Ask anyone who’s ever worked from home, and they’ll tell you—it’s not always as productive (or inspiring) as it sounds. That’s exactly why hot desking has become a game-changer for professionals. After trying coworking spaces across Montreal, you’ll find that Nuage B offers something uniquely different—not just in the quality of its workspaces, but in the entire ecosystem around it.
If you’re wondering, “What is hot desking?”, here’s not just a definition—but what it feels like when done right.
Hot Desking, Defined Simply
Hot desking is the practice of using a non-dedicated desk in a shared space. You don’t own the desk. You just book it in advance. You walk in, choose any open spot, set up your laptop, and get to work.
At Nuage B, this means having access to a clean, bright, professionally maintained workspace without the commitment of a long-term lease. Everything is ready when you arrive—Wi-Fi, outlets, chairs, coffee, printers, meeting rooms, and most importantly, an environment designed for focus.
But Hot Desking at Nuage B Is Different
When you first walk into Nuage B, you won’t be just stepping into a coworking office space—you’ll be entering Château Saint-Ambroise, one of Montreal’s most charming business hubs.
Here’s what you’ll find only at Nuage B:
A Historic Location, Reimagined for Modern Work
Nuage B is located inside Château Saint-Ambroise, an old industrial complex turned modern business community. It’s not just coworking—it’s a fully immersive work environment. You’re sharing the building with cafés, restaurants, a tattoo shop, wellness services, creative agencies, and so much more.
Forget stepping outside for a coffee or lunch meeting—you don’t even need to leave the building.
Terrace Breaks & Canal Walks
Need a reset? Head to the terrace to catch some sun or grab a breath of fresh air. Or take your coffee and walk just a few steps to the Lachine Canal, right in the backyard. It’s rare to find a coworking space in Montreal where you can work hard and still reconnect with nature in minutes.
Yes, There’s Free Parking
This one’s a hidden gem: Nuage B offers free parking. Anyone who’s tried coworking downtown knows that just finding affordable parking can be a full-time job. At Nuage B, it’s one less thing to worry about.
Who Should Use a Hot Desk?
Freelancers & Remote Workers
If you’re tired of isolating Zoom calls from your kitchen table or fighting for space at your local café, hot desking is your solution. You’ll get the structure of an office and the freedom to use it only when you need it.
Startups & Small Teams
Hot desking is a cost-efficient way to give your team a home base without the overhead. You can scale your presence as your company grows—without signing long-term leases or investing in office furniture.
Consultants & Creatives
For people like designers, writers, strategists, or project-based consultants, hot desking means mobility without sacrifice. You get a desk when you need it, access to meeting rooms for clients, and a prestigious Montreal address that makes a great impression.

Is Hot Desking Right for You?
Not every job needs a fixed office. And not every coworking space offers the flexibility and quality Nuage B provides. If you want a professional space that adapts to your rhythm, hot desking is worth exploring.
But if you need more privacy or permanence, Nuage B also offers dedicated desks, private offices, and virtual office services—each with the same community access and incredible location perks.
What About Privacy? Alternative Solutions at Nuage B
While hot desking offers flexibility, some professionals may need more privacy or a dedicated space. If you require:
- A permanent desk → Check out our dedicated workstations.
- A private space for confidential work → Consider private office rentals.
- A professional address without a physical office → Our virtual office solutions offer mail handling and administrative support.
At Nuage B, we provide workspace solutions tailored to every need, ensuring professionals have the right environment to succeed.
You’re Not Just Renting a Desk—You’re Choosing a Lifestyle
As someone who uses hot desks regularly, I can tell you: there’s something powerful about walking into a space that feels intentional—not transactional. At Nuage B, every element is designed to help you focus, connect, and grow—without ever feeling generic or corporate.
Hot desking isn’t just about saving money. It’s about working in a place that works for you.
