For your own office space in Amstelveen, expect all-in monthly costs of roughly €1,250 to €4,500 in 2026, depending on the number of square metres, the location, and what is included. With a serviced office or business centre, internet, cleaning, and meeting facilities are often already included in the rental price. With traditional bare rental, service costs, fit-out costs, and utilities are added on top. In this article we answer the most frequently asked questions about the cost of office space in Amstelveen, so you can make a fair comparison.
What are the average rental prices for office space in Amstelveen?
The average rental prices for office space in Amstelveen are lower than on the Zuidas, but higher than in surrounding municipalities without a business profile. For a private office of 25 to 85 m² in a professional business centre, you typically pay between €1,250 and €4,500 per month all-inclusive in 2026. With traditional bare rental, square metre prices in Amstelveen average between €150 and €250 per m² per year, excluding service costs and VAT.
What you pay exactly depends heavily on the type of office you choose:
- Bare rental in a traditional office building: low fixed rental price, but you arrange internet, fit-out, cleaning, and service costs yourself.
- Serviced office or business centre: higher all-in price, but you move straight into a fully furnished and managed working environment.
- Shared workspace or coworking: cheapest option, but no private lockable space.
For businesses that want their own office with a professional appearance, the total monthly costs at a serviced office are often comparable to or even lower than bare rental when you honestly factor in all additional costs.
What is included in an all-inclusive office price?
An all-inclusive office price typically covers the rent of the space itself, plus a package of facilities and services that varies by provider. The most common components are: fibre-optic internet, cleaning, use of meeting rooms, reception services, coffee, and access to communal areas. Sometimes parking, climate control, and 24/7 access are also included.
What is exactly included differs per location. It is wise to ask each provider the following points:
- Is internet included, and how fast?
- How many hours of meeting room per month are included?
- Is cleaning daily or weekly?
- Are parking spaces included or available to rent separately?
- Is furniture standard or arranged separately?
At our Kronenburg Offices in Amstelveen, the all-inclusive package is deliberately comprehensive: fibre-optic internet (both wired and Wi-Fi), cleaning, access to eight meeting rooms, a staffed reception, coffee, 24/7 access, and security are all included in the monthly price. You don’t need to arrange anything yourself to be up and running the next day.
How do you fairly compare office providers on price?
To fairly compare office providers on price, you always need to put the total monthly costs side by side, not just the bare rental price. Two offices with a similar rental price can differ significantly in total costs, depending on what is and is not included.
Create an overview of all monthly costs per provider for yourself:
- Rental price (bare or all-in)
- Service costs (cleaning, security, reception)
- Internet and telephony
- Parking costs
- Meeting room (separate or included)
- Furniture (one-off purchase or rented)
- Fit-out costs at the start
- VAT (depending on your VAT situation)
Don’t forget to factor in the contract terms as well: a lower monthly price with a long-term contract can work out more expensive than a slightly higher all-in price with more flexibility. Also look at the notice period and the possibility of scaling up as your business grows.
Is renting office space in Amstelveen cheaper than on the Zuidas?
Yes, renting office space in Amstelveen is generally considerably cheaper than comparable space on the Zuidas, while accessibility and fit-out standards can be comparable. On the Zuidas, rental prices for office space are structurally higher due to the prime location, prestige, and high demand from large multinationals.
Amstelveen borders directly on the Zuidas and is excellently accessible via the A9, A10, A2, and A4 motorways, as well as by metro, tram, and bus. For businesses that do not need a Zuidas address but do want to benefit from the proximity and accessibility, Amstelveen is a logical and cost-efficient choice. You pay for the work, not the address.

What additional costs should you factor in when renting office space?
When renting office space, there are almost always additional costs that are not included in the base rental price. The most common are: service costs, energy costs, internet, parking, fit-out costs, and the security deposit. With bare rental, these costs can amount to 30 to 50 percent on top of the bare rental price.
Specific cost items to watch out for:
- Security deposit: often one to three months’ rent, paid at the start
- Fit-out and relocation costs: one-off, but can be substantial for an empty premises
- Energy costs: electricity, heating, and cooling, sometimes charged via service costs
- Parking: in business areas often invoiced separately per parking space per month
- Meeting room: with some providers booked and charged separately per hour
- VAT: depending on whether the landlord charges VAT and your own VAT situation
With an all-inclusive serviced office, most of these costs are already incorporated in the monthly price. That makes budgeting easier and prevents surprises afterwards.
When is a larger office worth it?
A larger office is worth it when your team regularly works together at the office, you want to receive clients in a representative environment, or when you notice that the current space is hindering the growth or productivity of your business. The rule of thumb is roughly 10 to 15 m² per person for a comfortable working environment, including workspace and some room to move.
Practical situations in which scaling up makes sense:
- Your team grows from two to five employees and regularly works at the office at the same time
- You regularly receive clients and the current space doesn’t look representative enough
- You need a separate meeting room or consultation room
- Employees complain about lack of space or concentration problems
A larger office does not have to be much more expensive, especially if you can scale up within the same location. We offer office units of 25 to 85 m², and it is possible to grow within the same building without having to relocate. That saves time, costs, and hassle.
