  1. We would like to see a guests preferred space features in the timeline. Possible to add those to the information that appears when you hover over a reservation in the timeline? And maybe also include a symbol that appears when a guests has preferred space features?

  2. In order to address operational issues and after benchmarking several hostels, we would like to enhance our HOSHO hotel's pre-stay email (sent for online check-in) with “Co-living Rules” (essential in a hostel setting with shared dorms).

    The aim is to add them both:
    - to the email encouraging guests to check in online (by enriching its content)
    - to the Mews platform to which they are redirected to do so

    Can you please let us know if this is possible and how long it will take?

    We need it asap to develop our brand.

    Kind regards,
    Mary

  3. Please make the new email templates better suited for group bookings. Summary merge tags are no longer available in the new email templates.

    In the new templates, if a booker books 21 x Room A, the booker confirmation shows Room A + description + rate 21 times!! Same goes for tourist tax.
    Room A + description + rate
    Room A + description + rate
    Room A + description + rate
    ...
    tourist tax
    tourist tax
    tourist tax
    ...

    If items are the same, please summarize them in the booker confirmation one one line like:
    21 x Room A + description…

  4. Current Guest Portal was implemented with limitation: “Service cross-sells are offered for single reservations only”.
    We would like to have upsells offered for grouped reservations, including grouped reservations created in Booking engine from promoted services as well.

  5. Disabling the “Display marketing email opt-in” option in Registration card configuration is only applicable to the registration card pdf. We were expecting that the “I’d like to occasionally receive marketing updates…” check-box would not show in the Booking engine, Online check-in and Kiosk. In Canada, any purchase would imply soft consent if we don't explicitly show the check box.

  6. For an existing reservation, the kiosk will display at check-in the guest name, "your booking", check out" and then a section with the header "Included.
    Now for an Expedia Collect booking, underneath the header "Included", we find 2x City Tax. However, the city tax is not included in the Expedia price and the guest has to pay the city tax extra. This creates an ambiguous situation where the guest may think that the city tax is already included in the price.

  7. all chats sent from the property should be a different colour than the guests message.

    When a chat has been answered it should move to another field of answered messages so it doesnt get mixed up with unanswered messages.

    possibility of accessing the chat through reservations and see previous conversation with a guest for example when checking them in.

  8. More and more properties are asking for the option to custom-choose at the property-level to require certain elements when a user is creating customer profiles >> such as nationality, email, and/or telephone.

  9. At the moment the guests cannot add any minibar item to the bill, they have to come extra to the FO desk to settle the payment for these items.

    If they could add it during CO it would be much effective.

  10. Product Checklist Export

    Hello,

    I would like to submit a request for improvement regarding the product checklist feature in MEWS.

    🧾 Current issue:
    We regularly offer packages that include products (meals, massages, activities, deliveries, etc.) provided by external partners.
    Currently, it is not possible to easily export the product checklist linked to reservations in a usable format (Excel or PDF).

    This prevents us from:

    Clearly communicating the list of services to our partners each day;

    Effectively tracking the logistics of services to be delivered;

    Reducing errors and omissions on the partners’ side.

    ✅ Requested improvement:
    We would like to have…

  11. Currently, when an employee responds to a guest message, the notification "new message" remains for all other employees with permission to receive guest messages.

    It would be more efficient if the notification would clear for ALL the minute it is actioned or replied to with the user's Initials and timestamp.

  12. A useful feature would be to incorporate a simple AI tool that proposes alternative available rooms to guests, allowing them to switch if their preferred room isn’t available for the entire stay.

  13. We want to be able to communicate directly with customers via their Booking.com email address. This is possible in many other systems, but yours does not offer this option. As a result, customers who book through Booking.com do not receive any scheduled communications. This is a major issue that can only be resolved by you.

  14. For a bookable service for space like parking or bike, or similar a guest /adult count doesn’t make sense. It should be possible to disable the adult count field in the booking engine for that bookable service somehow.

    See https://community.mews.com/how-do-i-2/how-do-i-setup-a-booking-engine-without-guest-count-1676 for reference

  15. The Pay Now vs Pay Later option is the only tool that displays remaining balance in the Guest Portal and it only works for customers with scheduled payments. There should be a way for customers to see their remaining balance before and during OCI.

  16. We're currently able to sell additional bookable services to guests if they elect to use the online check-in module (using the "Service promotions" feature), however we can't offer these same services to guests if they elect to use the Kiosk check-in module. This makes no sense. We would suggest adding a "During Kiosk check-in” check-box option in Service promotions > Promotion settings > Offer to customer* to supplement the current “In booking engine” and “During online check-in” options that are already offered.

  17. Current Rate Comparison Box in the Booking Engine does not pull data from the OTA's URL leaving room for human error especially when accounting for complex promotions and rate parity from the OTA's website.

    If one is to use it properly, they must post a percentage adjustment in the "Competitor price relative adjustment" field to display the difference in prices.

    Using the OTA URL, this should be able to complete the info in the box therefore push for more direct bookings.

  18. Liebes Mews-Team,

    Aktuelle Situation:
    In den E-Mail-Templates stehen aktuell nur begrenzte Variablen zur Verfügung, um Buchungsdetails darzustellen.

    Anforderung:
    Wir benötigen zusätzliche Variablen in den E-Mail-Templates, insbesondere:

    Einzelsumme je gebuchtem Extraprodukt

    Gesamtsumme aller gebuchten Extraprodukte

    Begründung / Nutzen:
    Diese Informationen sind essenziell, um unsere Angebote professionell an Firmenkunden weiterzugeben. Vor allem bei Firmenbuchungen ist eine klare Aufschlüsselung einzelner Extraprodukte sowie eine Gesamtsumme erforderlich, um den internen Anforderungen unserer Geschäftskunden gerecht zu werden.

    Erwartetes Ergebnis:

    Die E-Mail-Templates bieten die Möglichkeit, sowohl Einzelpreise als auch die Gesamtsumme der Extraprodukte dynamisch einzubinden.

    Damit können automatisierte E-Mails als vollständiges und transparentes Angebot an Firmenkunden genutzt…

  20. If I upgrade guest free of charge in advance, the guests are able to see it in the kiosk. We would like to keep that as a suprise upon their arrival. Furthermore, it does not show them as a upgrade. If we gave them a free upgrade they are not able to see their original booking in the kiosk. (Original Room Catergory) which may confuse them.
