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.

  2. Would be helpful to have a feature for the group summary, that shows how many adults + childen are in the group. Now it shows only total amount of people.

    Hello from the Mews product team,

    Thank you for your suggestions and feedback. We are currently researching improvements to group functionality and have updated this request as one to be upvoted by the Mews community.

    Should you have any additional feedback on how we can improve the way you work with groups, please let us know in the comments section.

    Kind regards,
    Aldair

  3. This one is for the developers.

    We have group of between 200 and 300 reservations spread out over 10 days in september. When you load one of the reservations the other 200+ are also loaded.

    This makes every action (checkin, checkout, open bill, close bill yadayada) you need to take is very very slow.

    I suspect the list is loaded synchronously. Maybe it helps if the reservation is loaded asynchronously. I only care about this 1 reservation not about the 200+ others...

    This reservation for example is part of a large group.

    Hello Mewsers,

    Thank you for your feedback, we are currently looking into how Mews handles groups so that we can improve your group experience.

    Should you have further feedback or suggestions for group handling please do let us know. We would be very happy to reach out and organise a discussion on the topic.

    Kind regards,
    Aldair

  4. Summarize invoices with multiple guest profiles by guest profile.
    With group reservations or reservations with more than one guest profile the invoice turns out very chaotic i.e.:
    Stay 1234 (guest name 1, stay dates)
    Staypackage
    City tax
    Stay 1235 (guest name 2, stay dates)
    Staypackage
    City tax
    Stay 1236 (guest name 3, stay dates)
    Staypackage
    City tax
    Dinner (guest name 1)
    Dinner (guest name 2)
    Dinner (guest name 3)
    Minibar (guest name 2)
    Minibar (guest name 1)

    Would be great if could be ordered by guest profile i.e.:
    Stay 1234 (guest name 1, stay dates)
    Staypackage
    City tax
    Dinner
    Minibar …

    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.

  6. We would like a function where we could download a PDF confirmation letter for guests that are a part of a group block that doesn't have any links or anything in it. Just simply information about their stay: name, date of arrival/departure, room category, rate etc.

  7. Having a function that lets you split a group or move a reservation from one group to another. This would be a tremendous help if f.ex. you add a reservation to a wrong group and have to move it to another group, if you need to "pick up" reservations from one group and make a new group.
    Now you have to cancel the reservations in original group and make a new one, which can be very time consuming.

  8. When a group is arriving where the company is paying for RBT it should be possible to place these reservation all at once on the cashlist to avoid walk outs.
    This should also be possible to have everyone automatically on the cashlist (less work to take someone off then place everyone on who is not allowed to book items to their room)

  11. At the moment you are unable to see the specific group that has remaining rooms that have not been picked up, instead you see all the groups with blocks during the specified dates.
    With that you need to go into each of the groups to check which ones still have rooms that have not been picked up nor released.

  12. Allow group managers and reservation managers to add rooming list to availability blocks. Just add the Rooming List feature that is in the guest reservation under groups to the availability block.

    Hello from the Mews product team,

    Thank you for your suggestion, we are currently investigating improvements in group handling, and the topic of a group booking ID has come up with a few properties. Would you be willing to share more information on your use case so that we can better understand the problems you encounter on a daily basis?

    This request has been updated and set it as one to be upvoted by the Mews Community.

  14. Booker sends in a rooming list - this should be able to be uploaded to the block so each room is picked up and a reservation is made to the correct room type

    Also to be able to pull rooming list in a nice format with our exporting unnecessary information. Wedding are always asking for a list of names and dates of who booked in their group

  15. When creating a new Availability block for a Group, provide a checkmark toggle that allows for booking out of general availability, rather than creating day by day by space category blocks.
    - There are times we provide "rate offers" to groups without any specific room type commitment at all, ie. We'll provide a floating 20% discount on any room types we have available, up until a specific booking cut-off date. There are times we may also offer commission on the rooms that book.

    Voucher codes do not really work for us in these situations either, as they are not fenced…

  16. Groups that are currently taking inventory and are contracted but do not have reservations picked up yet, are not being counted as "Sold Rooms" nor is the contracted revenue being accounted for anywhere. The Availability and Occupancy Report shows the group rooms under Confirmed or Optional but ultimately still shows that group inventory under "Free Spaces". Would be useful to see total expected group revenue per group, and for that revenue to be accounted for in the Manager Report.

  17. It would be good if when we enter on a certain customer who has a group booking - to see bookings sorted by groups on the dashboard instead of all the rooms that guests booked for all the upcoming dates - when we have groups sorted on the dashboard then we can choose the group and enter to see all the rooms listed.

  19. Problem: booker doesn't receive confirmation/option with guest names

    solution:
    -add guest names to the reservation confirmation/option email.
    -create more specific summary export including rooms, names, reservation ID, arrival, departure

  20. To be able to assign spaces as correct as possible for a group, there should be an option for feature requests in the availability block. So when you pick up the reservation from the block, it is auto-assigned to the correct space feature. Example: all crew want to have quiet rooms, or all wedding guests should have a sea view. This will be more efficient for the front desk that doesn't have to double check and re-assign spaces, and to make sure the guests get what is ordered without the possibility of human errors.
