If you restrict yourself to older office versions like e.g. 2013, they should be working fine with vanilla wine. At least I remember running Word seamlessly on my gnome desktop. I even created a „desktop“ file so I could double click on word files to fire up Word. I recommend using the „play4linux“ fronted to wine which makes it rather easy to install and maintain windows applications and games.
