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. Please keep the date selection the same either when creating or editing restrictions. Every single time I make a change it defaults back to the current date, I spend half my time scrolling through the calendar to go back to the original selection I had.

  3. Angebote, bzw. Bestätigungen werden zu lange und zu unüberscichtlich, wenn z.B. eine Gruppe für 3 Tage 15 Zimmer bucht mit Frühstück. Da wird jeder Tag mit Frühstücksanteim zum jeweiligen MwStsatz aufgefürht. Viel zu lange und zu übersichtlich. Da würde es doch reichen wenn die Postion Frühstück ( unterteilt nach Speisen und Getränkeanteil ) in einer Position angezeigt würde und das dann mal 3.

  4. Dear MEWS Team,

    I would like to share a suggestion regarding the Timeline view, which has a huge yet unexpressed potential.

    While visually clean, it does not leverage one of the most powerful tools for operational efficiency: colour-coding.

    Color can instantly convey information that, otherwise, requires opening each booking or navigating multiple sections. Introducing colour indicators directly on the Timeline could transform it into a true operational dashboard, providing immediate, high-impact insights for the front office and reservations teams.

    Here are some examples of what colour-coding could highlight:
    • Payment Status (e.g., prepaid, pending, partially paid, failed)
    • Booking Source…

  5. Remove the current 1-year limit on the Reservation Report date range, allowing users to run reports across longer periods. This functionality was available in the old report and is needed to support more flexible historical and future analysis and reporting

  7. We are operating a hybrid property (long- and short-stay)
    All spaces are offered as long-stay, and some of them also as short-stay.
    Every now and then we need to move a space to be offered as short-stay, but the problem is that we cannot remove them from short-stay service once we added them there. This brings a lot of discrepancies in our daily operations and reporting.

  8. We would like to see the chargeable period for an early check-in limited to f.i. 2 hours.

    The reason for that:
    We have an early check-in fee of €15 applied.
    But recently, a guest with a booking for date x checked in via our Kiosk in the night of x - 1 to x, at 2:00pm. He was able to check in by just paying the fee of €15, meaning he had an extra night for €15.

  9. Minimum Stay Through Restrictions should be supported in Mews. Currently, minimum stay restrictions are applied as Minimum Stay on Arrival. So, a 3-night minimum stay on a Saturday night would allow someone to book for 2-nights if staying Friday & Saturday. Minimum Stay Through restrictions should be an option (especially since Mews RMS Atomize has this option, as do most channel manager marketplace integrations).

  10. You should be able to change the customer on a reservation without first having to add them as a companion. The current process creates an unnecessary and inefficient workflow.

    For example, if a booker initially makes a reservation under Joe Smith but later wants to change the guest name to Jane Doe, the hotel reservations agent must:
    1. Change the reservation to two guests
    2. Add Jane Doe as a companion
    3. Assign Jane Doe as the primary guest
    4. Remove Joe Smith from the reservation
    5. Change the reservation back to one adult

    That’s five steps just to change…

  11. Es wäre schön, wenn man die Anreise-/Abreiseliste nach Nachnamen oder Zimmernummern sortieren könnte. Die Option "Gruppieren nach" nimmt viel zu viel Platz weg.
    Es ist sehr zeitaufwändig, jeden Tag eine neue Excel-Liste zu erstellen. Das wäre mit einem Knopfdruck sehr viel effektiver.

  12. When a dropdown contains more options than can fit in the visible list, the user can scroll inside the dropdown to reach the remaining options. That works as expected.
    However, when all available options already fit inside the visible dropdown, scrolling while the dropdown is open closes the dropdown instead. This is easy to trigger accidentally, especially on a trackpad or mouse wheel.

  14. Problem

    Currently, when creating package rates using Product Rules, Revenue Managers have no intuitive way to understand how the final package price is calculated. The only reliable method is to create a test booking and review the resulting pricing, which is both time-consuming and prone to misinterpretation.

    This creates challenges when validating package setups, especially when determining whether products are included, excluded, or distributed correctly within the total package rate. Misconfigurations can easily go unnoticed until after the package is already available for booking.

    Proposed Solution

    Add a pricing preview directly within the Product Rule configuration that provides an estimated…

  15. When entering names in a group, the costs should NOT move to different invoices. It is a group, so all costs need to stay on the Paymaster. We are moving the charges so many times, it is ridiculous. When group, costs are grouped.

  19. Cutting a key after manually checking in a reservation before this reservation's scheduled arrival time retains scheduled arrival time rather than actual, which is good in case one wants to hand over the key but not give access to the room before official time (f.ex. if guest has declined to pay early check-in fee). If one wants to grant early check-in nonetheless, or a fee has been agreed, it would be good if there was a button for staff to confirm that key creation must substitute ActualStartUtc for ScheduledStartUtc

  20. It was previously possible to see the payment status when clicking on the 'Details' tab while checking the reservations report. It would save time as it would not be necessary to open the reservation via 'Manage' which then defaults to the beginning of the report.
