Back to Top What about air-conditioning? Europeans are not as big on air-conditioning as many are. This is primarily because they perceive it doesn't get overly hot in summer, many buildings are thick walled, historic structures.

Where air-conditioning is indicated its operation is governed by strict national energy regualtions (cooling and heating).

All properties in Italy, hotels, restaurants, shopping centres, domestic accommodation, everyone has a limit on operating times and temperature (minimum 27C / 80F) of air-conditioning as governed by nationwide environmental regulations & the European Union, it is not specific to the guest house, they have to comply and the respective municipalities certify that.

The same energy regulation measures apply in all EU countries, it does not matter what price you are paying or where you are staying.

City June July August Sept
Rome 78/25.5 84/29 84/29 79/26
Florence 81/27 88/31 87/30.5 81/27
Venice
77/25 82/28 81/27 75/24

These are the average maximum temperatures (°F / °C) so they represent the peak temperature in the middle of the day. Don't forget you will be spending most of your time in the guest house at night when the temperature will have dropped.

Many guest houses rely upon the older ways of keeping cool eg. fans in rooms, courtyards and thick walls therefore not all monasteries have air-conditioning.

The Heating/Cooling situation we have been advised from each venue, is detailed by the Facilities section of every guest house information page, roll over the icons for an explanantion of the Facility and the icon for more information.
