  1. Pre-check in via mews kiosk, before the room's ready

    While guest are awaiting for their room to be ready, we would like to allow them to start their check in on the Mews Kiosk App, even if the room is not inspected. Once the check in process will be done, guests can enjoy the hotel facilities and receive a notification when they can collect their keys once the room will be inspected.

  2. Skip card at Kiosk check in

    Add cash option or temporary skip option to check-in with the kiosk.
    We are trying to work Paperless, and the kiosk gives us this option. However, when someone pays cash we have to stop the entire check in process because we cannot proceed without card payment for the check-in.

  3. Kiosk Check-In with employee assignment

    Kiosk Check-In.

    If something happens during the guest's stay and we have to get in touch with our colleague who checked the guest in, it would be much easier if we have the option to choose the name of the employee who is checking in the guest.
    At this current state, when you check someone in via kiosk, the action log will say that "Mews Operator (Mews Kiosk)" has checked the guest in and not the name of the person!
    A suggestion for the matter would be to have the option to have a box on the dashboard listing the…

  4. Allow all guests to make 100% autonomous purchases on the mews kiosk at any time

    Add the functionality for guests to be able to use the Mews terminal to purchase any products from Mews by themselves without any intervention from our staff, at any time (from a list pre selected by us, as not all products should be purchasable by guests). Currently, the functionality is partially there but the guests can only add products to their reservations when doing the checkout, which is really annoying.

    Currently, each purchases made with the Mews Kiosk require manual intervention from our staff. We want guests to be 100% autonomous in their journey. They want something but our staff…

  5. Receive Notification about Mews Kiosk Check-Ins

    When a guest checks in via MEWS Kiosk we do not receive any information (mail?) about the check in. During the CI process a registration form is filled out and signed with all the necessary data for the registration to the city. All Registration forms of each day are digitally collected. Due to the CI via Kiosk it is hard for our receptionists to keep track of all the registration forms and collect them daily.

  6. Kiosk language should change automatically based on nationality / guest info

    Language depending on nationality, with the option for a manual override.
    if the nationality is set for a spain, language should change to spanish. The kiosk is guest forward. default language can be set, but a more individual approach would be good

  7. Customizable Kiosk Check-in Requirements

    It would be great to be able to customize the requirements for a Kiosk Check. This would allow us to collect information that is not part of any legal environment based on our location.

    Right now we ask guests to utilize the kiosk but when it cannot collect all the information we need for a check in it sits unused.

  8. Handle reservations from multiple bookable services via one kiosk

    Today it is not possible to guide your guests to one kiosk if you use multiple bookable services. This makes it unable to do check-ins for for example day-uses from the same kiosk as normal bookings. Resorts with one arrival reception can't use 1 kiosk to handle multiple services on their Resort. There are multiple use cases where this could be used.

    Allow all registered guests to sign a registration card. Right now only the main guest has that option but each person staying should have to sign and agree to terms and conditions. Specifically within the Co-Operator

  10. Disable check out button

    We are a hotel without a reception in house. Because we don't have any upselling during guest stays, we don't need any manual check out button at our kiosk. People are confused about check out button. Our guest only need to leave the apartment at a certain time and put the room card into a transparent box at the exit. It is written in our brochures and in the check out information which we give our guest with our confirmation mail. Therefore it confuses the people. Would be great if the check out button or online check out can be…

  11. Kiosk App Update Timing

    Update Timing Kiosk App: it would be very helpful to have a way of being able to determine the period in which the kiosk app receives its update? Since we have been using the app, it has repeatedly happened that the app receives an update just when guests have arrived and are waiting to be checked in. The update takes time which the guests do not have. So maybe it would be an idea to design it so that we as users of the app can decide when to download the current update - after we have received a message…

    It now says 'If you need a copy of your bill, please contact us', but we do it automatically whenever we have an email address

  13. Dramatically reduce check-in duration by asking only reservation owner data

    In short: we just need to register one person´s data.

    We try to speed up our self-check-in by encouraging online check-in in advance, however most of our guests do not check in online.
    Now, when they come to the hotel and check in through Operator Kiosk, it takes a long time to check-in (for example they struggle to find ö,ä,ü for their names). That time is then multiplied for each person staying, which is not necessary.
    We can cut self-check-in time in half by just not asking the companions´data, like we always do at the reception.
    This could be implemented…

  14. Add guests to checked in reservations via Operator

    It would make it easier to keep the checked in reservations at the bottom of the operator screen and allow us to select them and add a guest who checks in later than the rest so that they can complete the check in too. Now there is no option to collect their information without undoing the check in, and that is not viable as we then could loose previous guests' info and signatures.

  15. Handover between PMS and Kiosk: registration card on tablet

    When checking in guests "manually" it would be nice be be able to "force" a registration card to show up in the operator. Imagine walking to a check in desk, saying your name, and the receptionist makes your registration card appear on a tablet in front of you for you to fill in.
    It would connect the "kiosk" option from hostels, with the personal service of hotels.

  16. PIN CODE field in Mews

    It would be neat if the guests were able to check in on the kiosk and get their pin code there.
    Or have the pin code display directly in Mews.

  18. Payments Operator

    Would it be possible to charge or show the guests only the amount of the current stay. This is specially a request for the Mews Operator. The guests shouldn´t see any old or future payments.
