Most affordable offices by per-sqm rate, June 2026
For businesses comparing value across districts, the most cost-efficient options per square metre are concentrated outside the main coastal commercial belt. Pietà, Paola, and Birkirkara offer the lowest annual per-sqm rates on the market this month, while delivering professional premises with good infrastructure.
1. Office Space Pietà — €149/sqm/year | 165 sqm | €2,050/month
The most competitively priced option per square metre currently available in Malta. This 165 sqm office on the second floor of a business centre between Valletta and Sliema is suitable for 10 to 15 desks. The layout includes an open-plan area, two private office rooms, a kitchenette, and two bathrooms. The building is equipped with lifts, a standby generator, and optional car parking. The roof garden one floor above, available 24/7, is an unusual amenity at this price point.
2. Paola Office for Rent — €150/sqm/year | 290 sqm | €3,625/month
The largest floor plate in this selection and the second-lowest rate per sqm. At 290 sqm, this modern office in Paola’s commercial district is priced to reflect the location’s position outside the premium coastal zones. The layout supports 30 to 40 employees, with ten private offices, two soundproof meeting booths, a large open-plan zone, and a server room. Shared building amenities include a cafeteria, gym, and top-floor meeting room. Note that common area maintenance charges apply in addition to the quoted rent. Grand Harbour views are a notable bonus.
3. Modern Open Plan Office Birkirkara — €158/sqm/year | 160 sqm | €2,100/month
A well-established commercial space in central Birkirkara at one of the lowest absolute rents in this list. At 160 sqm, it is suited to teams of 12 to 20. The open-plan configuration offers flexibility for desk arrangement, and the central location provides straightforward access to the main road network for staff commuting from across Malta.
4. Affordable Spacious St Julian’s Office — €165/sqm/year | 175 sqm | €2,400/month
For businesses that require a St Julian’s address but are working within a tighter budget, this 175 sqm space close to the seafront is notable.

A 360° virtual tour is available on the listing page.
Best value centrally located offices
5. 20 Desk Office Mriehel (CBD) — €191/sqm/year | 160 sqm | €2,550/month
Mriehel’s Central Business District typically commands higher rates than this for business centre space. At €191/sqm/year, this 160 sqm office within a modern business centre — with shared reception, lounge, bookable meeting rooms, lift, generator, and reserved parking — represents strong value for teams of 15 to 25. Common area costs apply above the quoted rate, which should be factored into total occupancy cost comparisons. This is a well-suited option for iGaming, tech, or financial services firms seeking CBD credibility without a premium price.
6. Modern Office Swatar — €189/sqm/year | 190 sqm | €3,000/month
Swatar is a practical mid-island location with good road access to Mriehel, Birkirkara, and the airport.

Suitable for 15 to 20 desks, with a full floor plan and 360° virtual tour available on the listing.
Seafront offices under 300 sqm

7. Seafront Balluta Office Space — €173/sqm/year | 250 sqm | €3,600/month
Described on the listing as the best-priced office currently available given its location, this 250 sqm dual-floor space at Balluta Bay delivers sea views, executive suites, meeting rooms, a server room, a private backyard, and optional parking. For a seafront address in St Julian’s at €173/sqm/year, this is an objectively unusual market position. Suitable for 20 to 35 desks.
8. Modern Office With Seafront Views — €189/sqm/year | 175 sqm | €2,750/month
A first-floor office on the Msida/Pietà seafront with panoramic marina and garden views. At 175 sqm with an open-plan area, boardroom, three executive rooms, two bathrooms, and a kitchen, it suits 5 to 12 employees. The building has a generator, in-house management team, and CCTV. A terrace area is accessible. Note that a monthly flat-rate generator charge of €100 plus VAT applies separately.
9. St Julian’s Seafront Office — €274/sqm/year | 161 sqm | €3,675/month
A duplex seafront office directly overlooking the water in St Julian’s. At 161 sqm across two interconnected levels with a private entrance, this suits boutique businesses of 8 to 15 that require both sea views and management-level privacy. The listing includes a 360° virtual tour. At €274/sqm/year it carries a premium over inland options but is well below what similar seafront addresses typically command in this district.
Sliema offices currently available
10. Modern Office Space Sliema — €255/sqm/year | 200 sqm | €4,250/month
A sixth-floor office in a prime central Sliema commercial building. The layout includes two front rooms with balcony access and sea views, a meeting room, server room, open workspace for approximately ten desks, and a kitchenette. Elevator access is wheelchair-compliant. The space is offered unfurnished, allowing full configuration flexibility. Suited to teams of 15 to 20.
11. Sliema 25 Desk Office Space — €249/sqm/year | 280 sqm | €5,800/month
The largest and highest-rent office in this selection, but priced meaningfully below the Sliema market average for equivalent floor plates. At 280 sqm with a flexible layout designed around 25 desks, this is suited to growing teams that need room to scale within a central Sliema address. The listing was updated in April 2026 and the space is available immediately.
Serviced office for small teams
12. Eight Desk Serviced Office Burmarrad — €407/sqm/year | 28 sqm | €950/month
The smallest and most affordable absolute monthly rent in this selection. At €950/month for a fully furnished, air-conditioned serviced office in Burmarrad with lift access, this suits a team of 6 to 10 that wants a private, ready-to-use space without a long-term commitment or fit-out cost. The per-sqm rate is the highest in this list, which is typical for serviced offices — but the total monthly cost is the lowest. For businesses with limited headcount and a central Malta location requirement, this is the most accessible entry point.
How to choose the right option for your business
The twelve offices above cover a wide range of sizes, locations, and cost profiles. The right choice depends on three variables that are specific to your business: total budget including VAT and any service charges, the number of staff who will use the office regularly, and the location requirements of your team and clients.
>For businesses prioritising cost per seat, the Pietà, Paola, and Birkirkara options deliver the most space per euro. For businesses where address credibility and client-facing presentation matter, the seafront options in St Julian’s and the Balluta Bay listing stand out. Moreover, For small teams that want a fully managed environment with no capital outlay, the Burmarrad serviced office is the most straightforward path to immediate occupation.
