At the Hotel

At the Hotel

Welcome to Unit 6! Today, we will learn how to check into a hotel and talk about your accommodation in Italian. Checking in is simple once you know a few key phrases.

1. Announcing Your Reservation

To let the receptionist know you have a booking, use the phrase Ho una prenotazione (I have a reservation). If you booked under a specific name, say:

  • Ho una prenotazione a nome di Marco. (I have a reservation under the name of Marco.)

2. Asking About the Room

When you want to know which room is yours, or ask about key details, use these handy patterns:

  • Dov'è la mia camera? (Where is my room?)
  • C'è il Wi-Fi? (Is there Wi-Fi?)

Common mistake: Don't confuse camera (room) with stanza—both mean room, but camera is very common in hotels!
