Top coworking spaces in Brussels 2024
The largest municipality of the Brussels-Capital region, the city of Brussels is at once a historical, political, cultural and economic center for Europe. It is the administrative center of the European Union and many European institutions have their headquarters in its European quarter. NATO also has its base in the city. Its many museums and rich culinary heritage make it a beloved destination for tourists and its very cosmopolitan population is one of its most attractive qualities. Remotely Serious has compiled a list of coworking spaces for you to stay productive during your visit or longer stay in BXL!
The Mug Brussels Coworking Space
