Office asking rents across the markets 1001square covers range from roughly €14/m²/month in regional CEE cities to €42/m²/month in Luxembourg. The gap is driven by supply, building class and how much international demand a city attracts. Here are the ballpark figures, updated from live listings.
Average office asking rents (2026)

Brussels — €26.00
Warsaw — €24.50

These are asking rents - what landlords advertise before negotiation. Signed rents typically land 5-15% below once rent-free periods and fit-out incentives are factored in. Add service charges of €3-6/m²/month on top.
What drives the differences
- Supply and vacancy. Tight markets like Luxembourg and Dubai command a premium; cities with new supply coming online are softer.
- Building class. Prime Class-A space can cost 40-60% more than older Class-B stock in the same city.
- District. Metro-connected central districts run 20-40% above the city average; suburbs run below it.
- International demand. Cities that attract finance, tech and shared-service centres see rents pulled up by competition for the best space.
