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. In timeline to have space feature in the hovering/mouse over effect at the room number would be time saving.

    We have a lot of different rooms and it would so great to just hover over the room number to see space features. Do we have stairs in that specific room, is it a newly renovated room, room in the garden house etc etc.

    We have a lot of new staff that do not know the specifics for all the rooms and planning for arrivals this would be awesome.

  2. Properties need the Reservations report to distinguish between the originally booked arrival date and the actual check-in date/time.

    At the moment, when a reservation is checked in later than its scheduled arrival date, the Reservations report can show the actual check-in date in the Arrival field instead of the originally booked arrival date.

    This creates reporting issues for properties that use the Reservations report export for stay-duration calculations and operational analysis.

    Current behavior:
    A reservation booked from 20/12/2025 to 27/12/2025 can appear in the Reservations report with an arrival date of 21/12/2025 if the guest was checked in on 21/12/2025.

  3. We work extensively with product rules in Mews and have encountered a recurring challenge: the inability to define a start and end date for product rules. This limitation creates significant complications, particularly when we need to add or replace products in existing rules.

    The Issue:

    When a product is added to an existing product rule, it is automatically applied to all future reservations, including those that were created before the change but have not yet been checked in. This means that even though a reservation was made under the old rule, the updated product is applied at check-in, changing the…

  5. I would like to suggest a small but very useful improvement for the Internal use function in the Mews Operations Timeline.

    At the moment, when creating an Internal use reservation, we can enter the block name, choose the assigned space, set the start and end time, add notes, and then create the reservation. This works well for one room or space.

    However, in daily hotel operations, we often need to block several rooms for the same internal reason — for example maintenance work, staff use, management rooms, renovation tasks, inspections, or operational blocks that affect more than one room at…

  6. Hi,

    especially with groups booking multiple rooms, it happens that:

    in the same room, one or more guests arrive or depart on different dates. Or, for example, in a triple room, one person might leave before the other two, and another might arrive to take their place. We need a way to specify this; it’s also important for per-night-per-guest charges, such as city tax (automatically calculated per night per person), which must be reduced if a guest leaves early. But right now we have to do this manually, and there’s no way to specify different check-in/check-out dates.

  7. Proposal: Automatic MLOS Restrictions Based on High-Demand Days in Atomize

    I would like to propose a feature where Atomize (RMS by Mews) can automatically apply MLOS (Minimum Length of Stay) restrictions based on manually set predefined criteria, such as high-demand periods.

    Currently, MLOS restrictions must be set up manually in the “Restrictions” section (e.g., Min LOS arrival or Min LOS through). This process can be time-consuming and less responsive during periods of rapidly changing demand.

    The proposal is:
    Enable Atomize to detect high-demand situations (based on metrics like occupancy, pickup, or forecast) and automatically apply relevant MLOS restrictions according…

  8. It would be nice to have Room Size information in the Booking engine. Currently we have Maximum persons and Available rooms, so Room Size would be nice to be right next to it.
    I understand this can be added in description of the room, however having a simple field with this information would be much more helpful and easier for guests to understand.

  9. Split Reservation / Automatically transfer booking items when a reservation is split

    Description:

    When a reservation is split due to a room move, scheduled booking items currently remain on the original reservation and must be added manually to the new one.
    This increases administrative work and creates a risk of services being missed.
    It would be helpful if all future booking items (e.g. weekly cleans, breakfast packages, late check-outs, or other scheduled services) were automatically copied to the new reservation for the remaining stay dates, while items that have already been used remain on the original reservation.

    Benefits:

    Reduces manual…

  11. Double room supplement
    It is recommended that the double room supplement is shown separately from the single price on the invoice. This is particularly advantageous for business travellers who are travelling with a companion and require a separate invoice.

    Doppelzimmerzuschlag
    Es wird empfohlen, den Doppelzimmerzuschlag separat vom Einzelpreis auf der Rechnung darzustellen. Dies ist insbesondere für Geschäftsreisende vorteilhaft, die in Begleitung anreisen und eine separate Rechnung benötigen.

  12. It would be nice to get some sort of notification when a booking is cancelled. That way it is possible for us to know if we suddenly have a room avaliable, when we know other guestst wish to stay with us, and we can inform them.

  13. 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…

  14. Problem

    Customers managing group reservations find the current invoice difficult to read because it displays individual consumed postings and package components for every room and guest. For larger bookings, invoices become excessively detailed and are not suitable for finance and accounting teams.

    Desired Outcome

    Allow invoices to be generated in a summarized format that:

    -Groups charges by revenue category.
    -Consolidates repeated products/services.
    -Displays supporting stay information separately.
    -Includes a tax summary by VAT rate.
    -Maintains accounting accuracy while reducing invoice length.

    Example

    Instead of:

    Room package
    Breakfast
    Breakfast
    City tax
    Breakfast
    Breakfast

    display:

    Accommodation (10 rooms) €2,220
    Tourism fee €60…

  15. It would be very useful to be able to separate (1) the permission to charge a credit card online or via Mews Terminal and (2) the permission to refund (partially or all) a payment via a tokenized credit card for a given user (or a given group of user). For example front office agents should be able to charge a credit card online or via Mews Terminal but should not be permitted to make any refunds (which are to be restricted to a manager).

  17. Mobile amenities that are not part of the standard room equipment (e.g., extra beds, baby cots, diaper bins, children's stools, coffee/tea service, bathrobes) should be able to be managed centrally in Mews. Currently, mobile, limited-availability amenities cannot be centrally represented in Mews. Hotels are forced to work with external lists or manual coordination to track availability and usage. This leads to a lack of transparency regarding availability, double bookings, increased coordination efforts between reception and housekeeping, and potential guest dissatisfaction. We would like the ability to create mobile amenities centrally in Mews, manage them with a limited quantity, assign them…

  19. Problem

    For jurisdictions where guests become tax-exempt after a certain length of stay (for example, 30+ days), Mews calculates tax when each night is posted and locks that calculation permanently.

    If a reservation is initially below the exemption threshold and is later extended beyond it, only the newly created nights receive the exemption. Previously posted nights remain taxable, requiring manual correction.

    Business Impact

    • Significant manual effort for properties managing long-term stays.
    • Increased risk of tax correction errors.

    Proposed Solution

    Provide a controlled mechanism to re-evaluate tax exemption eligibility when a reservation crosses a configured threshold.

    Potential approaches:

    • Automatically recalculate eligible,…

  20. Our operations and guest experience would be so much smoother if tasks were automatically assigned to a specified department when a product is added! Product options currently only automatically assign tasks if a product is added during online check-in. This should be an option when a product is added during any step of the guest journey - either by the guest or by the reservations specialist.
