Christoph Fahle of One Coworking analyzed 82,074 Google reviews across 1,351 European spaces and found each major brand leads on a different strength, from WeWork‘s location (99%) to Techspace‘s staff (100%). Spaces, Regus, Mindspace and Design Offices each scored highest on different aspects like connectivity, network reach, atmosphere and events.

The takeaway is to match needs like client meetings or quiet floors to the right operator rather than chasing a single winner. As someone with a pet peeve for ‘top coworking spaces in x’ lists, this hits home for me.

Dana Berggren backed Gian Starita’s warning about IWG/Regus management agreements after her own experience in which nearly all members left at turnover.

Corporate Suites is converting a former WeWork location at 16 E 34th St in NYC into a flex center, with a focus on adding more private offices within larger suites to meet client demand.

Richard Sexton, MBE of Office Concierge toured the space with Paul Carter, a long-time flex industry veteran who has been in the sector since his days at Regus.

CoworkingCafe’s Q1 2026 report found the U.S. coworking market grew to 9,136 spaces nationwide, up 3.2% quarter-over-quarter, with Los Angeles (351), Dallas-Fort Worth (337), and Chicago (336) leading by location count.

The report also highlighted continued fragmentation beyond major brands like Regus, HQ, Industrious, Spaces, and WeWork, which together control just 23% of the national market.

National square footage stood at 163.94M sqft, up 2.9% compared to Q4 2025. For those tracking it, this still represents just 2.28% of the total US office space… with loads of space to grow into.
