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. 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…

  2. 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.

  3. We’d like you to review the check-in process for groups.

    • When we send the check-in online e-mail, only the owner receives the e-mail. This is not smooth for large groups. The solution might be to have a link or be able to send the online check-in e-mail to multiple addresses at the same time.

    • When we choose to upload a file, we find these problems:

      • If the customer is Spanish, there is no field to add the second last name or the ID support number
      • There is no field to add addresses

    So there is no valid process to finish…

  4. When someone books more than one room online (no matter form which channel) it would be great if mews can merge the reservations together as a group to have a more clear overview that it is several rooms booked.

  5. Have the option to link a guest, or add a line item in the profile, when the stay is with a group. We don't necessarily see these guests after their group stay and would allow us to keep our database tracked and either target these guests for conversion, or stop tracking in the database

    PS, we are ex-Hotello, and this feature was an easy sell for us to use before

  6. When working on group bookings, allow the on-screen reservations on the right-hand side to be sorted by room number or guest name and not only by display categories. Same with the exported Excel template for groups (which has no actual logic at the moment from one group to the enxt)

  7. We work with a high number of AVAILABILITY BLOCKS (corporate Groups, Weddings, Event, etc.)

    Each AVAILABILITY BLOCKS is then booked through a SELFBOOKING ENGINE by the guests.

    We have a high number of CUSTOMIZED PRODUCTS for each EVENT, to be selfbooked by the guests of a certain AVAILABILITY BLOCK.

    We need a simple DROPDOWN to add Custom Bookable Products to each AVAILABILITY BLOCK and/or each SELFBOOKING ENGINE.

    We assume this is a rather undercomplex feature programming-wise.

    Thank you very much!

  8. Problem
    It is currently not possible to add tasks to group or block reservations. In addition, tasks in general are not searchable, which makes it very difficult to track what has been done or what is still pending — especially for group bookings.

    Operational impact
    For group bookings, we need to manage important milestones such as:

    Name list deadlines

    Booking cut-off dates

    Client follow-ups

    Today, these tasks cannot be linked to the block itself, and since tasks are not searchable, it is almost impossible to get an overview of tasks related to a specific group or block. This leads to…

  9. Issue Description

    In group reservations, the rooming list template does not indicate which rooms include children or infants. All rooms appear identical in the Excel file, even when only some rooms are booked as adults + children.

    For large groups (100–400 rooms), this makes it very difficult to know where to enter children data without manual cross-checks.

    Request

    Please add a pre-filled column in the rooming list showing the age category / classification (e.g. Adult, Child, Infant) per room or per guest.
    This would allow hotels to clearly identify rooms with minors and correctly complete the rooming list.

  12. We require a simplified, customizable Group Rooming List export template that is decoupled from the room assignment process. The list must be user-friendly, focus only on essential data, and utilize unambiguous visual grouping to indicate room sharing.

    The current workflow is highly inefficient due to two main issues:

    Workflow Constraint: It is currently mandatory to manually "pick up" or assign rooms to the group booking before the rooming list can be exported. This is cumbersome and risky, as staff must cancel/correct numerous room assignments if the list data (guest count or room allocation) turns out to be incorrect upon review.

  13. We would like more granular control over billing automation.
    Currently, the system allows certain items to be moved automatically to other profiles or bills, which is helpful, but not sufficient for our operational needs.

    We are requesting the ability to:

    Select specific nights of a reservation and automatically route those charges to a different profile or bill.

    Select specific items (e.g., certain rate components or extras) to be billed to a separate profile or folio.

    This workflow exists in systems like Opera and OneQ (commonly used in Hilton hotels), where items can be assigned as:

    PM (Paymaster) – charges routed…

  14. Bonjour, j'ai créé un groupe de 10 chambres, mais je veux ajouter une chambre a ce groupe, une personne s'est ajouter à la dernière minute. J'ai essayé de plusieurs façon mais rien n'y fait. Les groupes ne sont jamais fixes il peut y avoir des chambres en moins ou en plus.

  15. It would be great to have a way to visually identify which members belong to the same group within the timeline and check-in screen.

    For example, groups could be represented through color coding, icons, or visual markers. This would make it immediately clear at a glance who belongs together, without having to check details or hover over tooltips.

    Possible approaches could include:

    Assigning a unique color to each group (e.g. pastel backgrounds or small colored indicators).

    Adding group icons or symbols next to each member’s name.

    Displaying group borders or headers to clearly separate teams or related entries.

    This improvement…

  16. It should be possible to edit the rate of an existing availability block. There are multiple reasons as to why a rate needs to be changed and deleting and remaking the whole block slows down work a lot.

  17. It would be great to be able to export the group allotment chart to show clients their group block pick-up. Copy and pasting the data from the Dashboard does not paste properly in Excel, Numbers, or any other app (Pages, Outlook, etc)

  18. It would be nice to be able to link task directly to the allotment block. It would be easier to locate the block already before any rooms have been picked up. We have several users handling the blocks and making adjustments to the room account, so this would help a lot.

  19. Currently when an availability block is created, you can only block a space category overall. What would be beneficial to see an accurate ADR forecast/OTB for the future, is to be able to block rooms based on single or double occupancy.

    For example, we block 8 rooms Standard as Single Occ. and 2 rooms Standard as Double Occ. with 2 different rates, so the ADR is calculated correctly. Currently it is only based on one rate and then adjusts once picked up based on occupancy adjustments, but for forecasting this is no use.
