  1. When people are entering from e.g. Google Hotel Ads the landing page is always the distributor link (technically it is not possible to link the ads to the widget integrated booking engine)

    Problem then is that users can not go to the homepage of the hotel directly.

    It is a learned & normal website usability that logos are clickable and lead to the homepage if a website.

    For me it is a must have.

  2. Many properties operate with a multitude of connections to distribution partners:-
    - Direct connectivity to Booking & Expedia (and I expect more in the future)
    - A channel Manager ex. SiteMinder to connect to all the others
    - A GDS / BE representing company like SynXis on behalf of Relais & Châteaux (RC) or Small Luxury Hotels (SLH)

    It should be possible when setting up Channel Managers (all of the above) or Distribution partners if this is a better terminology to indicate in the connection if a confirmation should be sent.

    I know that most OTA's will not allow for…

  3. Spaces are shown in the BE based on the rate group and cancellation policy. For a hostel with dorms, rooms and beds, this make the dorms and rooms to be displayed firt (more expensive) rather than the beds (less expensive) and potential customers are easily discouraged when they only look at the first elements shown. It would be helpful to choose wich space type show first regardless of the pricing configuration.

  4. Description:
    We have encountered a recurring issue with guests misunderstanding the price of room upgrades during the online check-in process. In some cases, guests confuse the per-night upgrade price with the total price for their stay, leading to disputes at check-out.
    To enhance clarity and prevent such misunderstandings, we suggest implementing an automatic upgrade confirmation email that clearly states:
    The selected upgrade details
    The final total price of the upgrade
    A breakdown of costs if applicable
    This confirmation email should be sent to both the guest and the hotel staff upon upgrade selection. This would allow front desk employees to…

  6. Bei den Anfrage- und Optionsmails wird automatisch die Anreiseinfo des Zimmers mit gesendet. Da der Gast aber noch nicht gebucht hat ist es nicht wünschenswert das er bereits den Wlan-Code für das jeweilige Apartment erhält. Eine separate Anfrage- und Optionsmail nur mit der Aufstellung des Preises wäre wünschenswert.

  7. The Mews kiosk only allows guests setting up a physical room key card.

    However, some hotels use a personalized access code instead of a physical room key card.

    It would be interesting if the kiosk could display this access code (e.g., Salto KS).

  8. Het is momenteel enkel mogelijk om gastprofielen te filteren op land, het zou fijn zijn als dit ook gefilterd kan worden op stad. Zo kunnen we altijd bijhouden hoeveel procent er uit eigen stad geboekt wordt.

  9. Ability to enter a nickname for the guest (preferred name) that is not part of their legal names, sio it would allow staff to address guests accordingly.

  11. Create a multiproperty booking engine where guests can find availability and prices for multiple properties in the same city / region / country by querying on stay dates. Currently a specific property needs to be selected, resulting in a tedious process (with 7 properties in 1 city for example) resulting in low conversion and churn.

  12. To enhance guest experience and returning guest recognition it is required to share guest data between properties. This includes guest historical stays, preferences and complaints for all properties and not just the local one. Staff should then be easily recognize that this guest already stayed in another property to maintain best guest service.

  13. For a bookable service for space like parking or bike, or similar a guest /adult count doesn’t make sense. It should be possible to disable the adult count field in the booking engine for that bookable service somehow.

    See https://community.mews.com/how-do-i-2/how-do-i-setup-a-booking-engine-without-guest-count-1676 for reference

  14. Currently, the bookable service mail templates are set for all guests depending on their booking status.

    For personalization of the guest journey it would help if we can sent a customizable mail to several rate groups. This way business guests can receive additional information relevant to them as well as leisure guest who book a specific rate group (hotel offer for example). It would be nice if we can choose the moment in the mail queue when the mail will be sent.

    One template would not suffice, it needs be able to be personalized for multiple rate groups. So perhaps…

  15. Upon a completed booking, it would be helpful if MEWS creates a datalayer with the personal data from the booking (name, email, phone number, and country) that can subsequently be sent to Google and Meta as part of 'Enhanced Conversion' to better optimize advertising.

  16. Bei der Raumkategorie kann ein individueller Text eingegeben werden, ursprünglich im html Format und somit auch richtig formatiert, Seit zwei Wochen wird ist es zwar möglich ohne html code die Informationen einzugeben jedoch kann man wichtige Infos nicht hervorheben und auch ansonsten keinerlei Formatierungen hinzufügen. Es wäre schön wenn Formatierungsoptionen angeboten werden.

  19. Customizable preferred check-out time. With the online check-out guests are asked what their preferred check-out time is, but this is not customizable. It makes it very unclear for guests that this does not guarantee their check-out time and we are not able to state that extra charges apply. It would make sense that hotels can adjust this according to their own policies

  20. The SMS Service Add on Subscribtion is a good Idea, but it might can be improved as following:
    1.) The way this product add-on is being priced is not a good fit for smaller hotels. Why can't there be pure pay-as-you go model, maybe with a higher individual SMS charges, but only on the acutal volume sent? I mean, the cary over that remains from the 50 € each month for us cannot ever be consumed...
    2.) Track clicks: currenty there is no way to know if the sent sms messages are actually improving online check-in rates. It would be…
