day office at €730.62 and a hot desk at €33.83, and its hot-desk listing is capped at 11 people — so even at eleven people the desks come to €372.13, well under the room’s price. Its day office states a maximum occupancy of 2. Read a room’s occupancy before you read its rate.
If you are still weighing the product rather than the building, our guide to flexible office space sets the day office beside the other short-term formats.
Day office Dublin prices: what the ten buildings charge
Here are the ten buildings, cheapest first, in two tables. The rate column is the whole story for that address: it is what a day office there costs, at any of the room sizes listed. The first five are profiled further down; the other five are already written up elsewhere on this site at the day-office level, so they get a row and a link instead.
| Building | Day rate (tax incl.) | Operator | Rooms listed | Max occupancy | Eircode | Profile |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Harcourt Centre | €147.48 | Regus | 20 | 1–18 | D02 HW77 | Profiled below |
| Alexandra House | €161.01 | Regus | 15 | 2–23 | D04 C7H2 | Profiled below |
| Ormond House | €161.01 | Regus | 5 | 2–6 | D07 EE37 | Profiled below |
| Donnybrook House | €201.60 | Spaces | 21 | 1–7 | D04 E6X0 | Profiled below |
| 77 Sir John Rogerson’s Quay | €228.66 | Spaces | 17 | 2–56 | D02 VK60 | Profiled below |
And the five already covered elsewhere:
| Building | Day rate (tax incl.) | Operator | Rooms listed | Max occupancy | Eircode | Where it is covered |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| The Merrion Buildings | €245.08 | Iconic Offices | 1 | 1 | D02 XH98 | See Serviced Office Dublin |
| The Garrison | €245.08 | Iconic Offices | 1 | 1 | D02 KA62 | See Office Space Dublin |
| The Victorians | €312.54 | Iconic Offices | 1 | 1 | D02 YX28 | See Shared Office Dublin |
| The Wilde | €588.15 | Iconic Offices | 1 | 1 | D02 PR63 | See Flexible Workspace Dublin |
| The Masonry | €730.62 | Iconic Offices | 1 | 2 | D08 PY5E | See Office Space Dublin |
Put the two tables together and the ten buildings split cleanly in two.
Five buildings list a single day office each, none of those rooms stated for more than 2 people, and all five price at €245.08 or more. The other five carry 78 of the 83 rooms between them, reach a maximum occupancy of 56, and all five price at €228.66 or less. Neither shape is better than the other; they answer different questions. A one-room building is a room. A twenty-room building is a choice.
Every day-office and hot-desk price on this page is the tax-inclusive total Wezoo shows before you confirm. On all 143 Dublin day-office listings that total sits 23% above the pre-tax subtotal, rounded to the nearest cent, which is Ireland’s standard VAT rate.
Capacity: how many people does a Dublin day office take?
Maximum occupancy across the 83 day office Dublin rooms runs from one person to 56. Within Dublin City, six buildings list a room for a single occupant, and the cheapest of those is Harcourt Centre at €147.48; three list a room for ten or more, namely 77 Sir John Rogerson’s Quay, Alexandra House and Harcourt Centre. The highest maximum occupancy in Dublin City is at 77 Sir John Rogerson’s Quay, stated at 56 people, and Alexandra House is second at 23.
Because a building charges one rate, the cost per head comes down to two things: that rate, and the occupancy ceiling of the room you pick. Divide a building’s rate by a room’s maximum occupancy and the 83 rooms spread from €4.08 to €588.15 a head — the top figure coming from the one-person room at The Wilde — with a middle value of €40.25. That is a derived figure, not a price anyone charges — you pay the room rate whether you fill the room or not — but it is the fastest way to see why a big team should look at the big rooms. The 56-person room at 77 Sir John Rogerson’s Quay works out at €4.08 per person if you fill it.
One caution on the wording: maximum occupancy is a ceiling on people, not a count of desks. A room stated at eight people is a room that eight may use; the listing does not say how many desks are in it, and it publishes no floor area either.
