  1. It would be nice to automatically set up notes in a reservationbased on ratecodes for example if an HB ratecode is booked that the note is added to ask for reservation time. Or if an product (ticket for event) is booked more information needs to be asked upon check in.

  2. Guests should be able to easily share Apple Wallet or Google Wallet digital key access with other guests on the same reservation.

    We’re finding this is a common frustration for couples, where both guests expect to have their own key. Requiring this to be set up during online check-in is too restrictive.

    Please make digital key sharing simple and available at any point during the stay .

  3. Het zou leuk zijn wanneer producten per weekend te boeken zijn, zoals bijvoorbeeld een valentijnspakket of een product dat alleen beschikbaar is in de kerstvakantie zonder dat er dan een nieuw arrangement voor moet worden aangemaakt.

  4. When a message is sent via property to a guest using the "Guest Portal" in the new Guest Messenger area, the guest receives no notification a message is waiting for them. This causes the message to be missed and defeats the purpose of this platform. It ONLY works if the guest is currently in their portal or following up on a previous enquiry that they see/read the message. It would be great to send an email to the guest if they do not read the message after a certain time so properties have confidence messages are being seen by guests.

  5. Bonjour, nous souhaiterions recevoir le double de la facture proforma automatiquement sur notre adresse mail. En pdf de préférence. Plutôt que d'avoir à nous ajouter manuellement dans la facturation. Notre ancien logiciel le faisait et nous souhaiterions retrouver cette option. Merci par avance.

  6. We would like to have a solution for the automatic check-in from MEWS as follows:

    For guests who have completed online check-in, Mews will automatically check in the unit.
    For guests, who have not done the online check-in, have to do it in kiosk upon arrival.
    At the moment we have a lot of guest communication and misunderstanding, why it is not possible to check-in in kiosk after set arrival time (in our case 3PM).
    Thanks!

  7. Hotels currently miss a valuable opportunity to enrol guests into their loyalty programme during the digital check-in journey, particularly guests who booked through an OTA or have little interaction with reception staff.

    As Online Check-in, Kiosk and Digital Keys become more widely used, hotels and motels are also losing one of the traditional front-desk touchpoints where staff would naturally recognise existing members, explain loyalty benefits and encourage non-members to join.

    It would be great if Mews Online Check-in and Kiosk could include an optional, configurable loyalty recognition and enrolment step.

  9. Add a Nationality dropdown, similar to the Gender dropdown or an autofill - people are skipping this detail as they don't know the 2-country code.

    Allow an updated Rooming List to overwrite/re-upload the existing rooming list rather than manually changing each guest.

    For group bookings, the downloaded Rooming List should keep the Role column as “Guest” for all rooms/beds, rather than defaulting everyone to “Owner”. This avoids having to manually change each row back to “Guest” to ensure the existing room/reservation names remain unchanged.

  10. Bei der Konfiguration der Meldescheine stößt das System aktuell an deutliche Grenzen. Laut Mews sind die Standardeinstellungen an die jeweiligen landesspezifischen Vorgaben angepasst – dies entspricht jedoch nicht der Praxis.

    In Österreich ist die Erfassung der Daten aller Mitreisenden gesetzlich zwingend vorgeschrieben. Im Mews-Standard wird diese Abfrage jedoch nicht standardmäßig durchgeführt. Manuelle Anpassungen führen wiederum häufig zu Nebeneffekten, wie dem ungewollten Überspringen anderer notwendiger Datenfelder.

    Anforderung / Lösungswunsch:
    Wir benötigen eine flexible, allgemeine Einstellungsmöglichkeit für Meldescheine. Jeder Betrieb sollte die Erfassungsfelder – unabhängig vom Standort – individuell und verlässlich an die eigenen betrieblichen und rechtlichen Anforderungen anpassen können.

  11. Problem:
    Citybox uses custom-built self-service kiosks for guest check-in and checkout. These kiosks are integrated with the PMS through the API and perform several guest-facing actions without involvement from front office staff.

    A key limitation today is that when a guest checks out through our kiosk using the API, the final bill/receipt is not automatically sent to the guest by email.

    As a result, guests frequently contact the hotel after checkout to request their receipt. Hosts then need to manually locate the reservation, generate the final bill, and send it by email. Across our properties, this creates unnecessary manual work…

  12. It would be great if we could introduce a cut-off time for services booked during online check-in. Sometimes guests check in on the same day, only a few hours before their arrival, which means we at the front desk may not have enough time to prepare the requested services in advance

  13. Business Impact
    Properties in jurisdictions with multiple taxes and fees have a cluttered booking experience. Displaying many individual tax lines can overwhelm guests and increase booking friction.

    Customer Problem
    On the Booking Engine, taxes are currently displayed as itemized line items. Some properties would prefer to show a single summarized tax amount by default, with the option for guests to expand and review the detailed breakdown only if desired.

    Desired Solution
    Add a Booking Engine setting that allows properties to choose between:

    • Expanded tax itemization (current behavior)
    • Collapsed tax summary displaying a single total
    • Optional expand/collapse control for viewing detailed…

  16. The new Mews Mail Template Editor is a great step forward, and we would very much like to replace our legacy HTML templates with it.

    Unfortunately, the current way prices are presented prevents us from doing so. In its current form, the pricing information lacks the level of transparency guests expect and creates unnecessary confusion. We believe the following improvements are essential.

    1. Display nightly rates

    At present, each room only shows the total accommodation price.

    With dynamic pricing now being the industry standard, nightly rates often vary significantly. Showing only the total amount makes it impossible for guests to understand…

  17. Currently, guests scanning passports/ID need to use the rear camera to capture. However, why can't the same work for the front-facing camera? We use iPads for the Mews Kiosks, and we ideally want to mount these in a way that the rear camera is inaccessible to users i.e. wall mounted. Can we please enable the ability to select the front-facing camera or rear camera in settings for properties to choose?

  18. Now there is the possibility in Mews for upselling, for offering products to customers and for service promotions. This is confusing for those handling the set-up for the online check-in.

  19. Problem:
    The Booking abandoned email sends even when the guest has already completed a successful booking. The usual cause is a payment retry. A card is declined, the guest immediately books again with a different card, and the first attempt still auto-cancels as abandoned minutes later. The email then tells a confirmed guest to finish booking, and some guests reasonably conclude that the reservation being referenced is the good one they just made.

    A recent example from our property. The first attempt was created at 7:27 PM and payment did not complete. The guest rebooked successfully at 7:33 PM. The…

  20. To improve the member recruitment process in Mews, specifically regarding rejected Loyalty program registrations, I propose implementing more detailed error feedback then a member has been denied Strawberry- membership.

    The current system only indicates that the guest could not be registered for the Loyalty program, and not why it has been denied. But by including specific reasons for rejection, such as "Wrong format on phone number," "Guest is already a member," or "Missing address information," users would gain a clearer understanding of the issue. In this way, it will be easier to fulfil the registration when the user knows why…
