My husband and I had a wonderful experience at the 34 GuestHouse. We stayed for 3-nights as I was competing in a tennis tournament that took place at the nearby Clube Tenis Setúbal. We loved the character and charm of the property, which does not give you the routine chain hotel vibe at all. Our room (the “Aveiro”) was very comfortable and clean, tastefully decorated, and the amenities great. All respect to the owner Sara and her staff who do a great job! They made us feel very welcome, and went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable; a true sample of excellent hospitality! Thank you so much! Morning breakfast arranged for us was super - freshly cut fruit, cheese/ham, omelet, mozzarella/tomato bruschetta, fresh bread/croissants, and a selection of cereals, yogurt, beverages, etc. Also most appreciated were the chocolate macaroons left in our room; a lovely touch. As the hotel is situated in an excellent central location, we took advantage to walk to sights and to dinner. The selection of fish restaurants is fantastic; we dined at “Casa do Mar”, and “Baia do Mar” which did not disappoint. The evening we had a hankering for meat, we had a fabulous meal at “Carnes do Convento”. Sights we found well worth a visit, are: "Fortaleza de São Filipe” which is easily reached from the hotel by a 30-minute hike, has panoramic views of Setúbal, the Atlantic, and the Troia Peninsula. The “Capela de São Filipe” is housed within the complex and is decorated with traditional Portuguese blue and white-glazed tiles; and “Casa da Baía” serves as an exhibition space, as well as having a café in a cloistered courtyard garden; and “Mercado do Livramento”, a lively atmosphere for foodies with an array of fresh fish and produce; and “Monastery of Jesus”, built in the 1490s as a convent for nuns, with a 16th-century church, small art museum, and restaurant attached. We definitely will return to Setúbal and will stay again at the 34 GuestHouse.

Wow! Wow! Wow! We came for 3 nights, and stayed for 8! Every room is immaculately & luxuriously designed. Very relaxing, with an amazingly friendly team. We absolutely loved our refreshing stay in 34 Guesthouse. Setubal itself is quirky and interesting. Lots to do & see - and very friendly people.

Parking is an issue. No hotel parking. But I don believe there is really a good remedy for this.

Very professional and friendly staff. The hotel is beautiful and very well organized and clean. We had an amazing room with a very nice balcony area. We will return anytime we are in the area.

We had a warm welcome, the room was very clean, the bed super comfortable. It's just 5 minutes walking to the market and the city center. I loved the design of our room with a small balcony too. I will definitely stay again.

We had a lovely stay at 34 Guest House. We were on honey moon and were treated like king & Queen with a romantic set surprise in an upgraded bedroom (sparkling wine, rose petals on the bed, chocolates). The room was perfect, clean and very comfortable, wonderful, with a nice bacolny. Sofia took care of all our needs via Whatsapp. She recommended nice restaurant around (Sem horas). We also recommend the breakfeast wich was a nice tasty buffet. We highly recommend 34 guest house and will come back for sure.

Everything. Nothing was too much trouble. We arrived late and you stayed to greet us and make us feel welcome. Lovely relaxing breakfast and once again lots of advice and useful information. We loved it

The staff is fantastic. The hotel is more a botique hotel than a guest house. Style and elegance in every detail!

Great hosts, very friendly, responsive and helpful. They helped me with the reservations at the restaurants, booking the taxi to the airport, even got a teapot at the room when I asked for hot water. Beautifully decorated, unique place with lots of nice details. Great location! Very clean and comfortable.

Very luxurious feel. The rooms are beautiful and all decorated differently and with a touch of the city in Portugal they are called. The staff were fantastic! Very helpful, made us feel at ease. The breakfast was tasty and outside courtyard was beautiful. Attention to detail of the decor is magnificent. Will be back!!!

can not find anything to improve.

Traveled to Setubal with my son for 3 days. When we arrived Sofia offered us a welcome drink, juice for my son and muscatel for me. She offered us a fresh pashtel de nata. The room was nice and clean, nice balcony where was pleasant to have an espresso for room coffee machine. every day we got a bottle of cool water in the room. The bathroom was very clean and I like a lot smell of the shampoo and lotion. All shower products was made in Portugal and had very good quality. The room for breakfast designed with soul. It is modern and beautiful. We had an option to sit inside or at nice patio. The breakfast was very nice - fresh bakery, croissants, cheese, ham and jam and honey. For cereals lower was good choice. All kind of milk was presented and always a fresh juice. One day when we planned to go to the beach Sofia made for us a sandwiches, it was very kind from her side and showed respect and care of the clients. Sofia was very helpful and ordered for us a trip for wine farm Jose Maria de Fonseca. It was fantastic and very close to Setubal. I am very happy that met Carla, the owner of the hotel, at the evening Carla knocked the door and offered us freshly backed Pashtel de Nata. Love it. Thank you Carla for city tour, it was too pleasant to visit designer Joao Maria show room, who decorated the 34 Guest House fantastically beautiful. We visited also Setubal Market and city Hall. Thank once more, Carla for your hospitality and warm reception. For sure all guest will feel like at home.
