  3. Add neutral gender in online check-in

    Is there a possibility to modify the online check in somehow? We got a feedback from one guest that it would be nice to have a possibility to choose gender neutral as a sex and not only male and female. Or can we get the sex question off somehow? Thanks for the help!

  4. Introduce a configuration whether to request Credit card details during online check-in

    Guest are currently required to insert payment card during online check-in. This sometimes causes problems with double-charges in case the guest's reservation is prepaid by agency and staff latter on accidentally charges the guest card for stay. It also raises questions and mistrust of guests for online check-in and prevents them from finishing it.

    Another case:

    If "mandatory credit card" rules could be based on ratecode or rate category.
    When we have a guest that is staying complimentary/using a gift voucher or company is paying, that guest is currently still required to enter their creditcard details as part of the…

  6. Guest Portal: Visual customization

  7. An optional booking to be confirmed only with a credit card

    At the moment when an optional reservation is made for a guest manually, the guest will receive an email from MEWS and they can just click on Confirm or Cancel.

    When they Click on Confirm the optional reservation is immediately confirmed in MEWS but no credit card details are requested to guarantee the reservation.

    We want the system to only give the guest the possibility to Confirm the reservation once they have inserted their credit card details first.

    Thank you !

  8. Stop online check in for under aged guests

    We're facing difficulties in some properties where under aged guests are checking in online. There should be a way to stop those online check in. At the moment they could just pick up the key on the operator kiosk and go to the room. Therefore we would accommodate them, without knowing they are under the allowed age, which is against the law. We do have the responsibility to control the age of the guest. This already happened and cause complains and frustrations on hotel and guest side.

  9. Online Check out available for all reservations

    Hi Mews Team,

    the online check out function is yet not available for all reservations. For example it is not possible to use the check out online for company reservations. We need this function available for all reservations.

    1. Enable online checkout for all reservations
    2. Guest need to change their billing adress during online check out. This is absolutely essential the prevent going customers to front office to change their company adress.
    3. The process must be easy and quick

    Thanks
    Linus

  11. Selecting Add on Product Early Check-in or Late Checkout Changes the Arrival or Departure Time

    When selecting an early check-in or late check-out product, it would be good if the system could change either the arrival time or departure time to make the product selected. This would save time and notify us when the guest is arriving earlier rather that search to see who purchased the early arrival product.

  13. Attach passport image at online check-in

    Allow the guest to attach a copy of the passport at online check-in.

    This feature would allow the guest to have a quicker check-in because the passport would be validated in advance by reception.

  17. Booker to preview reservations in Guest Portal

    It is strange that "Bookers" are not able to perform 'Confirm' or 'Cancel' actions on an Optional booking as a Booker has generally been tasked with the full flow of creating / updating reservations

  18. Staff is aware whether the chat message got resolved

    Is it possible to have some kind of "no reply needed" button for the messages box (guest chat). Sometimes there are cases that the guest has sent the message and then called for us so there is no need to reply for the message anymore. It would be great to have the button to mark for the other employees that this case has been closed.

    If I log in to the MEWS systems I immediately see that there are new messages arrived. Somehow the messages sometimes seems to be unread even tough someone else (my colleague) has already replied with…

  19. Ask for review within guest journey

    It would be great if guests would receive an automatic e-mail after departure to review their stay and if we could choose to show these reviews to other guests in the distributor when choosing/booking a room.

    Alternatively, guest can be asked to provide review during online check-out as well.

  20. Let guest fill in all details while creating the reservation so the online check-in is not needed anymore

    It would make more sense if guests could fill in all the details that are needed in the registration form during the process of creating their booking on the website, instead of by online check-in form 48 hours before check-in. This way, you will have 100% online check-in guaranteed for direct bookings.

    I am also curious about your perspective on how that could impact the conversion? If we make the booking process more complex by asking for more information, isn't that a risk that more guests would abandon before completing the purchase?
