Ask at reception if you forgot your adapter. Most hotels have a small supply of adapters guests can borrow.
'Adattatore' (adapter) is used for both electrical adapters and other types of connectors. Italy uses Type F and Type L plugs (220V/50Hz). Travellers from the UK, US, or Australia typically need an adapter.
