Bordeaux, from Chartrons to Euratlantique

Driven by the Euratlantique project, one of the largest urban development schemes in France, and by the high-speed line that puts Paris about 2 hours away, Bordeaux has established itself as a major office market in south-west France. With a French Tech ecosystem and players in digital, wine and services, the city attracts companies and talent alike, drawn by its quality of life.

Coworking options in Bordeaux

  • A desk in the open-plan area: a workstation in a shared space, the most flexible and cost-effective option.
  • An enclosed private office: a closed room for one to a few people, confidential, with the venue's services.
  • A private floor: an enclosed space dedicated to a whole team (up to several dozen desks).

Why choose coworking in Bordeaux?

The strength of coworking lies in its shared spaces and services: a small team gets premium amenities it could never have afforded in a conventional office, at a shared cost. In Bordeaux, the newer venues in Bassins à flot and Euratlantique offer these amenities a stone's throw from the quays.

👥Meeting rooms

Meeting rooms can usually be booked on a shared basis (some sites also have private ones). A very flexible commitment (often from 1 month), with nothing to manage. And if your team grows, you can often expand within the same building.

Coworking in Bordeaux: where to set up?

Each neighbourhood has its own feel:

  • Chartrons & Bassins à flot: the old merchants' quarter turned creative hub, with start-ups, agencies and hybrid venues along the quays.
  • The centre: Triangle d'Or, Quinconces, Gambetta: central, prestigious addresses in the historic stone-built city.
  • Euratlantique / Saint-Jean station: the fast-growing business district, ideal for teams commuting between Paris and Bordeaux.
