Do you have a lost and found box?
smar-RI-ti — three syllables, stress on the second.
When you have lost an item during your stay or are checking if something left behind has been found.
'Oggetti smarriti' means 'lost items' — 'smarriti' is the past participle of 'smarrire' (to lose/misplace). In Italian hotels and public places, the 'ufficio oggetti smarriti' (lost property office) is where you report lost items. Hotels typically hold found items for up to 90 days.
Ho perso il portafoglio in camera.
I lost my wallet in the room.
Report lost items immediately — hotel housekeeping turns in found items to reception
Ho dimenticato qualcosa in camera al momento del check-out.
I left something in the room at check-out.
Call the hotel as soon as you realise — items are often still in the room
Qualcuno ha trovato il mio caricatore?
Has anyone found my charger?
Chargers and phone cables are among the most commonly forgotten items in hotel rooms
Italian hotels are legally required to keep found items for a defined period. High-value items like wallets, phones, and jewellery are typically handed directly to the hotel manager and logged. Always report lost items formally so there is a record.
