  1. It would be great to have confirmation emails sent per room category. At times, we have different directions/instructions per the category we have in Mews.

    This would allow us to personalize the communication to guests even further based on the room they booked.

  2. Currently, the bookable service mail templates are set for all guests depending on their booking status.

    For personalization of the guest journey it would help if we can sent a customizable mail to several rate groups. This way business guests can receive additional information relevant to them as well as leisure guest who book a specific rate group (hotel offer for example). It would be nice if we can choose the moment in the mail queue when the mail will be sent.

    One template would not suffice, it needs be able to be personalized for multiple rate groups. So perhaps…

  3. To enhance guest experience and returning guest recognition it is required to share guest data between properties. This includes guest historical stays, preferences and complaints for all properties and not just the local one. Staff should then be easily recognize that this guest already stayed in another property to maintain best guest service.

  4. Enhance the booking engine to intelligently display add-on products based on the inclusions of the selected rate. Specifically, prevent the display of the breakfast add-on when the chosen rate already includes breakfast.

    Background:
    Currently, our booking engine is configured to offer both rates including anf excluding breakfast, allowing guests to add breakfast as an optional extra if it is not included. This approach works well for rates not including breakfast. However, when a rate that includes breakfast is the only option presented, the system still displays breakfast as an add-on. This redundancy not only confuses guests but also undermines the…

  5. There should be the possibility that when over a period one rate is ending and another begins, a rate should still be displayed if one wants to book over that period.

    For example:

    Rate 1 is bookable until the 20th of December.
    Rate 2 is bookable from the 21st of December.

    Currently, if a guest wants to book from the 20th to the 21st of December, no availability and rate is displayed.

    It would be useful for to display a combined rate.
    The conditions and price of Rate 1 apply, and for the second day, the conditions and price of…

  6. Currently, if the free cancellation policy is set up after the check-in time, Mews booking engine doesn't display the correct hour after which the client will need to pay the cancellation fee. So for example, our corporate rate bookings are free to cancel until 6 pm on the check-in day. However, the booking engine displays that the cancellation is free up till 4 pm on the day of arrival because the check-in time is set at 4 pm. This is not accurate and the cancellation policy shown to the clients on the booking engine is less favorable than on other…

  7. If a company has more than one employee working from the same emaill address Mews will not allow us to create them as a guest/booker as the email address already exists. Can you create an option to override this?

  8. Could we also have dining options in rates setup, so that guests (and staff within comander) can choose from options like with / without breakfast / full board / half board to select rates? (of course with nice labels attached 😉 )

    For us, or in most city settings I believe, the major rate differentiations are non-ref vs. free cancellation and with vs. without breakfast ? Right?

    Also, the rate group system could be facilitated to achieve this. Once cancellation policies can be set at rate level, Rate Groups could be used to group board options together (all rates with…

    1. Handling of VIP's - being able to pull up a report of only Arrivals
      with certain Customer Classifications (mulitple-select-drop-down in
      reservation report with Customer Classification filter like Segments filter). Also being able to pull this via a Report like the Guest in house report.

    2. Disabled classification needs to be part of the Guests in House report
      for emergencies.

    3. Customer Classifications need to be a filtered in the Space status report for
      Housekeeping to identify special requirement rooms

  9. New Cancellation Tags Are confusing because they adjust dynamically based on the rate rules. What would be more useful is to be able to create a set of key tags that we can generate as the business to display on the room cards or rates when you have the selection of spaces. This would allow customers to make quicker choices and saving calling to understand what the room includes. Example tags for the room could be 'Hot Tub', or 'Has Lake View' or 'Includes Complimentary Minibar' or if these tags are applied at rate level then 'Non Refundable' or '50%…

  11. It would be great if we could choose the scheduling of the templates to the times we want. For example, Before Start email is 2 days in advance and we would like to have it 5 days in advance.
    At the moment this is set up by MEWS and can not be changed!

  12. To customize the guest journey for distribution partners, we would LOVE to see the ability to customize background images for individual booking engines for accommodations as well as for availability blocks. Not only will examples of this experience help get distribution partnerships over the finish line, but it will also create a custom and personalized experience for the relevant guests. Furthemore, it creates numerous opportunities for cobranding.

  14. When a guest e-mail address bounces, it would be helpful if and when a task is created in order to have a notification (and thus an actionable moment) for staff to verify and check the e-mail proactively, and not have the guest wait for an e-mail because of a typo...

  15. It would be great to be able to
    - setup public promotions / special offer campaigns like you can do on booking.com or expedia. Setup a special offer as a percentage or fixed amount discount based upon (a selection of) existing public rate, possibly with restrictions in terms of booking window and/or travel window, etc..
    - setup private discounts on (a selection of) existing rates with a promo code, for example a code returning guets can enter in the booking engine to access a returning booker discount on all rates ,...

  16. It would be idea to have guest arrival flight details and departure flight details in the reservation dashboard where the check in time is. Other PMS systems do have this option. We offer airport pickup and drop off so being able to generate a report with this information will be useful.

  18. In an Enterprise environment with multiple properties, the BE should offer an alternative property if the selected property is not available. Thus offering the possibility to cross-sell rather than lose the booking.
