4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 May 2013 NEW

Maseru has some very expensive and cheap hotels (the latter of which should be avoided), with not too much in-between. Lancer's Inn is the best in the moderate priced stakes and right in the centre of town. You could easily walk to many places. I stayed in one of the rooms, not the rondavels. It was quiet and clean, although... More

This is a good alternative to the Lesotho Sun—less expensive and the in-town location is very convenient for several restaurant options, and the near-by Shoprite and Pioneer Mall are easy walking distance. The included breakfast is good—fruit, juice and cereal, plus eggs cooked to order. The rondavels are spacious, and equipped with combination AC/heat pumps, so they are cosy even... More

Just returned to UK after week in Lesotho. Stayed at the Lancer's for 2 nights in the new rondeveld style room. Very comfortable and great service. Evening meal was good and breakfast was satisfying. Thanks again for a great stay.

Clean, efficient inn in the heart of Maseru. Nothing fancy but very comfortable. Staff competent if a bit slow to respond sometimes, but they will respond. Easy walking distance to shopping and many government offices. Nice breakfast (eggs to order), cereal, etc. Nice stay, I would stay here again.

Currently staying in this hotel in Maseru. Facilities and rooms are clean and well maintained. Staff are friendly particularly the Front Office staff led by either Agnes or Belina; both staff will try to help you as much as possible. Location is strategic particularly as it fronts Alliance Francaise which hosts an acceptable cafe - a good place for breakfast.... More

This hotel has been updated since I last visited it in 2011. The room that we stayed in for two weeks was just right for the pool and clean. The staff were pleasant although one or two individuals seemed not to understand requests for help. I did prefer this hotel to the two other larger ones in Maseru as it... More

I stayed at the Lancer's for two weeks in October/November. The staff was very friendly and ready to help. There was plenty of hot water and clean rooms. They changed my room swiftly when i did not like it. The rondavels were lovely albeit cold. My only problem was that the internet access was not very good in the hotel... More

This is a very nice inn in Maseru. If you want to stay in a place that has a larger menu of hotel services, then there are other options. I prefer Lancer's Inn for its personable quality, cozy resturant, and great staff that helped me out on several occasions. Being in town, you can walk to several stores & resturants... More

Stayed here for 3 nights on a recent business trip. First impression upon arrival wasn't too positive - the receptionist may have had an offday - but altogether it was a pleasant stay. Breakfast OK, the hotel restaurant served good food at very reasonable prices. Room (one of the rondavels in the wellkept garden) was not super luxurious but absolutely... More

The over priced Sun hotels led me to look at guesthouses in Maseru. This guesthouse is no frills but not at all unpleasant. The rooms are adequately appointed, but there are no amenities in the rooms. The restaurant on site is handy and the food is pretty ok. The central location is also a plus.
