  1. Booking gaps should be automatically overridden by the MLOS. For example, if the MLOS is 5 but there is a gap of 3 or 1 night, it should be automatically bookable. This is especially important for smaller properties with individual room categories.

  2. 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.

  3. As the title says, right now you have the option for Customer & Booker, Booker, or None. we would like to see Customer as an option. sometimes we need to confirmations to just go to the customers, and not spam our bookers with the confirmation and cancellation emails.

  4. We manage several holiday rental units and the different space categories have different addresses in two different cities.
    Currently the property address is placed in the general settings tab. The address placed in the general settings tab is the one that appears in the booking confirmation message for reservations at Mews booking engine in at tahe " How to get there" field.
    We've tried to leave the ‘City’ field in the general settings tab blank, but it's not possible because it's a mandatory field.

    As the different space categories are located in two different cities, the fact that the address…

  5. Ability to enter centrally stored common company email footer (HTML snippet) to be attached to all email templates, without having to add (and maintain if changes occur) it individually to each template by hand.

  6. As a property that hosts guests for long stays, it is important to know what guest is associated with what product.

    When a product is charged (1x) and consumed by one person and two people are on a reservation, there is no way to determine what guest is associated with what product. This gets more complicated the more products purchased that are for single consumption.

  7. If there was a report that is schedulable, that would show all loyalty members who are departing today, to make manual point posting easier and provide more accurate reports.

  8. When campaign code is restricted, booking engine should show this to the guest "the campaign code is not available this date, please try another date"

    At the moment Booking Engine is showing only available rates and not giving any information about the restricted campaign code.

  9. It would be great if you can restrict the guest information that is returned for a certain AccessToken.
    We have an inquiry that our customer wants to see limited guest profile data (only guest name and room number) in our software and not the whole guest information like addresses, communication information, etc...

    Therefore it would be helpful, when such a filter can be configured on Mews side.

  10. Guests would need to try and book slots hoping there is availability. In high demand services this would mean several tries to book a time slot until sucessful. Better option would be to allow properties to display their availability for hourly services too for a better UX

  11. When you are in the process of booking a room you should be able to make a table reservation in the same process. The table reservation should be linked to an inventory.

  12. To customize the guest journey for distribution partners, we would LOVE to see the ability to customize background images for individual booking engines for accommodations as well as for availability blocks. Not only will examples of this experience help get distribution partnerships over the finish line, but it will also create a custom and personalized experience for the relevant guests. Furthemore, it creates numerous opportunities for cobranding.

  13. When we make a manual booking for a rate that requires a downpayment the "Automatic settlement failed" email is sent out if there is no credit card attached.

    This, in itself, is a good thing. However it is often unclear for the guests how much they have to pay. They's have to find back the original booking confirmation (might have been months ago) and look through the rate description to figure out how much they have to pay.

    A simple placeholder for the amount that the automatic settlement rule was supposed to have taken would be great for these cases.

  14. Add a QR Code or so to the rooms, so the guest can use the direct chat to get in contact with the Hotel from the room and just just via the Emails.

  15. I design websites for hotel and am working on the first site where Mews needs to be integrated. It surprised me to see that it is not possible to link to a specific room or package in the booking engine.

    Every hotel website I worked with wants a page on their where they describe and promote their room types and packages. It makes perfectly sense to add a [Book now] button to that description, which raises the expectation that you can directly book that room type or package with a click on that button.

    Unfortunately this is not possible with…

  16. Currently - settlement + cancellation policies are not visible to the guest in the booking engine. So for each rate code - we have to manually insert text to describe this in multiple languages.
    Most other Booking Engines display these rules by default during the booking-process online. Mews should be able to auto-generate this text - in multiple languages.

    The proposed solution would remove potential mismatch/errors between text & rules , save time for the user, and create a more sellable text to display rather than focusing a lot of the text to rules regarding the reservation.

  17. The current UX/UI design and flow is not logical, at least to me. When entering a guest name into the search bar or clicking a guest name - you are taken to the profile tab instead of directly to the guest dashboard (where you can access every tab, closed bills, rebates, refunds, past stays, and future stays).

    Currently, you are creating more steps than it should be - by having the page that you're being directed to - be the users profile instead of the dashboard.

    If you program the backend to direct the user to the guest dashboard instead…

  18. Add the option to "safe" information on a bill/invoice for future reservation.

    For example:

    Be able to attach referens and voucher numbers to the bill. I have noticed you can only attach the information when you are abou to send the invoice.
