Show alerts to inform about importan information to guest
It would be great if relevant information for specific times can be shown as an alert message in the booking engine.
Guest searches for a room during a certain periond and a message is getting shown, which is triggered by an either defined date range for the time of booking or time of stay.
This would be helpful for:
-restaurant closures during the time the guest does stay
-renovations going on in the hotel
-certain hotels services are not available during the staying period
-could also be used for advertising special events in the hotel1 vote -
Allow guests to edit personal data in new guest portal
Since the new guest portal release, once a guest has checked in they are no longer able to edit their personal details including phone number or credit card.
I'm not sure why this feature was removed? If a guest adds their info at the time of booking, it would be helpful if they can amend their own data if things were to change closer to their arrival time.1 vote -
Booker Flow: Allow Booker to Determine if They are Financially Responsible
Via The booker flow, it would be useful to offer a button that can help the guests determine who is truly financially responsible for the booking Booker Vs Staying Guest. In this manner, this can also help redirect the cost of the reservation more efficiently to the one truly responsible versus the fact that it always defaults to the booker account.
This flexibility can reduce some of the manual work on the team when they must correct the billing and find the real responsible party.

Datalayer with user data for 'Enhanced Conversion' on Google and Meta
Upon a completed booking, it would be helpful if MEWS creates a datalayer with the personal data from the booking (name, email, phone number, and country) that can subsequently be sent to Google and Meta as part of 'Enhanced Conversion' to better optimize advertising.

Sending emails from the demo environment
It is both good and bad that emails are not sent out from the demo environment. For example, it can be difficult to access your guest portal or check-in to test something if you haven't received a real email from the system.
Additionally, it is also a problem to test email templates if you choose to build them yourself because the code (HTML/CSS) generated by MEWS is not 100% consistent with the code you insert.Therefore, it would be helpful if you could either enable email sending in the demo environment, so you can test the flow 100%, or if…

Better editing tool and customization of email templates
The option for editing or customizing email templates today is not very good. The problem is that you either have to use the default template 100%, or you have to create the template from scratch in HTML/CSS. There is no middle ground if you just want to make small changes to the text in MEWS' default templates.
If you choose to build the email templates from scratch, you end up with a lot of HTML and CSS from MEWS that you can't avoid. For example, the logo appears at the top of the email along with some text at the…

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.

Notification when room status is changed
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.3 votes -
Online Check Out Tip and date at products
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.- there is no possibility to give a tip

Hotel Logo should be clickable to lead to hotel homepage
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.

"Booking Abandoned": Enable it for Availability Block Reservations Picked up in the BE
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.

Multi property booking engine
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.

Master/Mother Company
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.7 votes -
Improve SMS messaging
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…1 vote -

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..

Option to book more than one property
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.1 vote -
Require payment for service promotions added during online check-in
Mews users should be able to require payment for service promotions added during the online check-in process. For example, Guests at our property can add parking, a late checkout, and an early check-in during their online checkin process and each of these have a cost but payment is not required at the time this is added. The hotel is left with the service added, parking spaces reserved, and no payment method collected at the time the service was added. This happens with OTA reservations where Guest's physical cards are not provided by the OTA to the property.
We can require…
