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 events to metrics and reports. 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. At the time, I can only create a restriction for one rate or rate group at a time. I would have to create multiple restrictions to cove two rate codes. For example, I would like to create a 2-night minimum for my Airbnb rate (Travel Agent Group) & all my rates that flow off the best flex rate. So I have to create 2 different restrictions and keep up with changing both when I make changes.

  2. MEWS currently does not support allotment.
    For a property with a lot of allotments contracts in place throughout the year and some with release on different dates i.e 1 room on 2 days release, 3 rooms on 5 days release etc. this is not manageable through the current block feature as there can only be one release date. Hence, all allotments need to be entered as individual blocks (which could be a very large number rather than just one block covering the whole year), this is just not sustainable. The alternative is to enter bookings as optional with release dates…

    Hello Mewsers! 


    In this video, I am excited to introduce you to the next chapter of Group Management in Mews with Allotments.


    Allotments is a combination of multiple features that allow for better contract management with travel agencies and corporate groups. I will highlight key elements, such as multiple release rules and pick-up distribution, which provide more flexibility and automation.


    Watch this video to learn how these features can save time, increase revenue, and improve efficiency in managing group bookings.


    We have received a large volume of feedback from properties who would like to learn more about this functional. If you would be interested in a session to cover this in more detail. Please do lest us know by responding to this post in the Mews Community.


    Kind regards,

    Aldair

  3. Availability Blocks no longer copy rates from the BAR, even if setup to do so. Instead these load Base Rate with weights.

    This old school way of Groups pricing is no longer viable for properties with advanced RMS where each room is being priced fully dynamically and independently.

    Please bring back that functionality to this absolutely great feature. Since the availability blocks were introduced, our Groups managers cut hours spent on having to manually process each quotation. But without this pricing in there, the tool became useless, unfortunately.

    Thank you.

  5. We have more than enough of different kinds of stay items for halfboard and other food peroducts. Could you give us a saved report to print all items used only on one report? I mean as we use the operations/product report but we could have a fixed report to show all halfboard items and breakfast and special dinners? Like a food and beverages report. Please.

  6. We are a Boutique hotel with 40 rooms without meeting rooms. Located In between centre of Amsterdam and a large (RAI) conference Centre. In case of large conferences or Events in the city we can sell at higher rate than leisure. Because these city wide conference are known for years ahead we like to have a space on top of timeline to place the name of the event with warning like "only sell high' or 'do not offer to groups' .

  7. It could be awesome to be able to add different colours or notes to some dates in the Rate Management calendar so we can mark some special dates as holly weeks, special events, etc to pay attention to the rates on those days

  8. Once a reservation is canceled in Mews, unfortunately it must be recreated in case a guest decides they would like to stay. This can be inconvenient in case of no shows that must come the next day or reservations that may have been canceled accidentally. An additional feature to reinstate canceled bookings could help simplify these occasions as all booking details could be preserved and records would be unified.

    Hello Mewsers,


    Thank you for your request, we are happy to inform you that it is no possible to group by groups in the reservation report in order to view all of the groups in your property. 


    For larger groups you can use the availability block report to view group information.


  10. It would be great if you would increase the limit of rate codes

    Hello from the Mews product team!

    We are happy to announce that we have released an update to the way in which product rules are structured.

    What has changed?

    You will now be able to add multiple products to each product rule.

    What does this mean?

    Where you used to need 4 rules containing the same conditions for 4 different products, you now only require 1.

    For more information, please visit our release notes page at https://releases.mews.com/ where you will find some great examples, as well as a link to the updated guide.

    Kind regards,
    Aldair

  11. Currently restriction filters reset when deleting a restriction which makes using the system very annoying. Filters should be kept when deleting restrictions.

    Hello from the Mews product team. We are so pleased to let you know that your request has been resolved. This was actually a bug in the system and our tech team has fixed it. Please do reach out if this issue persists.

  12. Rate restrictions are currently uneditable in Mews, meaning that even for a minor change, you must delete the old one and create an entirely new restriction.

  16. The Product Report is a great tool to identify all products that your property may offer and to help identify daily needs for your operations department. An additional filter to group products by product category could save some manual calculation as it could then show all totals within the report.

  17. "The rate management screen in Mews contains a lot of information and is often used to plan overbooking strategies and revenue management for upcoming weeks. Redesigning this page could provides a lot of opportunity to improve the interface, make it more user-friendly, and include the most valuable details for the people who use this screen most.

    Let us know! What would you like to see on the new rate management screen?"

    Hi Mewser,

    Thank you for voting for this idea!

    Now, you can see exactly how many spaces are free (the number is positive) or overbooked (it’s negative) on the space categories level with the improved Occupancy and Availability reports.

    Thanks and talk to you all soon in some another idea release! :)
