20 of the best riverside offices in London 2021

London is home to some of the most sought-after office spaces in the world today. Providing businesses with an array of unique opportunities, the lively capital is the perfect place to find flexible fully serviced office space in a fantastic location.

From quirky buildings in the city centre to luxurious options in prestigious districts such as Mayfair, there are offices to suit everyone. For those who are looking to enjoy a view like no other, offices situated along the Thames are some of the most desirable.

Relocating to a riverside office in London is a great idea for businesses. With many transport links including the River Bus, you can easily beat the commuter crush! The River Bus has a variety of routes available, running every 20 minutes from major London piers.

Taking office space next to the famous London river comes with an abundance of water-based activities on tap for you to enjoy. Go for a riverbank stroll during your lunch break, go for lunch on a floating restaurant, take a leisurely boat ride or head to the river party boats to wind down after work.

Scientific research shows that being near water can make us calmer and healthier – you feel your muscles relax and your breaths get deeper. The effects of 'blue environments' and being surrounded by calming waters can slow down our heart rate, reduce stress levels and boost mental health - what isn't to love about spending time and working by the water?

In addition, a riverside office in London will put you in prime position for an array of famous London events, including the New Year Fireworks, the London Marathon, the Boat Race and the Great River Race.
