The option to change the standard text when no more rooms are available
When the visitor of our booking street clicks on a date on which we have no availability, he or she will receive the advice to select another date or to contact our reception (by e-mail or by telephone). Currently it is impossible to change this text.
We notice that our reception is now receiving many calls regarding our availability. In most cases, the caller reacts with disappointment, because providing these contact details incorrectly suggests that a room is still available.
The option to change this text would be greatly appreciated.
8 votesHello,
we are currently changing the way how we will show no avaliability and we will put this change into it as well, so we are minimizing the impact on the property.
Thanks a lot for good input.

Time setting to order bookable products / services
We offer certain additional services (like afternoon tea) for which we require a preparation time of 48 hours. unfortunately there doesn't seem to be the possibility to mark this when setting up the service - only that you can offer it prior to arrival. is there a way we can add a time limit on (i.e. 48 hours prior to arrival) and that it generates a task not on the day of arrival but for example a week prior to arrival or on the day of the product being added by the guest.

Multiple booking service in one Booking engine
At the moment every booking service has its own Booking engine. It would be great if the customer could book multiple services in one flow. For example accommodation and parking spaces at the same time.

External name space types
When we use the space types in combination with the booking engine, the name of the space type is displayed very prominently in the booking proces.
When you book a house, boat, bicycle or special accommodation instead of a room, the booking engine shows it as e.g. a site.
We would like to see this at least as an external name that you can change to whatever you want.26 votesHello from the Mews product team.

Possibility to add another email address in CC in automated emails
Often the booker asks us to copy the guest in the proposal or confirmation emails. Currently, we have to send the emails twice (once at the time of booking and again through the booking module). Would it be more efficient and clearer for the guest/booker to have the possibility to add another email address (recipients) in CC for the proposal and confirmation emails?

Add cut-off time restriction option to the booking engine
We do not have a 24 hour front desk and do not want the ability for a guest to make a same day reservation after 9pm. Currently we can only set a restriction for the whole day, please add the ability to set a specific time.

Bed Configuration Option in Booking Engine
We have a large amount of room types that have King beds capable of being converted into Twin configuration. Rather than choosing a set amount of rooms to sell as "Twin" we would prefer to make it an OPTION for the guest to choose their bed configuration. That way the full quantity of splittable beds is available to sell on our booking engine. Additionally, from an operational perspective we know 100% which bed configuration guests require. Splitting beds (or combining them to a King) is very labour intensive and has cost implications from a linen/bedding perspective. Having clear options at…

Flexibility to add additional fields to Booking Engine
Properties are looking for more personalized experience. It's important to collect information such as allergies, personal preferences, arrival time, etc.
It would be great if there was a flexibility to add additional fields in the booking engine (arrival, allergies, preferences, occasion for the stay) and give properties flexibility to collect this important data from their guests at the time of booking.

The Sign in image set under "Property" (seen in the guest portal) is also the image shown as background in the Booking Engine.
We want the option to set different Pictures.Sign In image looks best in 640x800 while Booking engine background looks best in fullscreen (1080x1920).

Multiproperty vouchers
We are currently using Mews on Enterprise level. Thou multiproperty Mews gives us great analitics, unfortunately is a bit weaker on the day-to-day use. It would be great if we could create one promo voucher that would work for all the properties in the multiproperty booking engine. Currently this option is not available and vouchers need to be created separately for each property.

Possibility to turn off automated e-mails for individual guests
We are expiring very unsatisfied guests who stays with us every week and is 'getting spammed with e-mails' both before and after each of their stay. We need to option to turn the automated e-mails off in the guest profile.
These e-mails should still be sent to all new guests whereas returning guests seem to get VERY annoyed by receiving the same e-mails weekly in connection with their stays.
Right now our only option is to completely remove their e-mail address from Mews which creates tons of issues with multiple guest profiles for the same guest, issues with sending confirmations…

More options to display availability
It would be nice if you can either,
- Display "Only few rooms left" when inventory is low rather than the exact numbers all the time
- Or display room availability by space types or categories. eg: we would like to only show availability for only the suite rooms5 votesHello from the Mews product team.

"Maximum persons" misleading for beds in a dorm
Hello Mews Team
As a hostel we rent out single beds in a dorm. In the booking engine those units shows as "maximum persons: 1", "available: 10". I understand the logic behind this, but many of our costumers seem to struggle with the "maximum persons: 1" bit when booking for multiple people.
Ideally we would like to have the option which of our categories show the "maximum persons" tag.

Confirmation letters
When sending a confirmation to a booker, the name of the guest does not appear on the confirmation letter but only the reservation number. This does not look professional at all and we receive many complaints by our guests. They feel like they are a number and not a guest.

Promotional Code Verification
Show the guest that their promotional code had worked right when they put it in the booking engine
The guest enters the promotion code, then the next page, they are choosing a category, but it doesn’t show the promotional rate until the following page.
If the promotional rate didn’t work, the guest wouldn’t know. When the guest puts in the promotional code - there should be something that indicates, "this worked!"7 votesHello from the Mews product team.

Hide unavailable rooms
Possibility to show on the booking engine ONLY the rooms available to book once a date has been selected and not show the one already booked and not available anymore.
From a sales point of view, we would rather show the rooms we sell and not the one we already have sold.
If a visitor on our website wish to book a specific room type, which in this case is not available anymore, he will most likely book somewhere else. It does not add any value to our property to show the guest what is already fully booked.7 votesHello from the Mews product team.

Booking Engine markup per competitor
differentiate the markup by competitor. EG: Booking =114%, HRS=110%, Weekendesk=120%,etc., because markup percentages are different per company.
Now it is only possible to give One markup for all chosen Competitors.1 voteHello from the Mews product team.

Allow Password Managers to prefill payment card details
Currently, when booking with Mews Booking Engine, it won't allow me to use the payment cards stored in 1password.
It'd be great to allow this to make the whole booking process easier.
