  1. Currently, as soon as you make a modification, to any mail template, you erase the default settings for the template - which is all fine and well if you want continue customising your template and understand how to do so.

    However from time to other you would like to go back to the original settings. Would it be an idea that the default button next to the template name, could be active, such that when you engage it, the template settings would revert to default ?

    One great thing with the default settings, is that all translations have already been…

  2. Could we also have dining options in rates setup, so that guests (and staff within comander) can choose from options like with / without breakfast / full board / half board to select rates? (of course with nice labels attached 😉 )

    For us, or in most city settings I believe, the major rate differentiations are non-ref vs. free cancellation and with vs. without breakfast ? Right?

    Also, the rate group system could be facilitated to achieve this. Once cancellation policies can be set at rate level, Rate Groups could be used to group board options together (all rates with…

  3. Currently we have a few services, such as bike rental, breakfast, and parking that can be added by the guests while making a reservation.

    However, there are certain situations where we do not want this option to be visible for the guests. An example is guests that come for a specific conference, who book through their own booking engine.

    It would be great if we can turn on/off bookable services for the specific booking engine when requested. We went through all settings, but are unable to find a way to do so.

  5. New Cancellation Tags Are confusing because they adjust dynamically based on the rate rules. What would be more useful is to be able to create a set of key tags that we can generate as the business to display on the room cards or rates when you have the selection of spaces. This would allow customers to make quicker choices and saving calling to understand what the room includes. Example tags for the room could be 'Hot Tub', or 'Has Lake View' or 'Includes Complimentary Minibar' or if these tags are applied at rate level then 'Non Refundable' or '50%…

  6. For hotels with multiple rooms with different occupancy rates, it would be very helpful if the search results in the booking engine would reflect the searched occupancy. Currently, this is not possible and rooms are always shown in the same order in the booking engine, no matter for how many people you want to book a room.

    Desired behavior: if you search for a room for 2 persons, 2-person rooms are shown at the top. But if you search for a 6-person room, the 6-person rooms should be shown at the top.

  7. When a reservation goes through Siteminder the booker information is not added in Mews. We have alot of reservations made by a booker for a guest, when the guest arrives we only have their name and the booked details are gone so if the booker wants to pay we have to add this information manually after finding it in siteminder. its all there we just need the information to be added into Mews as well.

  9. In an Enterprise environment with multiple properties, the BE should offer an alternative property if the selected property is not available. Thus offering the possibility to cross-sell rather than lose the booking.

  10. When we decided to use Mews, a big point was the booking engines features. When searching for a room for 3 or 4 persons, only rooms having 3 or 4 beds where shown for booking.
    Without telling anybody about the change, Mews now shows also rooms having pnly two beds and asked the guest to book more rooms. If a family wants to stay at our resort, the want a room/apartment having 3 or 4 beds, not 2 seperated apartments with 2 beds each. So please make it possible to change this. It's confusing for families 2 adults and 2…

  11. Let me give you an example to explain my problem : Let's assume we are only open on friday night and saturday night. If a client wants to book a 2 nights journey from friday to sunday, the first picture of the booking engine calendar seen by the client shows the day of friday and saturday in black colours but the day of sunday is greyed out. It's only when the client click on the day of friday that sunday will become black but a lot of clients don't even go to this step and call me saying that they…

  12. I realised that the Mews booking engine does not use labels for the form (first name, last name, email address, ...). Autofill won't work properly.

    Most browsers support autofill and I think Mews should make use of that. It will bring more convenience for guests.

    You can find more information on this topic here: https://web.dev/learn/forms/autofill/

  13. Currently, the city tax is not shown or added in the booking engine but only when guests have completed their booking. They then recieve a booking confirmation with a higher amount (city tax added on top of total booking amount), which causes a lot of questions. Therefore, the final amount (room + city tax) should be shown in the last step of the booking engine before the guests confirms the booking.

  14. When you check-in online you have to fill out your credit card details.
    In The Netherladns not a lot of people have a credit card, therefore a lot of people can not use this option.
    Is there a possibility to change this? Maybe by paying a deposit or just skip the credit card details?

  15. we would like to offer our breakfast online for campers. Due to the different VAT rates, 2 items must currently be posted (share of drinks, share of food). This is of course too cumbersome for the guest.

    Is there a way that I can create a product when the guest books (e.g. breakfast camping 15,-) and Mews automatically splits this booked service into two products?

  16. Have the T&Cs at the beginning of the booking engine journey. They are currently on the last page - which means customers must go through all the steps before knowing what they are signing up for.

  17. We should be able to create a booking engine for companies, where booking is only possible if you have a voucher code. This prevent guests withour a company agreement to book without giving credit card information.

  18. Currently, the only way how guest can find out about the restriction is when the restriction is applied across the entire property. If there's a different length of stay restriction attached to different space categories, the guest receives a "NO AVAILABILITY" message.

  19. Could we add a descriptive text to the landing page, so we can clarify any current promotions or restrictions? Ie. “Accepting reservations for Summer 2024 now” - anything that would help prevent guests from selecting date selections that are in a blackout or have particular restrictions (ie. we do not allow Saturday check-in, so selecting any dates that begin on Sat returns no availability).
