The Ministry, Borough | Workspace & Members' Club in London

Location & Overview at The Ministry

The Ministry is based in a converted Victorian printworks just a few minutes walk from Borough and Elephant & Castle stations. From the outside there's no indication of what to expect, but with 50,000 sq ft of coworking space, a gym, event venues, and a cocktail bar, it's anything but small. The building is part of the Ministry of Sound family, and it shows: every detail feels curated, from the mood lighting to the custom sound system in the gym. It's a workspace that doubles as a social club, designed for creatives, startups, and companies looking for more than just a desk.

Working at The Ministry

Coworking here is flexible and functional. Hot desks are available in the members' lounge, with cozy booths and sofas for when you need a change of pace.

The building is open 24/7 for members, and includes high-speed Wi-Fi, soundproof phone booths, concierge service, and everything from printers to private meeting rooms.

Interior at The Ministry

The Ministry building has high ceilings, exposed brick, and a mix of old-school charm with clean, modern finishes.

There's a rooftop terrace and a sleek copper bar for lunch offers or evening events, giving the space a social energy even after work hours. The gym is another standout: full Technogym setup, Peloton bikes, personal training, and group classes ranging from yoga to strength training. Even the vanity area feels luxe, with fluffy towels, showers, and mirrors for getting ready post-workout or pre-event.
