  1. Online check-out emails are currently sent at 5pm day before arrival. For properties with high focus on a relaxed luxury experience this has caused negative guest reactions. Ex a guests checks-in at 4.30pm, for a 1 night getaway and on their way to the spa 30min later they get a an email prompting online check-out. Whilst it may seem efficient it might not be a relaxing guest experience. In addition, properties with a high capture rate for dinner would not want to push their guest to take actions before dinner charges has been added to the bill. The ability to…

  2. many a time we type in a guest surname only to get a blank result. unless you type in the first name of a guest, you are getting a wrong outcome.
    this is absolutely vital for us as many times you get a family name to look for and not the first name of a guest. you are then either saying the guest is not in-house or you don't know it is a return guest.
    not very good for the guest's journey...

  3. Hi - Self Check in has a maximum amount of times that it is possible to use ?! As it seems. Quote 100 has been reached for a regular guest of ours and he can not use the service anymore. The service self check in not usable anymore for that particular guest staying as often as he does. Is this correct ?

  4. 99% of guests in the US and Canada do not travel with their passport. Therefore Mews ID scanner doesn't work in this region. Properties are looking for ways to automate their check-in and checking ID/Driver's License is absolutely crucial.

    Scanning IDs and DLs is a needed feature in North America.

    Properties should also be able to make this a mandatory step if a guest wants to check in on a kiosk.

  5. Under Internals there is currently only one Classification to select and that is 'Loyalty program'.

    This is too generic, and doesn't indicate which program the member belongs to (Accor has three distinct loyalty programs) as well as which membership tier or level the guest is currently at (are they entry-level or a mega VIP platinum or diamond member)?

    I would like to recommend that on the Profile screen that Files and Merge be moved down and a dedicated section for Loyalty be added, that can be fully customisable to the hotel's needs. This way we can have all programs and…

  7. As the 'Mail Templates' section is already limited, a lot of HTML and other code is needed for the formatting of emails. Please give us the option within the Mail Templates section to send a test email to a custom email address.

    Now you can actually see all the preview of emails within the customization of emails.

  8. Digital signature for registration cards in the main Mews system.

    Kiosks or pre-arrival is great, but this feature is really needed in all devices. Our teams are equipped with ipads and MS Surface laptops. For them not having this feature and having to drag the guest to the kiosk does not gives the right impression. Especially for guests who failed to check in at kiosk for whatever reason.

  9. As it seems, the QR code is only readable from Ipones (IOS) and not readable on Androids at the moment. Since Android still has a huge marketshare, this would be a big improvement for guests and hosts.

    Hello from the Mews product team.

    We have marked this request as ‘released’ as the Mews Kiosk can read QR codes from Android devices.

    Thank you again for sharing your feedback with us!

  10. The software in Mews that reads ID data works much better than the one that does the same work in the kiosk app. In the kiosk app you have to enter some of the data manually, which is not necessary when scanning ID in Mews. The only problem with scanning the ID in Mews is that the system cannot find the camera it needs right away.

  11. Online check-out rules to be changed to allow higher adoption rates:

    • Allow hotels to set time for 'online check-out invitation' email

    Currently online check-out is sent at 17h00 on the day before check-out. Guests arriving after 17h00 (majority in many corporate destinations) and only staying 1 night don't receive the email invite due to this fixed time

    • Allow guest profiles with "company" attached to their profile to check-out online. Currently not possible according to your team due to strict taxation rules? I don't see why this should be a problem. And it's specifically "corporate guests" who want to avoid lines…

  12. Currently the QR code is automatically attached to confirmation email and cannot be removed. It's confusing for our guests as they don't know why we have this attachment on their confirmation email.
    An hotel can prefer to communicate about their online check-in than checking in on a Kiosk. I would prefer if you could hotel choose.

    Hi Mewsers!
    You can now disable the QR code from all guest-facing emails through the Settings.

    To do so, please navigate to Settings > Services > Stay > Options and make sure that you don’t have “Enable QR code in emails” option selected.

    If the option is disabled, placeholder in the body email is ignored and won’t be shown in the email body, neither the QR code attachment.

    Have a great day,
    Aneta

  13. Adding date of birth by a guest is not very intuitive at the moment. Almost every guest is taking quite some time to figure it out. So request to make this filling in more logical and intuitive.

    Hello from the Mews product team and thank you for your suggestion! We can confirm that email is an optional field in Kiosk (formerly Operator) as well as during the Online Check-in. So guests are able to skip entering the email for any children in their group.

  16. Currently customer added email can be disabled only in GA, for all guest. If a property is using a third party integration for guest journey (for certain guests), it would create duplicate emails and guest will receive too many mails.
    Would it be feasible to decide for each reservation if customer added email should be sent?

  17. When you export customer profiles to excel, the field 'language' is not added. So I need to filter on postal code to know which language the customer speaks. Which is totally incorrect.
    Please add the field 'language' to the excelfile guest profiles.

    Hi Nick,

    Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. Did you know that because overbooking’s have not been allocated to a specific space you can find them in the reservations report by grouping by space?

    There is a recorded overview of exactly how you can use this functionality in the link below:
