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 billing. 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. I would be helpful, if the housekeeping could see stay products which could for example be a fruit basket or pralines in the room.
    We have some rates for Specials that require a certain preparation from the housekeeping. Therefore it would be helpful, if the houseekeeping team could see the products and rates in their app.

  2. think there is an issue with the system as normally you are able to see the drop down window. now it seems to be hidden behind the availability window underneath. please look into this urgently as it creates more work with having to add this after the booking has been made.
    PS - even on the next screen where there is no other window underneath are you able to see the bookers names!
    PS2 - NOWHERE are you able to see the bookers names, not even in the reservation itself - madness!!!

    Hi Simone,

    Thank you for sharing your feedback with us.

    We are currently looking into this issue, and would like to know a few more details, would you be able to ket us know if you are currently using Mews on Mobile or desktop as well as the browser you are using?

    It is currently possible to view booker names on the reservation module, the booker name appears on the right hand side of the reservation module under the "Status" section.

    Kind regards,

    Aldair

  3. We have rooms that need more time to be cleaned, which is why we have to block them for the night after the guests check out. It would be great if the system could do that automatically as soon as those rooms have been booked. As for now, we need to block the rooms manually everytime it is booked...

  4. When I enter a block pattern (example: 4-7-5-5-3) the system makes me pick the rooms up as if I have 4 rooms staying for one night, then 7 rooms staying for one night, then 5 rooms staying for 2 nights etc. instead of staggered arrivals with different lengths of stay like blocks typically are. Can that be changed?

    Hello from the Mews product team,

    Thank you for your suggestion. Availability blocks in Mews allow for availability to be adjusted per space category per day as you have described above. When availability is adjusted, a set number of spaces are removed from public availability per day. 

    It is possible to support staggered arrival dates within an availability block, however the arrival dates are limited within the contractual constraints agreed upon i.e the number of spaces made available per day. 

    Based on your example above, it appears that you are referring to run of house reservations. Is that the case?

    I would be very happy to organise a call with you to discuss your use case further. If you would be interested in sharing more via back with us via a call please let us know by responding to this email.

    Kind regards,

    Aldair

    Product Manager, Mews

  5. It would be great if we can set a relative adjustment for a period and not set for the complete system. Meaning rates of 2022 and 2023 are different, meaning a different relative adjustment. However, I now have to adjust it manually in the booking as this feature is not there.

  6. In den Benachrichtigungen, wäre es super hilfreich, wenn nicht nur "neue Bestellung erzeugt" stehen würde, sondern zB. "Neue Distributor Buchung Anreise heute", oder "Neue Booking.com Buchung Anreise 02.05.22"

    Zusätzlich wäre auch ein Logo anstatt des grauen Kreises sinnvoll.

  7. It would be helpfull to see in the reservation summery how many double use and single users are in the booking. Especially in group bookings, you need to count every time when the client adjust the number and forwards the namelist.

    Hello all,

    This status update is part of our ongoing work to simplify and streamline how our UserVoice feedback forum operates.

  8. I understand there is a function in MEWS to automate the deposits for new reservations. Is there a way to exclude restricted rates from this automated process?

    The rates we need to exclude are:
    -OTAs (Expedia, booking.com, airbnb)
    -AutoCamp Summit Club
    -AutoCamp Explorer Club
    -Any GRP rate

  9. There are often double charges (merchant is selected, when payment has already been done with terminal). I would therefor like to see a WARNING/NOTIFICATION when you select merchant (e.g. are you sure you would like to charge the creditcard by Merchant / Are you sure that guest has not yet paid with terminal). If you select payment by card, you are automatically on the merchant tab, can it not be default terminal tab ? This to avoid double payments and chargeback issues. Thanks !

    Hello Femke,

    Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. Using the optimise space allocation button should not hide overbookings on the timeline. Would you be able to share and example of this with me so that we can investigate this case?

    Kind regards,

    Aldair

  11. we have several rates with the same name as we use them for different lengths of stay (i.e. corporate rate). we do not wish to display the minimum stay restrictions in the rate name itself.
    however, when creating a new rate which is linked to the base rate (i.e. you get 28% discount for stays of 7 nights), it only displays the full name. this is really annoying as you don't always know which one to pick.
    so it would be much more beneficial if you could pick the base rate on the short name (they are all individual like…

  12. When adding a Stay Product in the Items Tab in a Reservation the Product is automatically posted to the Unpaid / Deposit Bill. In the case of a Company or Travel Agent Bill, we need to have the ability to add these items into the correct Bill. Currently, the user needs to move the items when added to the correct Bill. In the case of an Additional Product posting, this can be added in the Billing Screen on the correct Bill. However, when adding Stay Product, there is no choice.

    If the company or travel agent has routing already configured,…

    Hello Mewsers,


    We are very happy to inform you that this initiative is on the roadmap for the first half of 2026.


    We are excited to be introducing the ability to upload rooming lists in PDF format powered by AI.

  14. In the group overview, it would be very helpful if not only the rooms could be folded in, but also the different arrival days. There are definitely groups with staggered dates.

  15. department: customer support
    We would like to be able to turn off the sound when a notification comes in.
    when we are talking to guests, it is very annoying when we hear a 'ping' in our ear all the time.
    if it is also possible to turn off the notifications completely, that would be great.

  16. i have set up new products with a zero rate as we need to be able to manual add the correct one each time. however, when coming to posting the product, it won't let us change the amount from zero.
    is this an error on the system?
    previously set products like this are still able to be manually have the amount changed

  17. Currently to check in a guest, You have to navigate too many screens between payment, guest info, and check in. Instead when you click check in, MEWS should automatically prompt the guest info then payment instead of having to navigate multiple tabs.

  18. Currently daily rate is not amendable once the bookings are created, with a status OPTION (not confirmed). We used to have it but not anymore.
    Also, we can never change room allocation if the booking is an option.
