Mews Kiosk Reporting
We need to be able to do a proper reporting on the Kiosk Check In, including following categories:
Check in from Kiosk (Staff Mode)Check ins from Kiosk (Guest Mode)
Check ins via Mews Commander
Moreover, we need to be able to pull the data via the API regarding if a reservation did online check-in, check-out, did they use the Kiosk or did a staff member check them in.
This is cruciel to be able to measure the success of the kiosk and to do further improvements.

Staff kiosk check out mode with overall tip option
When showing an unbalanced invoice with all charges /items through that staff mode feature, it would be highly advantageous if guests had the option to add a tip—say 10%, 15%, or 20%—directly to the invoice. Once selected, the tip would be automatically added to the total bill.

Show that room is still occupied in check-in screen
the employees at the front office who process early check-ins and therefore check the room status often start the check-in process because the room status is inspected, yet only because the room is not yet checked out. Only at check-out room status moves to dirty.
Unfortunately, the pop-up on the tablet (Kiosk in staff mode) that the room is not ready for occupancy only comes after the guest has entered their data and signed.
Would be great if there would be a sign if the room is still occupied, in the check-in screen or if the room moves to dirty…

Signature for accompanying persons Optional
Signature for accompanying persons Optional
Since the update in July 2024, MEWS Kiosk asks for the signature of all travelling persons. As the data is usually filled in by the main booker and is not required by law, I agree that the signature for accompanying persons can be set to fixed, optional or not required as required.
In addition, it makes little sense to ask for this data for small children etc..

Make kiosk data entry requirements the same as for online check-in
Only request necessary data
At the moment, the Austrian online check-in only asks for the data that is actually required by the authorities. In the kiosk, however, all data of all persons including address are requested. You should also set the same requirements in the kiosk as in the online check-in.2 votes -
Kiosk Screensaver
At the moment the Kiosk Screensaver welcomes guest in different langueges for Check In. I think it would be more intuitive to tell guest just in englisch to check in and check out at the Kiosk.

Mews Kiosk Verbesserung der Deutschen Übersetzung
Manchesmal könnten die Gästeanweisungen des Kiosk besser formuliert sein mir ist aufgefallen:
Checkout fragt nach Raumtyp statt Zimmernummer
Check in fragt nach Kennung statt Ausweis
Und der Screensaver ist in diversen Sprachen nur mit Check In ein Allgemein verständlicherer Screensaver wäre sicher besser zb Check In & Check Out1 vote -
Mews Kiosk Product Translation
The Mews Kiosk currently only displays bookable products in the default language of the accommodation, regardless of the language selected at check-in.
It should be easy to implement the use of existing translations in the kiosk, as is already the case in the booking engine and online check-in. For a good guest experience, it is important that the entire guest journey can be implemented in multiple languages.

Change the amount of Guest on Kiosk
The property may need to ensure that all guests' information is filled during check-in due to regional requirements. Due to that, should any plans change from reservation creation to check-in regarding guest count, guests can't successfully check in if they initially booked for 2 people but only 1 person was able to show up.
Make it possible to change occupation (guest count) on the kiosk last minute.

Customize Mews Kiosk
Yet it is not possible to customize Mews Kiosk App in the tone of voice that matches our brand. Meaning how we speak to the customers cant be set in Mews Kiosk. This is absolutely mandatory to match the brand standards

Kiosk check-in- Guest details
Due to New Zealands legal environment we cannot turn off the requirement for the details of every guest staying in a room when checking in via the kiosk.
As you can imagine if a guest books a three bedroom ********* for her and the children she doesn't want to spend all the time required to fill in details for each of her children just to proceed with the check in. We as a property also do not require this.
We no longer use kiosk for this reason as guests become too frustrated.

Kiosk ID/Passport scanner
We use the passport scanner / ID scanner when we check our guests in at our hotel, it makes the check-in process so much easier for us and the guests. When we started using the scanner, the German ID cards worked the best, but now they don't work at all and the scanner just keeps loading.
Please fix this soon.3 votes -
Kiosk check-ins can only happen after set check-in / arrival time
It would be great if the kiosk could be configured to not allow check-ins before the arrival time as configured in Stay settings.
Currently guests can check in using the kiosk at any time, so long as the room is set to inspected. We would prefer it if guests attempting to check using the kiosk in before the set arrival time were directed to the reception desk. I think this is how the kiosk used to function before the recent major update.

Different products available in Kiosk vs Guest Portal (online check-in)
It would be useful is the Kiosk and the Guest Portal (online check-in) could display different products. Currently they use the same list of promoted products. This causes a problem at times when the hotel is unmanned and the guest checks in and adds a product (e.g. a birthday celebration pack) but there are staff onsite to deliver it to them. It is fine when they are doing online check-in as there is time before they arrive to prepare the product.

Allow hotels to decide if e-mails should be default at the kiosk
Let the hotels decide if the guest's e-mail should be optional instead of default at the kiosk.
Since it's not a legal requirement in DK it's critical for us that we cannot change it in the "Check-in form"

Allow all guests to make 100% autonomous purchases on the mews terminal at any time
Add the functionality for guests to be able to use the Mews terminal to purchase any products from Mews by themselves without any intervention from our staff, at any time (from a list pre selected by us, as not all products should be purchasable by guests). Currently, the functionality is partially there but the guests can only add products to their reservations when doing the checkout, which is really annoying.
Currently, each purchases made with the Mews Terminal require manual intervention from our staff. We want guests to be 100% autonomous in their journey. They want something but our staff…

cash
Add cash option or temporary skip option to check-in with the kiosk.
We are trying to work Paperless, and the kiosk gives us this option. However, when someone pays cash we have to stop the entire check in process because we cannot proceed without card payment for the check-in.2 votesHello from the Mews product team.
