I stayed here for three nights and if you are looking for a B&B where the owners would do anything for you, then this is it. Lovely people and the breakfast was awesome. Fresh baked goods every day.

A most wonderful 7 days spent at Casa Chilenne. Janette is a wonderful host. Besides the amazing breakfast of homemade everything, she was very accommodating in any extra requests, like bacon and eggs. She was very helpful in our day travels to nearby areas making helpful suggestions. Also restaurant recommendations for lunch, dinner, coffee, etc. It is in a perfect location in the center of Cortona. We loved staying there.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Casa Chilenne. I came down with Covid on my second day and am forever grateful to both Jeanette and Luciano for taking care of me during my five-day quarantine. Jeanette arranged for a doctor visit and procured necessary medication. Jeanette is a fabulous cook. I enjoyed not only her delicious breakfasts (the pastries are divine!), but lunch and dinner during my quarantine. That I had the top floor to myself, more or less, was a blessing. In those five days, I took full advantage of the sunny terrace, plowed through four novels (from a healthy library), sipped tea, people watched, and closed the day with beautiful sunsets. I came to Casa Chilenne on the recommendation of a friend and it did not disappoint. I highly recommend this B and B, centrally located, but oh so peaceful.

Jeanette was the best hostess ever. She helped us with our questions and called around to find any and everything we were interested. She took a personal interest in ensuring all our needs were met. She went above and beyond, sure. And her homemade pastries! The best we have ever had anywhere let alone Italy. We will not only stay there again, but will recommend all our friends stay at Casa Chilenne when they visit the charming Cortona.

Lovely and cozy B&B, we had the best room that was very comfortable, bright, and airy. Ample wardrobe space, bathroom amenities, A/C comfort, even a small minibar with the added benefit of a washing machine, plus we had almost exclusive use of the normally shared kitchenette/living area and large patio during our 4-night stay.

Love her and her family! It's near many shops and wonderful restaurants, plus museums and beautiful sightseeing opportunities. There's also a park close by that is great for the kids. We absolutely love it at Casa Chilenne B&B.

Bring my expectations. Our hostess is from the US but moved to Cortona over 30 years ago, so no communication issues. Her baking was unbelievable. I will be dreaming of it for years. The place is rich in history and has a clothes washer. My only warning is that steps are steep to get to the rooms. There is a chair lift to sit on for those to get up the stairs or for luggage. Location perfect and loved that it was so close to public parking.

Perfect location, only a few steps from taxi or bus drop off, shopping, restaurants, etc. Our room was clean and spacious, with traditional Tuscan decor. Jeanette's baking prowess will be immediately apparent at your first breakfast.

The B&B is located in the pedestrian area but close to the jitney bus stop that runs from the train station every hour. Breakfast was made to our specifications with fresh bagels. We will return here again. Thank you Jeanette for a great time!

We spent 8 marvelous days at Casa Chilenne B&B. Jeanette and Luciano immediately made us feel comfortable and welcome. They attended to every detail and are attentive, gracious and knowledgeable, providing immeasurable advice about what to see and do in Cortona and its surroundings. Jeanette sets a delightful breakfast table. Her morning pastries are scrumptious: fresh bomboloni (filled doughnuts), croissants with luscious fillings, scones, galettes, cakes, and more. She also offers foods for heartier meals: waffles, eggs, bacon, toast, fruit, yogurt, etc. All the beverages are superb, but we were partial to their excellent caffe (espresso) and Americano coffees. The town minibus stops at Piazza Garibaldi about 90 meters (295 feet) from Casa Chilenne which is on the main road Via Nazionale. The building originally built in the 1600s, or earlier, is fully renovated with every modern convenience. We loved the high ceilings, comfortable furnishings, tastefully embossed walls and ceilings. Many Cortona streets prohibit motorized vehicles during the daytime which made walking about truly enjoyable. Thank you, Jeanette and Luciano, for an unforgettable stay. Your love of Tuscany is irresistible. We highly recommend Casa Chilenne to anyone considering a trip to Cortona. We definitely plan to return. July 2022 Geri K and Mike D.

This was my first visit to Cortona, Italy. The Casa Chilenne B&B easily receives grades of 10+ in every category. \nThe breakfasts, however, need much higher grades... about 20 would be more appropriate! \nFamily-style kindness is the norm. They are so welcoming and helpful in every way. \nI hope to return again and again to this wonderful city, and these wonderful people of Casa Chilenne B&B. \nRB.

Our stay at Casa Chilenne was outstanding. The location is not far from the square. You are in for a treat if you book a stay, Jeanette's pastries are homemade and honestly some of the best we've had while in Italy. I am partial to her almond croissants! The rooms are reasonably priced with personal service.

Spent 2 nights in Cortona at Casa Chilenne which was so conveniently located near a train station and in the City Square. The area is so lovely and our stay at the bed and breakfast was completely enjoyable. We loved our gracious hosts who took very good care of us, fed us hearty breakfasts that supplied us with energy to explore the beauty of Cortona and offered many suggestions for shopping and dining in the town where everybody knew their name! Best of all, Jeanette the hostess and I played Ukulele together after dinner one night, which was a hoot! The room we stayed in was comfortable and roomy and offered all the amenities one would find in a hotel. Love love loved the time spent in Cortona.

I rarely write reviews. When I do it is because there has been something really special that is worth sharing. At Casa Chilenne our hosts made us feel welcome and at home. This isn’t a cookie-cutter experience like staying at a chain hotel. It felt like staying at an old friend's home. In short, wonderful and a place I will come back to. Jeanette's breakfast is exceptional. A local friend called it the best breakfast in Cortona. I would agree, Jeanette clearly takes pride in her cooking, baking, and making sure your stay is memorable.

It's a beautiful building, the rooms are spacious, super clean, well-maintained, and equipped with all comforts. I loved the breakfast served with homemade pastries (our favorites), but just ask and everything will be provided. A very pleasant and positive experience!

We stayed only one night in 2 rooms (le gazze and le tortore) on the first floor of Casa Chilenne B&B. We were enthusiastic about many things: first of all, the kindness of Jeanette and her husband, two exquisite people, then the completely homemade breakfast of very high quality and with a wide choice, last but not least, the spacious rooms, with air conditioning, huge and spotlessly clean bathroom with everything you need. If we come back to Cortona, we will book here again. By the way, the B&B is located at the beginning of the historic center so easily reachable with luggage and the free parking is accessible via the escalators... so perfect!

Central location, air-conditioned and well-cleaned room, spacious shower, sweet and savory breakfast (Italian and international) carefully prepared by Jeanette, different every day but always attentive to guests' requests (and food intolerances). Rooms arranged on multiple floors but easily accessible with elevator even for the elderly. We asked the manager for directions to sports facilities in the area and places to visit, they were precise and very helpful. In my opinion, excellent value for money.
