Show original booked room type in guest communication (not upgraded type)
We are facing an issue that causes confusion for both our team and our guests.
Currently, when we send a manual confirmation email or when guests check in online, the current room type is displayed. This also happens when we grant a free upgrade. As a result:
…1. Guests get wrong expectations – Sometimes we need to change the room type back to the originally booked one (due to availability). Guests then feel disappointed or even complain, since they saw the “higher” room type in their confirmation or online check-in. 2. Guests get confused about pricing – For example, when1 vote -
Allow promo codes on multiple rate groups
In the booking engine we are offering the promo code option for direct bookers to receive instant discount. However this is only possible on 1 rate group, leading to stacked OTA (member) offers sometimes being more favorable.
It would be great if we can develop a way to link 1 promo code to 2 rate groups to prevent this from happening

Enhance Calendar Functionality in Booking Engine to Improve Guest Experience in the LLMs (such as ChatGPT) and Reduce Conversion Loss
Why this matters:
At the moment, LLMs (like ChatGPT) and meta search platforms tend to redirect users to OTAs like Booking.com instead of our direct Booking Engine. This shift is largely due to a suboptimal booking interface, which contributes to significant commission losses. Improving the calendar UX would not only support direct conversions but also make our engine more competitive in AI-driven booking flows.Description:
The current date-selection tool in the Mews Booking Engine lacks clarity and usability, which leads to guest confusion and booking abandonment. We'd like to propose the following improvements:A more intuitive calendar interface that allows…

MinLOS
When setting up a MinLOS, the booking enigne mentions "no availability".
This is misleading for guests since you can book, but only for 2 nights (in our example). There should be a pop up saying that there is a MinLOS for the requested date.2 votes -
Booker Confirmation email needs to be more concise for group bookings
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

Mail templates - dynamically derive from common master templaze
Currently consistent and easy branding of email templates is tedious.
But, I have an idea: there are some “mews” row templates within the template editor, could we get a way to create “property” or “enterprise” level rows? That way we could insert those master rows in the templates and have a central place to edit them all across the board.
same for some common settings, like font style or some other custom css properties that could be managed and edited from on place, like a master template/setting.the idea is to separate styling & branding from content.

guest chat information linked to guest profile
Mews is constantly improving the use of AI for guest profile. It seems very strange that you do not include all the information from the guests chats. Here it is typical last minute wishes coming in, like silent room, allergies ao.
If you are not able to push this directly in the AI info it is weird there is NO link at all from the reservation or the guest profile that this guest/reservation had a chat with important information - accessable also later.1 vote -

In today’s digital era, isn’t it time we broaden the ways we engage and communicate with our guests?
In today’s digital era, isn’t it time we rethink and expand the ways we communicate with our guests?
Relying solely on traditional channels like email and telephone may no longer align with how many travellers prefer to connect. From WeChat and Messenger to WhatsApp and other instant messaging platforms, guests increasingly expect to interact with hotels in the same seamless, real-time manner they use in their everyday lives.
If we truly aim to be guest-centric, we must meet them where they are, and not where we’re used to being.

promoted services
When choosing initial room guest can add promoted services. Once promoted service is added, if the guest wants to add another room from primary service ("+Add another item") promoted services are not offered any more.
It would be helpfull if promoted services are always offered when choosing the item from the primary service.3 votes -
Change the order of languages available in the kiosk
It would be useful to have the control over which order the languages are shown on the Kiosk.For example: in our properties, most customers are French, and French is way down the list. It would be great to have it as the second option in the language menu.

show the outstanding balance in the guest portal
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.

Only available times visible in booking engine
Only available time slots visible in booking engine on first page, not after you already have chosen a time slot on the first page (ie. if the service booked from 11-12 or 18-19, they would not be even as an alternative, but only times between 12-18 and 19-21 for example.

Kiosk check-in for grouped reservations: Check in summary email should go to the the each guest profile
Kiosk check-in for grouped reservations sends Check in summary email only to the reservation owner for all checked in rooms/guests in the group, even when additional guest create separate guest profiles while checking in on kiosk.
It would be great to send Check in summary email to the each guest profile created on kiosk during online/kiosk check in.5 votes -
Customize Payment Message for “Pay at Hotel” Bookings to Reflect Pre-Authorization Only
On the Mews Booking Engine, when guests choose the “Pay at Hotel” option, they are required to enter their credit card details for a pre-authorization (usually for the first night) as a guarantee. However, the interface still displays a “Proceed to Payment” button or message, which creates confusion and mistrust.
Many guests believe they are being charged immediately, and some abandon their booking altogether. This not only leads to a poor user experience but also reduces conversion rates.
We would like the ability to customize or replace the current message with something more accurate and transparent, such as:

Introducing a warning message when exiting the email builder

Review guest details in kiosk for recurring guests.
When a recurring guest arrives for check-in and finds his booking in the kiosk, he only has to authorize in the last step as his details are already known in our system. These details are not shown to the customer though. His Id or address might not be correct anymore so he is not sure which data he is authorising.
