The Astley, 70 Great Ancoats Street

Serviced offices to let at The Astley give fast-growing teams a polished, design-led base in Central Manchester, M4 5BG. Set across two contemporary levels and linked by a feature spiral staircase, the building combines floor-to-ceiling windows, full air conditioning, and interiors designed entirely in-house. The result is a distinctive flexible workspace that feels considered at every turn, the kind of design-led serviced office that is rare in the city. Copper-topped bars, porthole-doored phone booths, geometric tiled coffee counters, and green velvet lounge seating give each floor real personality. Each level carries its own well-stocked kitchen, and the full-height glazing draws daylight deep into both floors throughout the working day.

The workspace offer is deliberately broad, spanning private offices, dedicated desks, bookable meeting rooms, and a hot desking area for solo members and visiting teams alike. Every serviced office arrives fully furnished and move-in ready, configured for the creative, digital, and professional services teams that value design as much as function. Meeting rooms fitted with wireless presentation handle client pitches and hybrid calls, while the breakout lounges and coffee bar keep everyday collaboration relaxed and productive. Superfast internet, wireless presentation, air conditioning and heating, natural light, and daily cleaning are included as standard, with no separate service charge to absorb. A staffed reception, private phone booths, well-stocked kitchens on each floor, complimentary drinks, tea and coffee, and relaxed breakout lounges round out a professional, community-minded environment. Regular community events and a friendly on-site team add further appeal for members who want more than four walls.

Manchester Piccadilly station sits a short walk away, while the independent studios, bars, and restaurants of Ancoats and the Northern Quarter wait directly on the doorstep. That setting makes The Astley one of the most compelling flexible office addresses for businesses that want energy, credibility, and connectivity in equal measure.

Private offices are available on flexible all-inclusive monthly terms, with internet, utilities, cleaning, air conditioning, and building management consolidated into a single transparent fee. Terms are rolling rather than tied to a long lease, so a single monthly payment covers the workspace and its running costs with no upfront fit-out and no deposit-heavy commitment. Suites range from a self-contained four-desk studio to a ten-desk floor, each priced from £320 per desk per month plus VAT, and all are available immediately for occupation. Larger requirements can be met by combining suites, and current availability is confirmed on enquiry. For founders, agencies, and established SMEs seeking a serviced office that balances real character with everyday practicality, The Astley delivers a workspace built squarely for ambition, without the commitment or capital outlay of a conventional lease.
