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...

I cannot speak too highly of 'Liz at Lancaster'. We were based there in December 2011, while we travelled around South Africa. Everything was absolutely perfect. Liz looked after our excess luggage while we were away on our travels, and we got such a warm welcome from all the staff each time we returned. Liz has thought of everything -...

The beautifully decorated rooms contain all you need to function: internet service, the means to cook, television and radio and alarm, a writing table and sofa/armchairs. A supermarket is a very short walk away and you can also walk to two nearby malls. You can relax by the pool. If you don't have a car, you can use either taxis...

We stayed at Liz's guesthouse as part of our honeymoon in early November. I could not fault a thing! The rooms, breakfast, hospitality were second to none and it was excellent value for money. Liz has thought of everything! If we go back to Jo'berg again there is nowhere else we would stay :)

We arrived in Johannesburg at 6.00pm in a thunderstorm after a 16 hr flight from Atlanta, US. We felt very welcome and at home immediately. Every little detail is attended to and everywhere is super clean. We stayed three nights and were upgraded to the Yellow Cottage which is lovely. Large bedroom with king bed. Large living room/kitchen very well...

Thank you Lady P for sharing your experience of Liz at Lancaster with the Tripadvisor community. Arriving in a Joburg thunderstorm is quite a dramatic event in itself. As I write this the rain is bucketing down - no lightning or thunder though as otherwise my computer would be closed down and unplugged. It is good that you found the...

Liz and her staff are welcoming, helpful, and chock full of advice on what to do and where to shop. Liz's jack of all trades, Zack, will...

Just an amazing experience for out last night in South Africa.
We arrived directly from Kruger park, and after 10 hours on the road, Liz guest house was the closest to home in South Africa.
We had one last day in Johannesburg, and with nothing arranged, we were full of questions and doubts, that Liz solved and arranged as soon...
