  1. Include cancellation policies in reservation confirmation email

    Would be great if cancellation policies can be added in reservation details mentioned in booking confirmation received by customer.
    Like this, he is fully aware of specific cancellation policies, even if booking directly with hotel via phone or email.

  2. Turn off emails sent to Booking reservations

    It would be great to be able to turn off auto emails from Mews to the reservations made via our direct connection with Booking. The guests receive these emails, thinking they are from Booking, which confuses them.

  3. Verification (3DS) email

    The email our guests receive state “ "We can't process your payment for Merlet until it has been verified. Unfortunately, if it's not verified in 24 hours, your order could be canceled" we think is is not very welcoming, especially in these challenging times. Is is possible to personalize or change this message?.

    Hi all, currently this email is not customizable. Would you maybe benefit from:

    1. Email being customizable
    2. Email to change the wording
    3. New solution where the guest will be able to e.g. swap a card or re-try payment attempt

    If your answer is under 3. please reach out to me and I can add you to the beta access of this feature. If not, happy to review other suggestions!

    Thanks,
    Product team

  5. cancelation of booker

    I would like a new model templates. I need the cancellation of booker.

    When the booker cancel the room for their boss, collegue or trainee it's impossible to send us the confirmation of cancellation.

    It's easy for you to do that quickly.
    Thank you

  7. Mews "Profile creation/Customer added" email - Template

    When a new guest file is created, the following mail is automatically sent to the guest. From my point of view there are the following possibilities for improvement:
    - The mail should be written more individually (ex. salutation and other text). It would be helpful if there is a separate template for this.
    - If the Pre-Arrival Mailing is activated, then the guest gets several mails. It would therefore be helpful if the reference to the new guest index is inserted in the pre-arrival mail.

    Below is the current text, which is always sent automatically to the guest when a…

  9. Omnichannel communication in Mews

    Guest can use the channel of his choice to start communication with the property. (Email, Mews chat, OTA chat, WhatsApp, Messenger). The property receives and replies to all messages in one place - in Mews. The room for error is minimized as all conversation happens at 1 place. Answering is also faster.

  10. Reservation Confirmation Details

    To be able to choose which fields are visible in the reservation confirmation. It would be great to uncheck some of the values, such as rate name or product for certain costumers, but currently you can only delete the entire row (reservation detail) which is not an option.

  11. Default email language

    Right now as we know Booking.com guests are assigned unique Alias emails for communication/profiles. If a guest receives a confirmation email (despite the property being in German for example) the email is automatically sent in English as Mews will by default sent it in English to any profile that does not have a language associated to it.

    This is despite the property being in a German environment.

  12. Optional: Charge success (Payment e-mail receipt) after payment

    Guests complain sometimes that there are too many e-mails before arrival. When we ask, was there anything they found really unnecessary, they often refer to payment receipt e-mail. It doesn't even include the invoice. When booking, they accept the terms and know the payment will be taken from cc. Mostly they have also instant notification from bank to phone. Can we make this e-mail optional, please? Would be perfect if client can choose this option.

  15. Removing products from confirmations STR

    If a property works heavily with packages, the confirmation clients receive are not aesthetically pleasing. All products are listed in the confirmation and it is not ideal.
    Can we remove this from the confirmation?

  16. Email Templates Based on Day Of Week Arrival (to inform about upcoming events)

    The ability to send out customized emails based on the day of the week a guest is arriving.

    As a hotel that offers different events and tours during the week, we want to be able to notify a guest prior to their arrival with information that is pertinent to their stay & experience only.

    Ie:
    Guest is arriving monday.
    They get email telling them about Monday Night Event, Tuesday Day Event, Tuesday Evening Event.

    Guest arriving on Wednesday.
    They get email telling them about Wednesday Night Event, Thursday Day Event, Thursday Evening Event.

  17. Automatic reminder and cancellation e-mails should be to booker, not guest.

    Now, the automatic reminder and cancellation e-mails are send to the guest and not the booker. Even if the guest has no e-mail, the booker (or anybody else) does not receive an automatic reminder and cancellation. As we have a agreement with the booker and not with the guest, it should be the booker who must receive the automatic reminder and cancellations. Now, bookings are being canceled automatically (when not reconfirmed before the deadline), without notifying the booker, who did originally receive the confirmation. This is a major flaw of MEWS. The booker should receive automatic reminders and cancellations!

  18. confirmation e-mail text

    When sending a confirmation e-mail to booker I see strange information:
    I see a line called "owner": owner of what. In most hotels there are guests staying in hotel, not owners.
    Owner of what ?
    Same "mistake" is seen in other languages.
    Please allow that hotel changes widget or do keeping in mind that our business is about people and things. Thank you.
