In Italy there is some sort of anti- terror law that prevents one from bringing guests to their hotel room?

My friend lives in Rome and when I go to visit them I was wondering If they will be able to come up to my room?In Italy there is some sort of anti- terror law that prevents one from bringing guests to their hotel room?
Sibbi is right and wrong. It really depends on the city you are visiting and the hotel owner. I live in Italy, and work in the hotel industry. When I worked in Modena, you could have guests in your room but not for more than a few hours. They had to leave an id at the reception. If the police came by to ';check things out'; and saw that there was someone in the hotel (room not lobby) that was not registered, the hotel got fined. Now, this never happened when I was there (thank God because my boss would have kicked my a.s.s), but it did happen. I recall reading in the newspaper that a hotel got shut down for a few months because they would let people come and go, and didn't register anyone. I live and work in Livigno now, and things here are a lot easier. I don't ask the clients guests to leave me ids or anything. Heck, I don't even register everyone who is staying in the hotel. In Modena, this was impossibile to do. So, as you can see it depends on the city. If you don't want to risk it just have your friends leave their ids or passports at the counter. Then when they leave, just tell them to ask for them back again. Oh, if you go to an international calling center or internet-point/bar, they will ask you for an id or passport. This is for the Italian anti-terrorism law.In Italy there is some sort of anti- terror law that prevents one from bringing guests to their hotel room?
You should have no problems with having friends over in your hotel, they can just not stay the night. There is no need to ask anyone just walk straight to your room.
