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.

  3. The Excel rooming list can now only be uploaded once and not more. When trying another upload, it is not possible. We often have group rooming lists who change a lot and it would be easy if we can "upload" new rooming lists and override the old ones by just one click (also owner/guest function) and all other information like phone number, e-mail address, country, etc.

  4. Oft buchen Firmen nach Kalenderwoche. Es wäre leichter das Datum zu finden, was gewünscht ist, wenn auch die Kalenderwochen angezeigt werden würden in der Zeitleiste.

  5. Bulk select multiple reservations in a group and move them altogether in one movement from one series of spaces to another. At this stage, we have to individually select each reservation to change the space, which can take time for large groups.

  6. Guest BILL is charged to designated payment type. We would like that at the time of checkout the detailed version of the guest BILL is then automatically sent to the guests email on file. Ideal for business travelers who need detailed invoices for expense report purposes.

  7. When creating a new profile to associate with a bill or to issue the bill on the company during check out it takes very long for a new company profile to be available for selection as company owner or associated profile. Sometimes it takes several minutes for the company profile to become available in the input fields!!!
    This is unacceptable for most guests and unnecessarily prolongs and delays the checkout process.

  8. Currently company profiles are added to guest profiles automatically. This should be optional via a tick box. In our case guest' are not always booking via the same company (rate).

  9. 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…

  10. Hi,
    Would it be possible to have an option that we can select to add the same address/city/postal code to all profile of the same reservation?
    In Spain, we need to fill in a lot of information and the adress/city/postal code is something mandatory for us and when we have big groups it takes forever to add that info individually.

    Thank you

  11. Hello everyone,

    We would like to suggest a few improvements to the timeline in Mews that could significantly enhance usability:

    Better color customization
    The current grey shades are very similar and hard to distinguish. More contrast or customizable colors would improve readability.

    OTA/source icons on reservations
    Adding icons (Booking.com, Expedia, Direct, etc.) would make it much easier to instantly identify the booking source.

    Guest count visible on timeline
    Showing the number of guests directly on each reservation would greatly help with quick planning and overview.

    Payment status indicator
    An icon to show whether a reservation is paid or still pending…

  12. Yes, billing automation having just gotten smarter was a windfall for our operation. As a small property with few Staff members, all of us hold many roles on a daily basis. We have no accounting or finance department, no IT department, to name just a few. When billing automation rolled out, automatically sorting charges into bills by stay dates and whether they are owned by an OTA or a Guest erased many of the accidental billing issues we had to correct when a Guest was incorrectly charged for a future stay or for an OTA-paid stay, billing the Guest’s credit…

  13. When a user re-issues a bill or invoice, a reason code is requested. It could be useful to have a list of standard reason codes (wrong payment, wrong price, wrong profile etc) and that the reason codes were accessible through the API. Then it can be used to pinpoint the reason for a re-issue. From that we can pinpoint training, information or setup to make sure we avoid too many credits.

  14. It would improve efficiency if we could create a batch of bookings for the same or different company, all at once, by just choosing the dates we need, and then just repeating that same pattern of rooms needed for all bookings. To be able to assign an individual customer to each would be preferable, like being able to create a new customer for each different date, in a faster way.

    Creating group bookings one by one is very tedious and takes a long time, and for properties that hold various groups a day or a week, this would definitely be…

  15. Summary of the Issue

    During check-out, we frequently face the problem that POS receipts (e.g. from MEWS POS or other integrations) cannot be properly split across multiple rooms or guest invoices.
    This is because identical POS items are automatically merged into a single billing item (e.g. multiple grape juices combined into one position).

    Once merged, this item cannot be split afterwards and can therefore only be settled on one invoice.
    The only workaround is to manually calculate and allocate amounts across different payment methods, which is time-consuming and error-prone.

    In contrast, bookable services (e.g. breakfast) are handled as individual, divisible…

  16. We would like to suggest an important improvement regarding group reporting and forecast accuracy.

    Currently, Mews only considers picked-up (confirmed) reservations within groups when calculating revenue and ADR. However, blocked rooms that are not yet picked up are completely excluded from revenue and ADR calculations, even though they are included in occupancy.

    This creates a significant discrepancy in forecasting and reporting.

    Example:
    A group is booked for a future date with 20 rooms blocked at an ADR of $200
    No rooms are picked up yet
    One individual reservation exists at an ADR of $250

    In this scenario:
    Occupancy correctly reflects…

  17. Bonjour,
    Il serait pratique d'avoir des colonnes de plus avec le nombre de chambres bloquées et réservées quand on sort une liste des blocs (groupes). Cela permettrait d'avoir l'information rapidement. Nous n'aurions plus besoin de consulter individuellement chaque bloc, chaque groupe pour obtenir cette information. Merci.

  18. Be able to quickly and easily export all invoices (in PDF format) for a specific period (day, week, month) with a single click.
    Currently, you have to click on each invoice, print it, and save it as a PDF.
    An individual PDF export for the desired period would make this task much easier.

  19. Hi Mews team!

    We would like to request a minor adjustment to the color coding on our reservation timeline to improve our daily workflow and reduce manual errors.

    The Issue:
    Currently, both "Check-out Today" and "Check-in Today" use a very similar shade of blue. When the booking department and reception team is assisting guests with stay extensions or late check-out requests, it is difficult to distinguish between a guest who is due to depart today and the guest who is to arrive when looking at the same room to checkin and out of. This occasionally leads to mistakes when selecting…

  20. It would be great if it was possible to view the product checklist in the Mews mobile app.
    Then we do not have to print the list (save the planet) and the list is always updated
