Avete camere accessibili per persone con mobilità ridotta?

Do you have accessible rooms for people with limited mobility?

Pronunciation

'Mobilità' — stress the last syllable: 'mo-bi-li-TÀ'. 'Accessibili' — 'ac-ces-SI-bi-li'.

When to use it

Ask before booking if you or a companion have mobility issues. Do not assume — many Italian historic hotels are not adapted.

What it means

'Mobilità ridotta' = limited mobility. This is the standard Italian bureaucratic and medical phrase. 'Accessibile' = accessible. Italian accessibility law (Legge 13/1989) requires new buildings to be accessible, but older structures are exempt.
