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. Each "service type" offered to a guest needs to be associated with a "space type". Current "space types" are limited to physical spaces only.

    Some services, such as "Experiences", could use additional "non-tangible space types". Clients would have the flexibility and freedom to offer tours, trips, etc. which could also be covered under the Spacetime project as they often times use the same logic as the physical space types = inventory, rate and bookable timeframe.

    Adding non-physical space types to the selection of "space types" would very likely increase usability of Spacetime.

  2. Should be able to add a product to a room that will increase/decrease room sales. For example, a guest goes like a no show but actually turns up so you create another booking and post as either accommodation supplement or a double room that you may have created, this will add the revenue but wont add as a room sale.
    A day use room will also not count as a room sale.

  3. it would be really practical if we were able to set pricing/rates for the whole year instead of having to select a period of only a few weeks. Would save a lot of time.
    Right now mews only accepts the pricing for the initially selected period, regardless of the dates chosen in the smaller pricing tab.

  4. Dear Mews Team,

    Could you create a new Mobile Application where it will be possible to directly use Mews website instead of using an internet browser (like Google Chrome, Safari,...) on iPhone / iPad ?

    At the moment the interface is not so user friendly and it could really save us time by creating a dedicated application like the MewsCommander app.

    Thanks in advance!

  5. 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

  6. 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...

  7. When you have regular or returing guests it is very unconvenient and unwelcoming that the automatic settlement failure emails are automattically send to the guest, even if the card is on file. Guests do not want to endlesy update theire details again and again and again as they are expecting that after a couple of stays everything is fine for them.

    Solution: allow the Mews Merchant to charge the card linked to the guest and not linked to the reservation.

  9. Add a percentage of discount directly in the voucher, to allow us to apply a private discount on any public rate with a voucher code instead of create a new rate code.

  11. The commander allows to post items with prices on the guest bills however it does not allow to add variable products. For us this would be a great feature as the PMS does not have a connection to the POS and the bar team could immediately add to guest rooms their bills.

  12. 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.

    Hello all,

    This status update is part of our ongoing work to simplify and streamline how our UserVoice feedback forum operates. We are reducing the number of statuses to two (Idea to Upvote + Released) to help manage expectations about where each idea stands and to minimize the number of status updates required from our product teams. Our product team reviews everything you share, and we might reach out for more info if we need it. 

    Thanks for your patience as we work to bring your ideas to life! You can learn more about the changes coming to UserVoice from this post in the Mews Community.

  14. While going through the MEWS University it would be EXTREMELY beneficial to allow us to get involved and interact by moving our mouse pad etc.. rather than just watching and listening. Maybe a more personal training experience where the persons voice asks us to move our mouse pads over a certain area and select options etc..

  15. when you want to implement a namelist for a certain date. However that booking is a group booking with multiple dates. And even if you select only 1 date, all bookings will appear in the downloaded name list without order. Meaning that all dates are mixed up and then you also need to add 50+ names. It takes very long and it would be better if you can implement it per booking date.

    Same goes for confirmed and optional bookings. If you download the namelist both bookings are implemented in the namelist, You prefer only the ones selected - which…

  16. Currently, it's unfortunately not possible to set a minimum price for a space / room category.

    However, this would be very helpful if you have a set of rates that derive its price from another rate (called "base rate" in Mews).

    Let's look at the following example: To create better long-stay rates, I created 16 rates. For every two days a guest stays longer, the guest will receive a (small) discount for the whole stay.

    So, the rate is always derived from another (base) rate. I would like to be able to set a minimum price on a space category…

  17. Add a multiple select option for Space Categories inside rate set-up.

    I don't necessarily want all space categories sold on every rate that is set-up. It would be ideal if I could select the applicable space category inside the rate rather than having to "always" apply multiple restriction across many rates and room types, this has potential of creating hundreds of restrictions (10 rates/10 spaces).

    Thanks for the consideration.

  18. it would save a lot of time if the yellow out of order blocks could be split instead of us having to shorten them and create a new one for the other half when we only need to open up a room for a certain date.

  19. As we expand the capabilities of Space-Time on a frequent basis the use cases for it's usage grow. The current quota (or limit) of occupants that one can cap a Resource (Space) at is 100. This is not sufficient especially for properties offering Meeting and Events packages or using a Space for an event. There should be the capability to increase this further 100 occupants.
