FAQs

Question

Do you have any hotel recommendations?

Answer

We will be staying at Locke de Santa Joana, please navigate to the Travel tab for more details on booking and using our discount code. Holiday Inn Express Lisbon - Ave. Liberdade by IHG is a good budget option that is a 8-min walk away from our hotel. We do not have a discount code for this property. For those looking to stay in an Airbnb or VRBO we recommend staying in close proximity to Locke de Santa Joana. Also, check booking.com before you book as most times the property from Airbnb or VRBO is posted there for less.
