Santa Cruz Holidays from AU$3,009

The hotel is a 5 minute walk to the river and staff extremely welcoming and helpful The room was clean and bed extremely comfortable. Breakfast was very good and worth doing. Majority of the places that we were visiting were not walkable so used Uber all the time and prices were very competitive. Didn’t use a taxi and were told to be careful and if we did to go by the meter and not agree a price - several people had said that they had been ripped off If you go to the Jerónimos Monastery we had to cue for over 45 minutes in the heat which seems to be the norm. Once inside there is no where to sit so be aware you could be along time on your feet For football fans the Benfica Stadium and museum tour is good but pitch was being relaid so couldn’t go on it. Sporting were undergoing renovation work so were unable to get inside the stadium - conclusion probably better to do the visit during the football season. One other thing to be aware of is the tic tic vehicles - we were warned off them and from what we saw was probably correct plus they are expensive

Friendly, helpful staff, and central location for access to Museum and Church of St. Roche, plus excellent restaurants

This hotel is just beautiful and luxurious! The breakfast is one of the best buffets I have ever had. Staff is super nice. Location is great!

Loved my stay here. Perfect location and the staff was so kind and accommodating. Can’t wait to go back.

From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with warm hospitality and thoughtful service that stays consistent throughout your stay. The staff go above and beyond in every interaction—always kind, attentive, and genuinely interested in making sure you feel welcome and cared for. Every little detail feels curated with comfort and elegance in mind, from the decor to the amenities. The hotel itself is beautifully designed—charming, intimate, and refined, striking that perfect balance between modern luxury and cozy warmth. It’s the kind of place where you can really relax and enjoy some peace away from the noise of the city. That said, the one small downside is its location. It’s not right in the heart of downtown Lisbon, so if you’re hoping to walk out and be immediately surrounded by shops and major landmarks, this might feel a little tucked away. But if you’re okay with a quick ride into the city center, the tranquility and high level of service more than make up for it. Overall, this hotel offered one of the best stays I’ve had in Lisbon. If you’re looking for a luxurious, peaceful, and well-run hotel with truly outstanding service, Wine & Books is a fantastic choice. I’d stay here again.
