I spent 5 weeks at Liz@Lancaster while a Visiting Professor at Wits University. Being away for such a long time can be very difficult but staying at this beautiful B&B made me feel like I was at home. The staff - Zach, Catherine, and Rosemary - were efficient and thoughtful, and Liz herself was attentive to every detail, large or... More

My friend and I recently spent 4 nights in Johannesburg and stayed at Liz at Lancaster's. The accommodations were large and comfortable with everything needed...bottled water brought in regularly, coffee, tea, etc., updated bathroom, patio, etc. Perfect breakfast. But was really set it apart was the helpfulness of Liz and her staff. Johannesburg was a late addition to our africa... More

Staying with Liz and her wonderful staff, Catherine, Thandie, Rosemary and Zac was a perfect way to start our holiday. Arriving stressed and tired, the warm welcome that awaited us was just what we needed. Our room was large, airy and extremely comfortable - we wanted for nothing. Attention to detail throughout was superb whether it be in the bedroom,... More

Best decision ever for Christmas!! Impossible to fault. A very warm welcome from Liz and the staff, the rooms comfortable, nay, luxurious, the setting perfect with mature trees and birds everywhere. Such dedicated, personal attention that one almost hesitated to mention the smallest whim, since it was sure to appear. Indeed, there were few whims as everything had been thought... More

Our family (three young children) stayed at this perfect guest house for 3 too short days earlier this month. Liz, Catherine, Thandie and Rosemary were so welcoming and friendly, the rooms were gorgous and the location in Craighall Park a perfect place from which to explore some of what Johannesburg has to offer. We arrived tired and travel sore after... More

It was important that I find a place that offered comfort, convenience, privacy, flexibility in terms of meals. I found it all at Liz's. Airport transfers were arranged, and on arrival, Liz was there to welcome me in person. The... More

We stayed at New Year in Liz at Lancaster, with a four year old and the grandparents and everyone enjoyed themselves a lot. The pool area and gardens are idyllic, the breakfast with fresh fruit salads are a treat and there is a lot of effort going into personalised attention. We feel that every guest is treated as an individual... More

After searching for convenient, safe and comfortable B&B style accommodation in Gauteng (Johannesburgh) I uncovered Liz on Lancaster's extraordinary gem. This is a B&B that really sets the standard, and don't be mislead into thinking this means expensive, quite the contrary as it is extremely good value for money. We used a twin room which was immaculately set up with... More

I chose to stay at Liz after reading the excellent reviews here. Enjoyed my stay tremendously. Rooms are excellently furnished and beds are comfortable. Can really see the great attention to details. Breakfast is good too! And add to that the friendly service by everyone from Liz, to Catherine and Thandie. Really deserves the five star rating from Tripadvisor. The... More
