Add minimal ''Buffer'' time between rentals
Hello,
We would like to be able to add a ''buffer period'' or preparation time between rentals, especially for hourly rentals.
For example, if a guests rents a bike from 9 to 10am, and my buffer is 1 hour, then it will only be available to rent again from 11 am.
This will prevent guest overlap if they are a few minutes early or late.

More filters
Being able to filter more in the system, instead of having to "sort by" or select each category one by one to get the information needed.
For example, being able to select multiple rate codes/or guests with a specific cost when filtering in the booking report.
Also being able to search by the guest name in the reservation report.1 vote -
Booking engine guest journey
It would be nice to turn around to guest journey in the booking engine, so the guest are presented for the different prices and/or packages first and then then can select which room type they would prefer.
Adding a calendar to show prices would also be great.

Make a reservation with zero occupants
It would be very practical to be able to make a reservation without having to specify the occupants. For example, for company seminars where some rooms remain unoccupied despite the hotel being privatised, we are obliged to add at least one adult to the booking, even if the room is empty. This complicates management and does not reflect reality.

Cross-Category Space Updates (Tracking Upgrade Impact)
The Idea
Allow users to change the Assigned Space Category across different major categories (e.g., from Bed to Room) without forcing an update to the Requested Space Category.
The Proposed Workflow
When a user moves a reservation between space categories, Mews should trigger a simple confirmation window.
The original button of "update requested category" should remain as it is, in case the user prefer to updated it.
The system should not force the Requested Category to match the new Assignment.
The Goal
To preserve the original booking intent. This allows hotels to accurately track upgrade impact and the delta between…

Ability to use the same e-mail for a separate reservation under a different name
We need the ability to use the same e-mail for a different reservation. Why that isn't available is beyond me. We DO NOT want to use the "group" reservation option. We prefer that both reservations be totally separate.
BUT for some reason MEWS does not allow an e-mail to be used more than once.1 vote -
children age
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.

Fire Attention & Fire List
I believe Mews needs a dedicated "Fire Attention" feature to enhance guest safety during emergencies. The implementation would ideally include:
Flagging System: A simple checkbox on both the Reservation and Guest Profile levels to mark "Fire Attention". If checked on the profile, it should remain a permanent attribute to ensure returning guests are always accounted for.
Dashboard Integration: A new "Fire List" section under the "Guests In House" report.
Report Functionality: This list must be accessible with a single click and organized by room number. It should clearly display:
Room number and guest count.
Guest names and age categories.

guest preference
In customer profile :`Add in a box for Guest preferences (room type, side of building, room number, etc), and have it pop-up or appear on the first booking screen when creating a booking through MEWS ops. At the moment, we need to track down the preference notes in the profile (under many tabs), go back and update the booking, instead of having it on hand easily when creating the booking. Same for allergies/food preferences or membership status
PS, we are ex-Hotello, and this feature was amazing in dealing with customer preferences right as we were completing the booking, and right…

create restrictions on multiple dates at the same time
Would be great to be able to apply the same restriction for the same rates on multiple dates, rather than having to come back and enter the same filters over and over!

Business package handling in PMS and kiosk view
we would like to ask for guidance regarding the handling of Business Packages, as we are currently facing significant operational challenges in daily use.
From our perspective, the key requirement is that the Business Package is displayed as one single bundled item
both in the PMS from a staff perspective
and in the kiosk view for guestsIt should not be split into individual components such as wifi, drinks or food.
Current situation
On the final invoice, the Business Package is displayed correctly as one bundled position.
However, in the operational PMS view, the package is broken down into multiple…1 vote -
disable create keys for specific service or room category
we want to be able to disable the "create keys" for a specific service or a room category. For example conference rooms that we have as a separate service in Mews have traditional metal keys or for the Parking where they only need a code we would like to have the "create keys" option NOT ticked.

Cancellation Policy
We found that some cancellation policy methods feel unclear to guests who book last-minute, and after reviewing the logic behind them, I can confirm that the behavior is due to a current system limitation. But it still needs to be fixed.
One of the reservations was created on 11/5/2025 at 2:30:56 PM, and the system shows the following rules:
• Confirmation: IDR 0.00, 50% (Standard Rate)
• 60 days before check-in: IDR 0.00, 100% (Standard Rate)
However, the confirmation email displays something completely different:
• Cancellation after 11/5/2025 2:30:56 PM: fee of 50%
• Cancellation after 9/18/2025 2:00:00 PM: fee…2 votes -
Add room-count restrictions for reservations and daily inventory (min/max)
Idea:
It would be extremely useful to introduce two new restriction options that control rate availability based on room count – both on the reservation level and the daily inventory level. These are different use cases but equally important for pricing strategies.
- Reservation-based restriction: Min/Max rooms per booking What we need:
A setting that makes a rate bookable only from X rooms or only up to X rooms within one reservation.
Why:
Group rates: Should appear only when a reservation contains at least 10 rooms.
Promo / early bird / code rates: Should be limited to a small number of…

cancellation
Hi MEWS Community,
We currently use non-refundable rates, but on Booking.com we still allow a certain level of flexibility:
Guests can modify their stay dates prior to arrival with no penalty for the cancelled nights. The stay itself remains non-refundable, only date changes are permitted.This flexibility works very well for us commercially and helps reduce full cancellations while keeping the revenue secured.
However, we’re finding it difficult to replicate this exact logic in MEWS.
At the moment, MEWS treats non-refundable rates as fully rigid, without the option to allow date changes while keeping the payment non-refundable.When a guest shortens or…

Additional services revert to previous owner at check-in
Summary
When changing the bill owner, additional services (e.g. breakfast and breakfast adjustment) initially follow the new owner correctly. However, as soon as the guest checks in, these items revert back to the previous Reservation Owner due to default billing automation.Current impact
Manual changes done before check-in are undone
Creates daily manual work (15+ bills)
Increases risk of billing errors
Improvement request
Please allow one of the following:Additional services to respect manual owner changes and not revert at check-in, or
A billing automation setting to control whether additional services follow the Bill Owner or Reservation Owner during check-in.

Open Bills/Unpaid Balance marked on timeline
Seeing a marker on the timeline for reservations that are unpaid, have an open bill, or are carrying a balance would be a huge help for reservation teams. Even just a dot like Cloudbeds has.

Make new "last minute" arrivals arriving today more visible on the arrivals list?
Can you make new "last minute" arrivals for today more visible on the arrivals list?
- Arrivals made between yesterday 00:00 and today are not easy to see unless you check the reservation report, which is not user friendly in a fast pace environment.
- Can they be marked in the system with a symbol or color or notification (or in any other way) for us to be notified on the day?
