There are hundreds of coworking spaces in Paris, but not all are created equal. Whether you’re an artist, developer, ecologist, journalist, consultant or one-person startup, here are seven cool co-working spaces in Paris with a little “je ne sais quoi.”

Definition: A coworking space is defined as a workspace where diverse groups of freelancers, remote workers, and other independent professionals work together in a shared, communal setting. 

Coworking Paris: what’s it like?

If you need to get some work done while travelling to a foreign city such as Paris but don’t have access to a dedicated office, sometimes popping into a cafe with free public WiFi will do. 

The problem is those “free” places are often loud, crowded and distracting. It’s not a very conducive environment to get some serious work done, and the wifi is usually pretty slow.

If you need privacy, access to a printer, phones or other things usually available in an office, a better option is to head over to one of the hundreds of coworking spaces in Paris equipped with all of the basic things you’ll need to get down to business.

Some are bare-bones and depressing while others are hip, vibrant and offer additional amenities beyond basic WI-FI and printers. Those are the ones we care about.

Should you get a coworking pass to get access to multiple coworking spaces?

Before we jump into the cool and hip coworking spaces in and around Paris, let’s talk about coworking passes.

Most coworking spaces in Paris and around the world have monthly membership plans to choose from. The problem is that you’re tied into that particular coworking place.

If you travel a lot and/or would like the ability to work at different coworking places regularly, you’ll have to opt for the pay as you go plan. 

Or you could get a coworking pass that gives you access to multiple coworking spaces around the world. 

For example:

Copass, the future in terms of global access to coworking.

Copass has teamed up with coworking spaces in over 300 cities in 75 different countries worldwide, including Paris.

You can use your global coworking copass in any of the coworking places that are part of the their network, which is great because you’re not stuck using just one coworking spaces and still benefit from the reduced price of a membership plan. 

Their prices are competitive, and they have multiple plans.

Copass offers 4 plans. 

  1. Unlimited – 299
  2. € Part-Time (10 days/mo) 199 €