Five day office Dublin buildings to start with
These five are the day office Dublin buildings this site has not profiled before. They are also, as it happens, the five cheapest in Dublin City, and between them they hold 78 of the 83 rooms.
Harcourt Centre — €147.48 per day
The cheapest day rate in Dublin City, with twenty rooms behind it. They run from a one-person room to an eighteen-person one, and every one of them is €147.48. Every Dublin building prices this way; only The Gables, out in Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown, matches this rate.
Address: Regus House, D02 HW77. The building’s listing carries the service tags bike storage, breakout spaces, catering, coffee and tea bar, lounge, parking and wheelchair accessible. Book Harcourt Centre on Wezoo.
Alexandra House — €161.01 per day
Fifteen rooms at €161.01, running from two people up to twenty-three — the second-highest ceiling in the city. It is one of two buildings on this list with a D04 Eircode.
Address: Alexandra House, D04 C7H2. The building’s listing carries the service tags breakout spaces, catering, coffee and tea bar, parking and wheelchair accessible. Book Alexandra House on Wezoo.
Ormond House — €161.01 per day
The only D07 address in the set, at the same €161.01 rate as Alexandra House but with a much shorter list: five rooms, none above six people. A small, straightforward pick for up to half a dozen.
Address: Ormond Building, D07 EE37. The building’s listing carries the service tags breakout spaces, catering, lounge and wheelchair accessible. Book Ormond House on Wezoo.
Donnybrook House — €201.60 per day
Twenty-one rooms at €201.60, the longest list of any Dublin City day-office building, but the ceiling stops at seven people. Sixteen of the twenty-one are stated at four people or fewer, so this is a building built around small teams rather than one big room.
Address: 36-42 Donnybrook Road, D04 E6X0. The building’s listing carries the service tags breakout spaces and catering. Book Donnybrook House on Wezoo.
77 Sir John Rogerson’s Quay — €228.66 per day
The dearest of the five at €228.66, and the only place in the city listing a day office for fifty-six people. Seventeen rooms in all, from two people upward. If the day is an offsite rather than a meeting, this is the shortlist of one.
Address: 77 Sir John Rogerson’s Quay, D02 VK60. The building’s listing carries the service tags breakout spaces, catering, parking and wheelchair accessible. Book 77 Sir John Rogerson’s Quay on Wezoo.
Day office, hot desk or a monthly private office?
Dublin City has all three on Wezoo. The table sets them side by side, but read the last row carefully, because the three figures are not on one basis.
| Day office | Hot desk | Private office | |
|---|---|---|---|
| What you get | A private room you book by the day | One seat in a shared room | A private room held for you month to month |
| Priced | Per room, per day | Per person, per day | Per office, per month |
| Dublin City buildings | 10 | 11 | 20 |
| Lowest published figure | €147.48 per day, tax included | €33.83 per person per day, tax included | from €365.00 per month, no tax or fee published |
| Best for | A team day, a client session, interviews | One person, one seat | A standing base you do not want to rebook |
Two of those three columns can be compared directly. The third cannot.
The monthly figure is the catch. A private office starting price on Wezoo is a “from” price for the whole office unit, and the listing publishes no tax or fee component beside it — unlike the day and desk rates, which are totals. The €365.00 a month at Ormond House and the €161.01 a day at the same building are therefore not a like-for-like pair. Treat the monthly number as a signal about commitment, and compare it properly on our private office Dublin page. Eleven of the 20 buildings listing a private office publish no starting price at all.
Why a by-the-day product exists at all: the Central Statistics Office counted 426,000 people in Ireland who sometimes worked from home in Q4 2025 — people whose week runs mostly elsewhere. Occasional need is what a by-the-day product answers, and it is the same story behind our hot desk Dublin and office space Dublin guides.
