Happy Guests
Since opening our doors in 1919, Kitchener's has welcomed countless visitors. Here are some reviews from our most recent guests.
I stayed at the Kitcheners. Fabulous guest house with panoramic views of the North Sea from my beautiful room( room 2) my stay was supplemented with an excellent breakfast skillfully supervised by the bubbly Haley. This set me up for the day. I spent time burning off the calories by walking along the seafront and stopping off for a quick refuelling at the local hostelry. Thank you, Lowestoft for a super break and to the Kitcheners for a wonderful stay. To quote someone famous, I’LL BE BACK.
Hey, better late than never. We just wanted to say big thank you for your hospitality – we visited in September but only remembered now to leave a review. Very interesting place, lovely couple running it. The room was clean, we had a nice full English breakfast, enjoyed our evening playing pool and listening to old music on a tower HiFi …such a classic! And the beach is on the doorstep! Super getaway. Thank you.
Perfectly placed for exploring Norfolk and Suffolk we stayed there for a week. Ash, his wife and the staff could not have been more helpful or friendly. As a veteran I was astounded at the amount of memorabilia on show and even found artefacts from old comrades. Breakfast is great.
