Leading flex office provider Cubo is delivering on its plans to roll-out its brand nationally, with the news that it has acquired a new 16,000 sq. ft workspace on Princes Street in Edinburgh.
Cubo has taken a new lease within 40 Princes Street, one of the city’s most remarkable Grade A office buildings.
Princes Street is Edinburgh’s most sought-after location with high-end boutiques and department stores alongside world class dining, artisan coffee shops and places to stay. It is also a short stroll from St James Quarter, an exciting retail led, lifestyle district.
The new Cubo will feature 16,000 sq. ft of office accommodation arranged over two floors, with 325 desks available. Features include a new reception with Lark feature desks and walls, scenic glass lifts and on-site showers.
It will have unbeatable views of the Edinburgh skyline overlooking Edinburgh Castle, and Arthur’s Seat and is adjacent to the city’s Waverley mainline station.
The new Edinburgh location will officially open its doors in June 2023. There has already been significant interest from a number of corporate businesses looking to be based in one of the city’s most high-profile buildings.
Earlier this year, Cubo, which was launched by property investors Marc and Rebecca Brough, set out plans to open four new workspaces by the end of Q2 2023. It recently announced a second site in Nottingham. Cubo Edinburgh will be its seventh site, with Manchester and a second Birmingham site to be announced shortly.
Cubo is transforming the traditional serviced office model. It provides an experience-led lifestyle offer to meet the changing needs of businesses – from hot desking to a designated desk, private office, or entire floor.
Member benefits include large communal spaces, private areas, break-out spaces, kitchens, an inclusive barista service with beer and prosecco on tap, along with a programme of free networking events.
As a result, Cubo is rapidly becoming the location of choice for SMEs, tech companies and corporates looking for a world class environment where they can develop and thrive and is attracting an enticing mix of businesses.
Commenting on the new Edinburgh space, Marc Brough, CEO at Cubo, said:
“We are so excited to have secured what we think is Edinburgh’s most amazing office location.
“It was tricky sharpening our search in a city with little Grade A supply, but the setting, location and quality of 40 Princes Street blew us away when we first saw it.
“The new space continues our rapid expansion and reinforces our commitment to opening in the very best locations across all the UK’s core cities.”