Day office Dublin terms: hours, minimum booking and cancellation
All 83 Dublin City listings publish the same window: Monday to Friday, 09:00 to 17:00, Dublin time. None of them publishes Saturday or Sunday hours. Every one also states a minimum booking of one hour, and every one prices in whole days.
Hours and the minimum booking are uniform. Cancellation is the term that varies, and it varies inside buildings as well as between them. Five rooms publish a cancellation leeway of 1,440 minutes, or one day. The figure is 18,720 minutes on 62 rooms and 33,120 minutes on 16 — 13 days and 23 days. Harcourt Centre, Alexandra House and 77 Sir John Rogerson’s Quay each carry two different values across their own rooms, so check the figure on the room you are booking rather than on the building.
On facilities, the room-level listings are sparse and near-uniform: wi-fi and coffee, tea and water are listed on all 83 rooms, and natural light on 66 of them. Building-level service tags are richer, and are listed for each of the five buildings profiled above.
How to book a day office in Dublin in five steps
In words, the same five decisions:
- Count the heads. Two people or fewer, price hot desks first where the building lists them. Three or more, go straight to a room.
- Pick the building. Its single rate is the price, so this step sets your budget before you have chosen a room.
- Pick the room size. The rate does not change with room size, so it costs nothing to book a bigger room where the building lists one.
- Check the terms on that room. Hours are uniform across Dublin City; the cancellation leeway is not.
- Book it. Wezoo takes the booking one day at a time — no membership, no subscription.
Outside the capital, the same method applies to our day office Cork and day office Limerick guides. Beyond Dublin City itself, Wezoo lists 2 more day-office buildings in Fingal and 3 in Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown, taking the Dublin-wide total to 15.

Day office Dublin FAQ
How much does a day office Dublin booking cost?
Day rates at the ten Dublin City buildings run from €147.48 to €730.62 per day, tax included. The median building rate is €236.87, and the median across the 83 individual rooms is €201.60. Each building charges one rate for all of its day offices, so the room size you choose does not change the price.
What is the cheapest day office in Dublin?
Within Dublin City, Harcourt Centre publishes the lowest day-office rate of the ten buildings on Wezoo: €147.48 per day, tax included. That single rate covers all twenty of its rooms, from the one-person listing up to the eighteen-person one. Dublin-wide, The Gables in Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown matches it at the same €147.48.
Is a day office cheaper than hot desks for a small team?
At six Dublin City buildings you can book both products. At five of those six, two hot desks cost less than the day office and three hot desks cost more — so three people is the point where the private room wins. Both figures are the tax-inclusive totals Wezoo shows, at the same address and on the same per-day basis. The exception is The Masonry, where the day office is priced at €730.62 and takes two people.
How many people fit in a Dublin day office?
Maximum occupancy across the 83 day office Dublin rooms runs from one person to 56. Within Dublin City, six buildings list a single-occupant room and three list a room for ten or more; the highest ceiling, at 77 Sir John Rogerson’s Quay, is stated at 56 people. Maximum occupancy is a ceiling on people, not a count of desks.
What are the opening hours for day offices in Dublin?
Every one of the 83 day office Dublin listings publishes the same window: Monday to Friday, 09:00 to 17:00, Dublin time. None of them publishes weekend hours. Each listing also states a minimum booking of one hour.
Can I cancel a Dublin day office booking?
Yes. Every Dublin City day-office listing publishes a cancellation leeway — the notice it asks for — and the values differ sharply. Five rooms state 1,440 minutes, which is one day. Other rooms state either 18,720 or 33,120 minutes, which are 13 and 23 days. Harcourt Centre, Alexandra House and 77 Sir John Rogerson’s Quay each carry two different values across their own rooms, so check the figure shown on the room you are booking.
Do I need a membership to book a day office in Dublin?
No. Wezoo is a booking platform rather than a workspace operator, and a day office Dublin booking is paid for one day at a time, with no membership and no subscription. The price shown before you confirm is the total for the room, tax included.
