  1. Imagine this situation:
    Guests are early for CI and waiting for their room to be ready. This room could then be marked as "notify me about status change".
    When housekeeping changes the room status to "inspected" a notification is sent to the front office.
    Then they can call the guests and they can check in as early as possible.

  2. There would be two useful improvements to the online check-out of guests.
    1. the date is not shown for additional services. For example, the guest has consumed 10 beers in 10 days. However, the guest only sees 10 beers in the online check-out. Not when he has consumed which beer. This can sometimes lead to confusion.

    1. there is no possibility to give a tip

  3. When people are entering from e.g. Google Hotel Ads the landing page is always the distributor link (technically it is not possible to link the ads to the widget integrated booking engine)

    Problem then is that users can not go to the homepage of the hotel directly.

    It is a learned & normal website usability that logos are clickable and lead to the homepage if a website.

    For me it is a must have.

  4. There exists a "Booking Abandoned" flow (the 15mins offset) in the booking engine configuration. However, this flow does not apply to Availability Block Reservations picked up via that same booking engine link. It would be great to consider the same rule for these types of reservations as well.

  5. I want the action of the key creation to display in the action log; this gives us the possibility of when and by who keys were cut for a specific reservation.

  6. Create a multiproperty booking engine where guests can find availability and prices for multiple properties in the same city / region / country by querying on stay dates. Currently a specific property needs to be selected, resulting in a tedious process (with 7 properties in 1 city for example) resulting in low conversion and churn.

  7. We would like to be able to mark a Mother Company as a Mother Company, to be able to sort and search only for Mother Companys.
    This Mother Company should not be treated as a regular Company Account, as it is a Master which combines the regular Companys.
    Further we need to be able to differentiate between Mother Companys and regular Companys not only in Mews, but in the API as well.

  8. The SMS Service Add on Subscribtion is a good Idea, but it might can be improved as following:
    1.) The way this product add-on is being priced is not a good fit for smaller hotels. Why can't there be pure pay-as-you go model, maybe with a higher individual SMS charges, but only on the acutal volume sent? I mean, the cary over that remains from the 50 € each month for us cannot ever be consumed...
    2.) Track clicks: currenty there is no way to know if the sent sms messages are actually improving online check-in rates. It would be…

  9. 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…

  11. 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..

  12. The idea is that when a guest books one of our properties, he will be asked if he wants to book another as well.
    E.g. A guest books a stay in Vienna. After the booking was completed he gets ask if he wants to book a stay in Munich as well and when clicking on it he gets directly to the booking engine of the other property.

  14. We want to restrain the possibility of the selection language in the Mews booking engine. For example, we only want that the client can utilize the English and Español version.
    Can you develop a function (check box in a list for example) which permit that ?
    Thank you for listening to our request.

  15. Booking gaps should be automatically overridden by the MLOS. For example, if the MLOS is 5 but there is a gap of 3 or 1 night, it should be automatically bookable. This is especially important for smaller properties with individual room categories.

  16. It would be good to have a template for each rate. It was already mentioned but having more freedom with email templates in terms of adding more template options by hotels based on their own needs, as selection now is very limited.

    Mews seems to be a trying something new and making things simpler for guests and staff, but there are certainly some fields to be improved.

  18. As the title says, right now you have the option for Customer & Booker, Booker, or None. we would like to see Customer as an option. sometimes we need to confirmations to just go to the customers, and not spam our bookers with the confirmation and cancellation emails.

  19. 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.

  20. 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.
