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. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. Request for a room allocation strategy prioritizing rooms with the longest vacancy periods. This approach helps reduce unnecessary housekeeping costs and supports Legionella prevention.

  4. In other systems we had before we could see in the mobil versjon who created the task and who have updateded it. it would be greate if we could see it in the mews app aswell. I can see that in mews desktop versjon i can see this info, but its much better to have it in the app aswell since our technical department only take with their phone when they go out to do a task.

  5. We have built Mews (why I chose it) to not only book rooms, but also all our activities as bookable services (trail rides, roping, archery, etc). We need to create house blocks daily for activities to block times.

    House Block only works right now by adding in one House Block at a time.

    Improvement: 1) select house block, 2) select start/end date 3) select all "spaces" to block. Now I could block my entire property for a ranch buyout or corporate retreat needs.

  6. Via Peppol mogen alleen XML-bestanden worden verstuurd. Om toch een PDF mee te sturen, moet deze geëmbed worden in de XML (gecodeerd), zodat er technisch nog steeds slechts één XML-bestand wordt verzonden.

    Helaas is het niet verplicht om een pdf mee te sturen via Peppol. Daarom vraag ik of het mogelijk is om toch telkens de PDF te embedden in de XML?

    Zonder pdf is het voor onze klant moeilijk om facturen te lezen, te controleren en te boeken.

  9. 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.

  11. Bulk select multiple reservations in a group and move them altogether in one movement from one series of spaces to another. At this stage, we have to individually select each reservation to change the space, which can take time for large groups.

  12. Guest BILL is charged to designated payment type. We would like that at the time of checkout the detailed version of the guest BILL is then automatically sent to the guests email on file. Ideal for business travelers who need detailed invoices for expense report purposes.

  13. When creating a new profile to associate with a bill or to issue the bill on the company during check out it takes very long for a new company profile to be available for selection as company owner or associated profile. Sometimes it takes several minutes for the company profile to become available in the input fields!!!
    This is unacceptable for most guests and unnecessarily prolongs and delays the checkout process.

  14. Currently company profiles are added to guest profiles automatically. This should be optional via a tick box. In our case guest' are not always booking via the same company (rate).

  15. Currently, Mews does not allow users to transfer space categories to different bookable services; instead, users have to be manually recreated in the new service. It would be beneficial and useful if we could create a transfer process (Rates, Products included)

    1. Operational Efficiency

    • Eliminates the need for manual recreation of space categories, rates, and products, saving significant time for property managers.
    • Reduces human error during manual setup, ensuring consistency across services.

    2. Scalability and Flexibility

    • Makes it easier for hotels to reorganize or expand services (e.g., moving rooms from “Accommodation” to “Event Spaces”) without disrupting existing configurations.
    • Supports multi-service…

  16. 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

  17. 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…

  18. Yes, billing automation having just gotten smarter was a windfall for our operation. As a small property with few Staff members, all of us hold many roles on a daily basis. We have no accounting or finance department, no IT department, to name just a few. When billing automation rolled out, automatically sorting charges into bills by stay dates and whether they are owned by an OTA or a Guest erased many of the accidental billing issues we had to correct when a Guest was incorrectly charged for a future stay or for an OTA-paid stay, billing the Guest’s credit…

  19. When a user re-issues a bill or invoice, a reason code is requested. It could be useful to have a list of standard reason codes (wrong payment, wrong price, wrong profile etc) and that the reason codes were accessible through the API. Then it can be used to pinpoint the reason for a re-issue. From that we can pinpoint training, information or setup to make sure we avoid too many credits.

  20. It would improve efficiency if we could create a batch of bookings for the same or different company, all at once, by just choosing the dates we need, and then just repeating that same pattern of rooms needed for all bookings. To be able to assign an individual customer to each would be preferable, like being able to create a new customer for each different date, in a faster way.

    Creating group bookings one by one is very tedious and takes a long time, and for properties that hold various groups a day or a week, this would definitely be…
