  1. When guests are filling out mandatory fields in the booking engine, such as their phone number, they can fill out a number that does not exist and the booking engine will accept this as a phone number (e.g. just the number "0").

    It would be helpful if the booking engine would recognize phone numbers as a valid phone number, so we have all contact details we may need from the guest after they make the booking.

  2. Display guest messages and internal messages apart, or at least in a different color, so you cannot reply a guest with an internal message by mistake.

  4. Improve Guest Messaging Feature so it only indicates a NEW/UNREAD message for messages that were not read and or replied to by another team member, as it distracts from other things that may be a higher priority at the start of someone's shift. I can see having all messages coming up as new and unread for members of the management team to see how people are communicating back and forth with guests, but for the average front desk or housekeeping associate, it looks like unanswered requests. In the least do something that shows a difference between UNREAD/UNREPLIED to messages that…

    Hello from the Mews product team. Thank you for your suggestion, we have updated your request and set it as one to be upvoted by the Mews Community. Remember you can share a link to your request so that your colleagues can also upvote your suggestion.

  5. Vouchers can be associated with companies or travel agencies (instead of being public). However, currently, when a voucher is used to book a reservation, there is no voucher information or company / travel agency information attached to that reservation in Mews.

    It would be very helpful if company / travel agency and voucher codes could be attached to reservation data and if those voucher-based reservations can be searched for through the reservations reports.

  6. After the booking is complete, the confirmation back page does not show the guest name. It would be nice if it can show this information. As of now, it only shares the confirmation number, check in dates, price, and room type.

    It would be helpful to show the name of the guest as well.

  7. After booking, it would be nice if there was an option to send the confirmation details (including name of guest) to a secondary email as well.

    This is similar to airline bookings where you can send booking confirmation to additional email addresses afterwards as well, such as a company admin, additional family members, etc.

  8. Could you please do something about special characters in the name of the guest ?
    When it's a self check in it can have sometimes special characters and so the order to creat a key on the key encoder is not working.

  10. To have the possibility to set a minimum required information for new reservations booked trough the booking engine: that every room booking requires name, phone number and email address of one of the staying guest.

  12. 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.

  13. Instead of listing the total price for multiple nights, which often averages out to include messy cents, list each nightly rates for the length of their stay so the pricing is clean.

  14. We need to be able to edit the term "categories" - my hotel is 13 rooms and they're all unique so they're all their own categories and users, when they are invited to explore other rooms with availability it reads "other categories with availability" which to the user makes no sense. One simple field in the back end for how to refer to "categories" would make a huge difference for our business.

  15. With the latest functionality updates we do no longer have the company/travel agent vouchers available from the voucher option in Mews when making a new booking.

    Company/Travel agent bookings should now be made without specific voucher and only using the relevant company/travel agent profile.

    IDEA;
    1: Let the hotels be able to enable/disable this functionality! Since this functionality might not be a positive change for all properties.

    or:

    2: Provide a drop down so when making a booking you can choose EITHER public/company or Travel agent

    REASON:
    A: It is crucial for us to be able to search on ALL…

  16. We need more customization options in the mail templates. To create a new template and choose when it is sent would be greatly beneficial. We also need more options to customize the existing templates, we should be able to use all existing placeholders in all emails, so for example we could include just arrival date or number of guests, without departure date and rate.

  20. 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.
