Do you have an example of where you didn't find such information?
I don't know exactly which parking lots you are referring to, but when you have that kind of parking lot where you take a ticket at the entrance, you also have a sign telling you what is the hour rate. This is a common type of parking also in italy and, as everywhere in the world, we have the prices shown at the entrance.
There could be exception to that, as sometimes I also saw abroad missing prices at the entrance, but they are just a small minority.

Prices should be clearly marked and visibly displayed by law. Failing this you can try using Parkopedia which tends to keep up to date with parking prices around the world.

Here is an example of price label shown on such parking payment devices.
