  • "This is quite a find. Every detail has been thought of and Des and Lee were very accommodating. The accommodation is spotlessly clean, very well appointed and breakfast was made to our request. We would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a lovely weekend away in Melbourne. We were delighted with our stay and will definitely stay again. "

  • "This is a really cute little B&B. Des and Lee were very accommodating even with food intorlances for example they went out of their way to get the right milk and butter etc. I didn't have a car but only a short walk to the train station, depends on how fast you really want to walk can take between 10 to 20mins. Would definately recommend this place. "

  • "Unbelievable hospitality, and everything that you could possibly want as far as accomodation, cleanliness, and convenience.I will definitely be returning! (And recommending them to all my friends)This was a real find for me as I have family close by,so it was very convenient. "

  • "Our 9 night stay at the Empress Cottage was well above expectations. Des & Lee were impeccable hosts who went out of their way to assist us whenever we needed help in successfully navigating Melbourne. Bus and train stops/stations were very handy and CBD access was easy. The cottage itself (and adjoining courtyard) was superbly presented and a pleasure to stay at. Little dogs Teddy & Clio were adorable and they too welcomed us into their home. We have had no hesitation in recommending Des & Lee to friends and family who wish to visit Melbourne. Thank you again for a very memorable stay!!"

  • "Moving to Melbourne was a little daunting, but we loved our stay at Empress Cottage so much, we were actually a little disappointed when we found a rental quicker than we anticipated - we wanted to stay there longer!! Des and Lee are first class hosts, accommodating and approachable and always on hand to help with local knowledge. Clio and Teddy are adorable, and Yarraville Village contained everything we needed and was only a short stroll away. Absolutely loved it, thanks so much guys!"
