Time difference between London and Rome

Rome is 1 hour ahead of London

London, the United Kingdom is UTC · Rome, Italy is UTC+1 — on standard time

The gap holds all year

Neither city changes its clocks — London goes forward on the last Sunday in March and back on the last Sunday in October and Rome goes forward on the last Sunday in March and back on the last Sunday in October — so 1 hour is the difference in January and in July alike. That is worth knowing about this pair specifically, because most international pairs do move and a recurring meeting between them does not need checking twice a year.
