  1. The fields for travel documents / IDs currently contain a field labeld "Issuing city". However, this does not make any sense, because most passports and ID cards do not have a field "issuing city". Instead, as for example required by law in Austria, a field "Issuing Authority" would be required.
    Therefore, I recommend to add a field "issuing authority" and make it default in jurisdictions where this is required to collect. Make "Issuing city" hidden or optional.

  2. With the upcoming introduction of an eID in Switzerland, the ID/Passport scanning function should be updated to be able to read QR codes and access Switzerland's eID system.

    Also online check-in should allow guests to connect their eID if wanted, next to manually filling in all data.

  3. When booking through the Booking Engine, guests are not asked for their address, this only happens when they perform the check-in online.

    Please request it when booking through the Booking Engine so that we don't need to register address at physical check-in.

  4. When primary customer consents to the verification/scanning of documents, all companions should then be allowed and asked to scan theirs during the online check in flow without having to be invited to do their online check in separately.

  5. The new Upsells section released in December 2025 could benefit from clearer information. Currently, if the Online booking touchpoint is enabled for an upsell and an automatic task is also enabled, the task is not created as expected.

    Support has advised that automatic tasks currently only apply to kiosk check-ins, not when a guest adds an upsell via the online booking engine. This isn’t obvious from the current setup and can easily lead to confusion.

    It would be helpful if this limitation were clearly communicated or, ideally, improved. For example, if a guest adds a Romantic Bed Setup during the…

  6. Description:
    Currently, Mews does not support applying voucher codes to service promotions linked to a stay service in the Internet Booking Engine (IBE). While vouchers work correctly for standalone bookable services (e.g., parking rates), they are ignored when the same service is added as a service promotion to a stay service.

    Use Case:
    We frequently offer our corporate guests customized or free parking rates. To streamline this process, we need the ability to apply voucher codes to service promotions, ensuring:
    -Automatic rate adjustments based on the voucher.
    - Accurate inventory management (via bookable services).
    - Self-service booking for guests through…

  7. A placeholder character in the search bar would be great, as it would make it easier to search for names or companies when you are unsure how they are spelled.
    For example, if I'm searching for Maximilian Meyer, but don't know whether the guest is listed in the system as Max or Maxi or Maximilian and how exactly the last name is spelled. In this case, I could enter Max% M%er, for example, and the system would give me the resulting options.
    Furthermore, it would be great if you could search for several search terms at the same time to…

  8. A button to restrict a reservation regardless of rate code to do a self check in via kiosk. For example if there is a preordered vip sparkling wine etc to be delivered to room or if there is a issue with the payment that needs to be resolved via staff. By choosing to restrict self check in via kiosk the guest would be asked to see the staff to do a check in.

  9. Unless I am mistaken, There is no email template for the official email "Provide payment method" that is sent from the Guest profile / Payment / Method section with Create new Method / Send demand to guest button.

    The need is to be able to customize the email.

    The same goes to the "request a pre-authorisation". Email template seems to be missing from the email template list as well.

  10. During holiday periods, guests are often more flexible with their travel dates, especially when availability is limited or when they are looking for a specific type of stay.

    It would therefore be very useful if the booking engine allowed guests to search directly within specific space categories, rather than only performing a general availability search across the entire property.

    At the moment, the only way for a guest to find availability for a particular space category is through trial and error by changing dates manually, or by contacting the property directly. This creates unnecessary friction in the booking flow and…

  11. Mews really need the option to let the properties choose if they want a price calender in the booking engine (like every other PMS, airline etc), showing the cheapest price for each date.

  12. Currently, the Dynamic Content / Display Conditions feature in the new email editor supports segment-based conditions (e.g. trip.businessSegmentId). This is useful, but it does not cover one of the most common personalization use cases: showing different content depending on the booked room/space category.

    We would like to request that space category (resourceCategoryId) is added as a native condition type in the Display Conditions UI — alongside the existing segment-based conditions.

    Our specific use case:
    We want to display a different room image in the Confirmation Letter depending on the guest's booked space category (e.g. Standard Room, Studio, Barrier-free). This would…

  13. Hello!

    We would like the option of not displaying the property location on the guest portal as our rooms are spread out over a small area of a town so guests get directed to the wrong location if they follow the address on the portal instead of the booking notes.

  14. Suppress duplicate confirmation email when booker and guest share the same email address.

    As a property manager, I want the system to send only one confirmation email when the guest and booker are the same person, so that guests do not receive duplicate emails for the same reservation.

    Current behaviour

    When a reservation is created in Mews Operations or via the Mews Open API, and the same person is linked as both guest and booker (identical email address), Mews sends two separate emails: one guest confirmation and one booker confirmation. The guest receives the same email twice.
    Expected behaviour

  15. We have some standard e-mails to guests; i.e.
    * if someone brings a dog, we send them a message where dogs are allowed and where to go for a walk
    * if there is a party with possible noise on their booked date, we inform them in advance and offer them a free upgrade
    * if they rent a bicycle, we explain them where to find this and how to return
    etc.

    It would be great if we can set these as our own templates in various languages so we can send them from Mews as soon as we receive…

  17. We have benefits connected to specific rates. It would be helpful if, when these rates are booked, a task automatically appears so we always remember to provide these benefits to the guests.

  18. We need the option to block specific rate codes from being eligible for self check-in via the kiosk. Some rates require guests to check in at the reception in order to present valid identification and/or to pay using specific payment methods that are not supported by the kiosk

  19. If a guest has checked in online early in their journey, it would be nice if they can come back to the guest journey and add a product after they completed they online check in.
    This means you can have guests checking in online for example just after their booking and they can manage their reservation in the guest portal. Do if they want to add an early checkin the day before, or order a late checkout during their stay, that they can do so in the guest portal.

  20. Would it be possible to make it optional to send emails for groups only to owner of the reservation and once? We now book rooms for groups all on 1 guestprofile. And when there are 8 rooms booked, this guest receives alle service emails 8 times.
