A Breakfast Worth Waking up For

The working day breakfast can be a gulp and dash, but we believe that breakfast with us should be a little more. We’ve selected our breakfast ingredients to reflect the best our territory has to offer with a variety which suits your breakfast style; dashing or leisurely.

Since we opened in 2008 we have relied on MokaPiù, a small local coffee roaster located in Arezzo to bring us their select, fresh roasted coffee weekly. Both our Italian espresso coffee drinks and American style electric drip are prepared with their gold blend- many of our guests like it so much they want to bring some home.

For those who prefer other beverages at breakfast, we pride ourselves in offering a wide variety of teas and infusions from the Twinings collection, a selection of fruit juices and hot chocolate for our guests.

Our milk, cream, yogurts, butter and eggs are fresh and produced in Tuscany . Our eggs are guaranteed and certified to be from free range chickens.

Our pastries are made by the historic Cortonese pasticceria of the Banchelli family. Baked fresh each day and delivered to our door or homemade with fresh and seasonal ingredients.

We feature local cheeses and coldcuts on our buffet bar and our fruit basket holds seasonal fresh fruit. For light or continental breakfast eaters we also offer cereals and biscuits with organic jams and honey.

American breakfast specialties are offered every day, from eggs and bacon made fresh as you like them to waffles and pancakes served with real Canadian maple syrup. With advanced notice we can offer alternatives for most guests with dietary limitations.

Jeannette could not be anymore welcoming friendly and helpful, she is just wonderful and she makes the most incredible fresh breakfasts for guests. We absolutely loved our stay here. It is in the most perfect location in cortona perfectly central with a lovely little balcony over looking the picturesque streets of Cortona. My parents and I loved our stay here and can't wait to return.

Siamo stati accolti dalla Sig.ra Jeanette, ospiti per una notte nel suo B&B: nel pieno centro di Cortona, camere spaziose, pulite e accoglienti, dotate di tutti i confort (wi-fi, saponi..). La colazione e' per tutti i palati: dal dolce al salato. Jeanette prepara in casa muffins, pancake, uova strapazzate e bacon .. tutto super !! Cordialità e attenzione al cliente, assolutamente da provare.

We stayed here for 5 nights and it was an excellent choice. Casa Chilenne is located in the heart of Cortona, easily accessible from a car park. Our room 'Il Nido' was in typical Toscany style with a little balcony. There is a living room for all guests and nice tarrace to drink afternoon coffee. Jeanette, the owner, is hapefull, friendly and makes the best breakfast with woffels and eggs in American style. She also bakes great cakes every day! If you're looking for warm, family atmosphere and great quality for reasonable price this is a top choice!

Well Jeanette, Luciano and certainly Carlotta and Daisy create a wonderful home away from home. The little doorway takes you into a welcoming house where the best breakfast in all of Cortona is prepared for guests. Make this your Home on Cortona and you will not regret it whether you stay one night of weeks.
