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. Have the possibility to create a copy of an existing block reservation and just change the dates, booker, room types, price, room amount if needed. If the same company has a series of blocks we can just make a copy of the first block and change the details

  2. We offer down bedding by default and hypoallergenic upon request. I want the guest to have the option to check the hypoallergenic box when making their reservation so we know how to prepare their bedding. We can't find out upon arrival that this is needed as it takes too much time to implement. The special requests blank field isn't good enough as the guest needs a specific prompt for this request that we can automatically alert housekeeping to.

  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. When automatic no‑show cancellation is enabled, Mews currently cancels all no‑shows at 6:00 am on the day after arrival. This works well in most cases, but creates challenges for guests who have communicated a late arrival.

    Request:
    Add a simple “Late Arrival” flag on a reservation that can be set by front desk agents without checking the guest in.

    If a reservation is flagged as Late Arrival:
    - It should not be automatically cancelled as a no‑show
    - The reservation remains active until the guest arrives or is manually handled by staff
    - Normal no‑show rules continue to apply to…

  5. As a small hotel, we don’t always place product orders every day. As a result, we sometimes forget to check the product checklist. We would like the ability to receive a daily email at a configurable time (ex. 7 p.m. the day before) with the product checklist included directly in the body of the email. This would eliminate the need for multiple clicks to access the checklist and reduce the risk of missing product orders.

  6. Es ist unglaublich nervig, dass ich, wenn ich eine neue Reservierung manuell anlege, nicht sofort alle Daten wie z.B. die Adresse des Gastes oder die zugewiesene Firma eingeben kann. Warum kann man das Fenster dafür nicht erweitern?

    It's incredibly annoying that when I create a new reservation manually, I can't immediately enter all the details, such as the guest's address or the assigned company. Why can't the window be expanded for this?

  7. We often have large groups of guests with on all rooms the same items booked. If we make a mistake, or something changes in the booking, we have to go room by room to cancel the wrong item. It would be great that if you select rooms with the same items on them, ( because you add the items to all the roms at the same time) you can also remove them all together.

  9. Our rates are based on age. However, it's difficult to know the exact age of each person unless we go into each profile and calculate it individually. This is neither simple nor practical, for individuals nor groups.

    Would it be possible to display the age of each person, perhaps in parentheses, right after their name in the booking details? This would make it clearer for everyone.

  10. We're new to MEWS and whilst the functionality is brilliant (thank you), our front of house team really struggle with the visual appearance of the timeline. Spending lots of screen time on a screen with poor visual appearance and contrasts is not healthy and inefficient as it is difficult to see the timeline at a glance - please could you look at improving visual contrasts both colours and lines between dates/spaces for improved accessibility.

    Thank you very much

  11. Option A: Add a “Snapshot” Button

    Introduce a Print button in the Reservation Overview >> Print output mirrors the page as is.

    Similar to existing print‑enabled reports (e.g., Space Status)

    Option B: Export as PDF

    Add Export → PDF (Layout View) alongside Excel
    Preserves:

    Page UI formatting
    Column order
    Grouping
    Visual hierarchy
    Header Titles (Stayovers, Arrivals, etc...)

    📌 Either option alone would significantly improve usability; offering both is ideal but not required for initial delivery.

    Acceptance Criteria

    ✅ Layout in print/PDF matches the on‑screen Reservation Overview as a Snapshot
    ✅ Respects filters, dates, and sorting applied by the user.
    ✅…

  12. Make company owned reservations possible.
    It will allow to manage corporate clients more effectively by associating company profiles with reservations.
    Provide a comprehensive view of all bookings associated with a corporate account. As well highly useful for hotels that offer coworking spaces, where companies own a office space.

  13. 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

  15. Nous aimerions, lors de l'utilisation d'un bloc de disponibilité pouvoir supprimer dans le moteur de réservation spécifique à celui-ci l'accès au produit du service réservable.

    Exemple : laisser le choix aux clients classique via la moteur de réservation d'ajouter le ménage de fin de séjour.
    Mais ne pas faire apparaitre cette option sur le moteur de réservation spécifique à un bloc de disponibilité.

  18. When you dowload an excel rooming list from a group reservation, all reservations are shown in a random order on the excel sheet, and this is not possible to change! Preferably I would like to at least have the reservations sorted by arrival date, but that is not the case right now. It would be good if the default sorting was the arrival date. Or it would be even better if you could change the sorting yourself however you like, but right now since the excel sheet is locked it is not possible. Please look into this.

  20. 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
