Show availibility even if there is a stay length restriction
Currently the News Booking engine will show NO availivility for a full month when you click a date on a calendar that has no availability and a two night stay restriction.This is very misleading for someone trying to book as it show the full month is booked. Mews needs to fix this.

rates on booking engine
We offer a special 28 days rate. However based on the booking engine capabilities, this 28 day rate only shows up when someone looks to book for exactly 28 days. We need something on the booking engine that allows for a contextual note when someone searches, for example, 15 days, that there is a better price if you book 28 days

Customize the product order in the booking engine
I wanted to highlight the importance of being able to customize the order of products in the booking engine. When you have a large number of listings, it should be possible to manually choose which products appear at the top and are therefore shown to guests first.
This would be a valuable feature for properties that want to prioritize certain products

Staatsangehörigkeit als Pflichtfeld in der Booking Engine
Da die Meldepflicht für Staatsbürger desselben Landes seit 01.01.2025 entfallen ist, müssen wir als Hotel keinen Meldeschein mehr unterschreiben lassen. Daher ist es zwingend erforderlich, die Staatsangehörigkeit schon im Buchungsvorgang abzufragen. Daher bitten wir euch umgehend, dass wir einstellen können, dass die Staatsangehörigkeit zum Pflichtfeld in der Booking Engine wird.

Product-display Control Across Different Booking Engines
We need the ability to control which products are shown in the different booking engines, instead of having the same setup across all channels.
Some of our partners use their own booking engine and offer special products. Therefore, we want to decide which products they can access and sell, while keeping others exclusive.

No repetition of information
Do not ask for data that is already known (e.g., from a previous step or URL parameters). This also applies to the selected dates.
Avoid making visitors fill out the same form multiple times

Context-aware flow in the booking engine
From the package page → package preselected in the booking module, going directly to room selection. In this flow, the package comes before choosing a room type.
If someone selects a package with limited availability (such as the Easter package), it is important that this can be passed along so that a visitor can only select the valid dates for that package from the main domain.
From the room page → room preselected, with packages prominently displayed as optional add-ons (possibly in a separate step). At the moment, the packages are somewhat hidden.
The selected product should always remain visible…

Remplacer "Vous allez payer" (faux) par "Total de votre réservation" (vrai)
Sur l'interface de saisie des informations de carte bancaire il faut remplacer "Vous allez payer" par "Total de votre réservation" parce beaucoup d'hôtels ne demandent pas le paiement immédiat de la réservation.

Link Vouchers to Specific Booking Engine Configurations
When creating vouchers, the “Booking engine URL” link on the voucher detail page always redirects to the property’s default Booking Engine configuration. For properties using multiple Booking Engines (e.g., one with rate comparison enabled and one without, or different configurations), it would be extremely helpful to have the ability to link a voucher to a specific Booking Engine configuration. This would allow more precise control over the guest experience

Allow guests to choose their room number
It would be useful to allow guests to choose their own room number, especially frequent guests who often have this type of requirement

Let customers enter a promo code on the rate page
Have a space to be able to add the promotion code on the rate page if customers have missed the initial search stage of the booking process.

Booking Engine: Reduce Cart Abandonment by Shortening the Booking Journey
Current Flow >> Guests go through multiple steps:
""Dates → Room Selection → Rates + Upsell → Summary → Details → Payment Confirmation""
*Extra Pages create more opportunities for guests to drop off.
*For example, the Summary page seems to act as an extra confirmation step before entering guest details and payment.
*Fewer clicks and transitions mean less friction and fewer chances for abandonment.
*Combining certain pages/elements might also have a better customer experience.2 votes -
implement a “+ / –” button so guests can select the desired quantity of certain products
It would be a great idea to implement a “+ / –” button in the Mews Booking Engine, allowing guests to select the desired quantity of certain products.
At the moment, products such as “baby cot”, “gym access”, or “room upgrade” are usually added as one unit, which makes perfect sense. However, for other types of products like soft drinks, mineral water, or snacks, the system still defaults to one unit, even though guests may want to purchase multiple quantities (e.g., 7 cans of Coca-Cola and 6 bottles of mineral water).
Adding a simple “+ / –” quantity selector next…2 votes -
Reservation with option dates
Wenn wir potentiellen Gästen mehrere Zimmer offerieren wollen, wäre es cool, dass jedes Zimmer im E-Mail einzeln gebucht werden kann. Also das man entscheiden will ob es ein Gast ist mit einem Zimmer aber er möchte verschiedene Zimmeroptionen, oder ob es eine Anfrage ist mit mehreren Zimmern, welche dann alle bestätigt werden (so ist es im Moment). Es wäre sehr Hilfreich, damit der Gast nicht 4-5 verschiedene E-Mails erhält und direkt buchen kann, wenn ihm eine Zimmerkategorie gefällt.

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

When making a reservation as booker, you should have the ability to choose wether or not guest receives an email confirmation
When making a reservation as a booker, there should be an option to determine whether the guest receives an email confirmation or not. This flexibility is particularly important for personal assistants (PAs) and corporate bookers who manage travel arrangements on behalf of others.
In many cases, PAs prefer to handle all communication with the guest directly, ensuring consistency in information and maintaining control over the booking details. Automatically sending a confirmation from the property can sometimes cause confusion, especially if the guest was not involved in the booking process or if additional arrangements need to be communicated separately.
Providing bookers…

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.3 votes -
Error with Parent and Child Space Setup in Booking Engine
In the current Booking Engine, there is a confusing issue with how parent and child space categories are handled. Guests are able to select all beds (child spaces) within a dorm (parent space) and also select the dorm itself. However, when attempting to finalize the reservation, the system displays the following error:
"We're very sorry, the highlighted categories are not available for the selected dates. Please select another category to proceed with your booking."
This occurs because the system allows the selection of both parent and child spaces simultaneously, but fails validation only at the final step. This behavior is…
