### Polite Requests with *Vorrei*

When booking a service or asking for amenities, using the present tense **voglio** (I want) can sound too direct. To make a polite request, Italian uses **vorrei** (I would like), the first-person present conditional form of the verb **volere** (to want).

You can use **vorrei** directly before a noun to politely ask for an item or service. Adding **per favore** (please) makes it even more polite.

You can also pair **vorrei** with an infinitive verb to express an action you would like to take, such as booking a treatment or using a facility.

### Asking What is Included

While at the spa, you might need to ask if certain services or amenities are part of your package. Use the adjective **incluso** (included). Because it functions as an adjective, its ending must agree in gender and number with the noun it describes.
