Property Operations & PMS

Property Operations and PMS: this is the forum for posting your ideas and comments on all aspects of hotel operations, from reservations to events to metrics and reports. You'll find a category here for each of the major topics in property management, and if you can't find the right category, please search or post to the Other category. Where we can, we'll move ideas around to group them as intuitively as possible for the product managers working on the PMS.

Please keep in mind that there is a separate forum for topics specific to the operations of hotel chains and groups. Go to the Multi-property management forum for anything about portfolio management or rate, product, package and restriction functionality across multiple properties.

  1. Recent on-screen message:

    "Mews Analytics will be retired in early 2026. Explore the new Mews BI and share your feedback to help us get it ready for you."

    Thank you for the information about the planned retirement of Mews Analytics in early 2026 and for the opportunity to explore the new Mews BI and provide feedback.

    For us, it is essential that all currently used Manager Analytics reports are fully mirrored in the BI tool, ideally as curated dashboards. At the moment, however, several key reports are missing, in particular “DAILY”, “Dashboard YoY Comparison”, and “PickUp Analytics – PickUp per…

  2. Currently, the cancellation tag in the MEWS booking engine is not flexible enough.

    The logic is fixed on the system side:

    Cancellation on the day of arrival = automatically 2:00 p.m. or defined check-in time.

    Cancellation X days before arrival = automatically 12:00 a.m.

    Individual cancellation times cannot be displayed. Rates such as “cancellable until 6:00 p.m. on the day of arrival” or “14 days before arrival until 2:00 p.m.” cannot be displayed correctly.

    A manual adjustment of the time per rate in the cancellation tag would be necessary in order to display the cancellation conditions correctly and transparently.

  3. Splitting a reservation to allow a room change should NOT create a new reservation. It is not operationally efficient and makes no logical sense. Creating a new reservation leads to several issues:

    If the invoice is already closed, it generates a credit note.

    If the invoice is still open, it splits it into two invoices.

    When analyzing data for important decision-making, it distorts the results because you end up with a new reservation that is not real. It alters metrics such as booking lead time, pickup, and more.

    I strongly believe this is an issue that MEWS should address

  4. Hi Team,

    Can we please implement a log for user management actions?
    Right now, there is no tracking in place to see who created, deleted, or modified a user. Adding this log will help us monitor changes, ensure accountability, and maintain accurate records.

    Thank you.

  5. Currently, Mews does not allow users to transfer space categories to different bookable services; instead, users have to be manually recreated in the new service. It would be beneficial and useful if we could create a transfer process (Rates, Products included)

    1. Operational Efficiency

    • Eliminates the need for manual recreation of space categories, rates, and products, saving significant time for property managers.
    • Reduces human error during manual setup, ensuring consistency across services.

    2. Scalability and Flexibility

    • Makes it easier for hotels to reorganize or expand services (e.g., moving rooms from “Accommodation” to “Event Spaces”) without disrupting existing configurations.
    • Supports multi-service…

  6. I’m missing a proper script for check-in at the reception, which would make the process more structured and consistent, while ensuring that important steps are not overlooked.

    I imagine a button such as “Auto Check-In”, which would clearly guide the staff through the following steps:

    Settle or verify the guest folio if not already done

    Check and acknowledge the guest’s loyalty membership status, or invite them to join the program

    Offer upselling or room upgrades

    Generate the key

    Confirm check-in completion

    As I see it, this would ensure that all critical steps are followed and that the process is handled…

  7. The export of the cashier report is only available as a pdf-file. Therefore we are not able to send an excel file to our bookkeeping department or to our trustee in order to be able to check incorrect cash balances

  8. We see the need for being able to set accounting categories as inactive. As for today, they must be marked as "do not use" or similar to avoid linking them to products etc. This causes issues for the ERP systems.

    We can't delete these categories entirely because they may be linked to past transactions and need to be kept for auditing and historical purposes.

  9. It would be helpful to have a view-only access to the rates and rategroups in the settings so that employees, who are not admins in Mews, can see the conditions and policies of all rates.

    Alternatively, it would be a big help to be able to see the rate description on the reservation when hovering over the rate with the mouse. Right now, if you are not an admin in Mews, you are not able to find or see the rate descriptions of for example OTA bookings, which is impacting our daily operations. This add on would be a great…

  10. The "customer insights" data Mews gathers at the customer profile level should be reported in one place so clients can make use of the stats to create promotions or programs to incentivize their guests.

    Stay Frequency Analysis: Number of stays per customer within a selected period.
    Revenue Contribution: Total spend per customer (room + POS).
    Visit Patterns: Average length of stay, seasonal trends.
    Engagement Metrics: Use of amenities, special requests, or participation in promotions.

  11. Have the possibility to create a copy of an existing block reservation and just change the dates, booker, room types, price, room amount if needed. If the same company has a series of blocks we can just make a copy of the first block and change the details

  12. It would be nice to be able to quickly switch the context (bookable service) from the timeline view. Often we need to quickly look up something from the timeline in another service (parking or conference room). Currently it is necessary to go to the dashboard, switch to the other service, and then access the timeline again.

  15. We currently have the ability to auto close bills at checkout. Can we please have the ability to auto close bills during the guest confirmation process, as long as the balance is $0? We use Enzo connect for the guest journey and this feature would allow their systems to work properly.

  16. We would really appreciate having the option for parking to be automatically marked as “checked-in” once the guest checks into their room and also automatically adding the parking booked on the bill to the timeline of Parking Service.

    Currently, having to switch between services to manually check in the parking is inconvenient and time-consuming, especially during busy check-in times. Automating this step would greatly improve front desk efficiency.

    Additionally, it would be very helpful to have a “parking” icon displayed in the guest profile, so we can quickly see who has a parking spot.

    It would also be useful to…

  18. We’d like to ask you to include the number of beds or guests in the Check-out report.

    We are a hostel, and when the reservation is for a private room, the system counts it as one departure. If we have a Private room - 8 beds, the system counts it as just one bed in the checkout report.

    That is a problem for example when we need to know in advance how many beds need to be cleaned to order next week's clean bed linen. If we have 20 single beds, one Private room - 8 beds, one Private room…

  20. We are struggling with late check in after the front desk staff has gone home.

    for example, a person books 21:00 arrives 23:00 but the front desk went home 20:00.

    The guest got assigned to a dirty room and the kiosk lets the person check in.
    Would like MEWS to assign the guest to inspected rooms first. And stop the guest to check in to a dirty room.
