Be able to change the customer without have it add them as an additional guest first
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 adultThat’s five steps just to change…

Button to update check-in time to ActualStartUtc
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

Show Payment Status when you click on the 'Details' tab
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.

Automatic Reservation Notes Based on Travel Agency or Company
We would like Mews to support predefined notes at the travel agency and company level. These notes would be automatically added to reservations linked to the corresponding agency or company.
While company mappings and automated billing rules are already available, automatic reservation notes would provide clear operational instructions to front desk teams, helping them quickly identify specific procedures and invoicing requirements for each booking.

KIOSK
It would be great if Mews Kiosk allowed guests to complete a pre-check-in, so hotels could collect all the required guest information even if the room is not yet ready.
This would allow the reception team to complete the pre-check-in process in advance, and then simply hand over the room keys once the room has been cleaned and is ready for occupancy.

Preview on Reservation Modifications
One important area for future improvement is the reservation amendment process. Currently, when modifying an existing reservation, such as changing dates, room type, or number of guests, there is no option to preview the updated rate or any supplemental charges before saving the changes. Staff must first apply the amendment in order to view the new pricing and communicate it to the guest. This creates operational challenges, as there is no reliable way to revert the reservation back to its original details and rates if the guest declines the updated pricing. For example, MEWS currently allows additional nights to be…

Request Arrival Time
The reservation form needs a prompt to allow the guest to indicate their desired arrival time. As a small property, managing our staff is very important. If a guest isn't arriving until 11pm, we need to know that ahead of time. There should be a mechanism displaying the default arrival time and allowing the guest the option to adjust it. Having a guest arrive at 3pm versus 9pm makes a big difference for staffing and housekeeping.

Permit Restriction Names
My restrictions list is very long- different rooms have different restrictions and I have to create a restriction for every single holiday when I want a different nightly booking minimum (e.g. 2 nights or 3 nights). When looking at the long list, it would be A LOT faster for me to know why I created a specific restriction if you would allow me to name it myself. For example, my restriction for 5/22-5/25 that requires a 3 night stay, I could name "Memorial Day" instead of having to figure out from the dates why I created that specific restriction.

Verfügbarkeit
Wenn man über das Plus Zeichen eine neue Reservierung eingeben möchte, dann sieht man unten alle Kategorien und alle Raten.
Wenn ich nun die Kategorien nach unten scrollen muss, um zB die Verfügbarkeit der Kategorie 9 zu sehen, dann sehe ich zwar die Raten, aber die Namen der Raten nicht mehr. Ich muss mir also merken, welche Rate an erster Stelle steht?Ich wünsche mir, dass der Balken der Ratennamen mit nach unten fährt.

Timeline: Introducing Colour-Coding for Key Booking Insights
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…6 votes -
Cancel bookable service together with room reservation
Besides the stay service we work with parking and bicycles. For example if the guests books a room including car park, the parking spot will be added as a "parking" service and gets assigned a unique reservation number.
The problem that occurs now is that the room and parking are not linked together; meaning that when the room gets cancelled or amended, the parking spot will stay as it is and will need to be cancelled or amended manually.
We are looking for a way to link the two types of spaces together.

Notifications panel improvements
Hi Mews team,
I would like to suggest an improvement for the Notifications panel in Mews Operations.
We use notifications every day during our night shifts to check all reservations created during the day. The current notification panel becomes very difficult to work with when there are many notifications (for example, 99+).
At the moment:
- Notifications can only be viewed in a small pop-up window.
- The window cannot be resized or opened in a separate tab/page.
- There are no filtering options (e.g. by date or notification type).
- When I open a notification, the panel closes automatically and I have to…

Validate Child Room Continuous Room Availability Before Confirming Bookings
When a booking is made on a space type that shares units across multiple parent spaces (e.g., room type "Deluxe Room" spread across Villa A, Villa B, Villa C), Mews should validate whether the full duration of the stay can be accommodated in a single unit — not just whether the stay can be distributed across units within the same space type.
Current behaviour: Mews confirms availability if the stay can be "Tetris-fitted" across multiple units within the same space type, even if that requires a mid-stay room move. This can occur when some units are blocked or privatized for…

Reservation overview
In Reservation overview if you want to look another date, you must click DATE, then SEE REPORT.
Just adding 2 ARROW´S BUTONS would be such a good improvment to navigate forward or backwards. Faster search, less clicks, no choosing dates. Simple

Add an "Early Arrival" / "Arrived" Guest Status
Currently, guests can only be marked as Checked In once their room is ready. There is no way to indicate that a guest has already arrived at the hotel and is waiting for their room.
It would be useful to add an "Arrived" or "Early Arrival" status that can be selected before check-in. This would give front desk teams a clear overview of which guests are already on property, help prioritize room readiness, improve communication between departments, and provide more accurate arrival data without affecting the check-in process.

Spanish DNI not recognized in online check-in
online check-in is not recognizing Spanish DNIs as Spanish documents: the "Country of issue" field stays blank, causing the support number to be wrongly loaded into the "Document number" field.
Workaround required for every check-in: manually select Spain as country of issue, delete the wrong number from the document field, then manually enter both the support number and DNI number in their correct fields.1 vote -
Timeline improvements: colors, OTA icons, guest count & payment status
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…3 votes -
Allow properties to define a daily cut-off time for same-day reservations
Allow properties to define a daily cut-off time for same-day reservations
Many properties using Mews do not operate a 24/7 reception. Our guesthouse, for example, accepts check-ins only until 10:00 PM, yet Mews continues to allow guests to make same-day reservations until midnight.
At the moment, the only automated solution is to use Zapier with webhooks. Zapier is an excellent product, and I understand why Mews offers this integration. However, many properties only need this one simple function. It is difficult to justify purchasing an additional automation platform—sometimes together with a higher Mews subscription—just to stop same-day bookings after a…
