Automatic Wait List Feature
The requested feature is that guests can register on a wait list on fully booked dates with automatic email notifications for when rooms are again available on the desired date(s).
This would remove any need for manual labor from the hotel side to handle wait lists.
Example:
- Guest tries to book a room Aug 1st - Aug 2nd
- Hotel is fully booked
- Guest opts in to our guest list by entering their email address
- Hotel opens up for bookings on Aug 1st
- Guest automatically receives email saying that the date(s) they searched for now have…36 votesReview of Mews Search starting and in exploration phase

Possibility to turn off automated e-mails for individual guests
We are expiring very unsatisfied guests who stays with us every week and is 'getting spammed with e-mails' both before and after each of their stay. We need to option to turn the automated e-mails off in the guest profile.
These e-mails should still be sent to all new guests whereas returning guests seem to get VERY annoyed by receiving the same e-mails weekly in connection with their stays.
Right now our only option is to completely remove their e-mail address from Mews which creates tons of issues with multiple guest profiles for the same guest, issues with sending confirmations…

Airbnb, Expedia & Booking.com Chat Integration
Integrate with Airbnb, Expedia and Booking.com directly including Chat API so that we can have a universal chat experience for our guests, currently we are having to use a clunky external system that provides a unified inbox.
But it would be SOOOO much better if this was integrated directly into MEWS.

Logo in Distributor to send to homepage
Property logo in the Distributor should take visitor to the property homepage.
32 votesHi Mewsers,
If you wish to make your logo in the booking engine clickable, we recommend using the solution called “Distributor widget” which is basically a booking engine embedded in your web page.
With that, you have full control over the header of the page. Here is the documentation: https://app.gitbook.com/@mews-systems/s/distributor-guide/distributor-widget
Please have a look at the website of our client for a reference (just navigate to the booking engine). https://staygenerator.com/
Have a great day,

Option to change background image in Distributor (Multi Property )
We have 2 beach resorts on the same beach and we combine them into one distributor booking engine.
The background image on the first page (select date) is of some random city. It looks ridiculous and is definitely killing conversion.
I have been told we cannot change this.
Surely a plain white background would be preferable to this generic cityscape which will suit probably one in 20 propertys or less.
Really annoyed about this as when we started using this combined booking engine for 2 property's this picture was not there its just been added.
it looks terrible as we…31 votesHello from the Mews product team. Thank you for your suggestion, we have updated your request and set it as one to be upvoted by the Mews Community. Remember you can share a link to your request so that your colleagues can also upvote your suggestion. -

Display Settlement Rules + Cancellation Policies on Booking Engine
Currently - settlement + cancellation policies are not visible to the guest in the booking engine. So for each rate code - we have to manually insert text to describe this in multiple languages.
Most other Booking Engines display these rules by default during the booking-process online. Mews should be able to auto-generate this text - in multiple languages.The proposed solution would remove potential mismatch/errors between text & rules , save time for the user, and create a more sellable text to display rather than focusing a lot of the text to rules regarding the reservation.

External name space types
When we use the space types in combination with the booking engine, the name of the space type is displayed very prominently in the booking proces.
When you book a house, boat, bicycle or special accommodation instead of a room, the booking engine shows it as e.g. a site.
We would like to see this at least as an external name that you can change to whatever you want.26 votesHello from the Mews product team.

Solution to display "Accessible" room to respect ADA in US
A solution to display room respecting "ADA" (American with Disabilitites Act") nicely on Booking Engine. Currently, you need to create a new room space for each ADA room. It complicates greatly the usability as user see many room type on Booking Engine. You can see a solution on freehandhotels.com booking engine with a tick box "Accessible"

Phone number recogniztion when booking
When guests are filling out mandatory fields in the booking engine, such as their phone number, they can fill out a number that does not exist and the booking engine will accept this as a phone number (e.g. just the number "0").
It would be helpful if the booking engine would recognize phone numbers as a valid phone number, so we have all contact details we may need from the guest after they make the booking.

multiple guest entry
when booking multiple rooms, it should become possible to add ALL names for the rooms, especially when different room types are combined.
we have several corporate clients for whom we provide a seperate booking engine, and they sometimes book multiple rooms at once but do wish to specify the name per room booked.

Confirmation letters
When sending a confirmation to a booker, the name of the guest does not appear on the confirmation letter but only the reservation number. This does not look professional at all and we receive many complaints by our guests. They feel like they are a number and not a guest.
