Allow users to get rid of a bookable service
Bookable services can be deleted only if there is no reservation under them (including cancelled reservations).
It is not possible to delete theme because access to these reservations might be needed in the future. However, it might be possible to deactivate/archive them, keeping the old data accessible in certain areas of the system.
12 votesHello, it's Martin here, from Mews.
Today, we are releasing service deletion for services with past reservations.
Bookable service can be deleted when there are no future or ongoing reservations attached to it. Also, there must be no automated exports, no service promotions and no integrations linked to the service.
The functionality is only available to users with permission to create and manage services.
Data from deleted services will disappear from almost all areas of the system, so use the functionality wisely :-) The data will only be visible in the manager report. Old reservations from a deleted service can also be accessed through the dashboard on the customer profile.
Find more details in the user guide in our Help center.

Introduce monthly rates
As a short stay accommodation our guests stay at least 6 months with us. To create appropriate invoices, we are forced to combine 30/31 daily rates and move them to a new invoice. For 200 guests a year, this is really time consuming. Hopefully it will be possible to settle a fixed price for every month. This will extremely benefit the efficiency of Mews from our point of business.
7 votesHello, monthly bookable services in Mews allow you to price your services on monthly basis: you do not have to define price for each night, you price full months and there is only one item (month) instead of 30 items (nights) on the bill.
In the coming months, the team will focus on improving the functionality for long stays (monthly reservations) and introduce pro-rating, flexible housekeeping and product posting. We are also looking into payments automation via direct debit.

Display order old stay services
In MEWS we have some old stay services which we dont use anymore but cannot delete because there are old reservations one.
I tried to change the display order in the stay service settings however this doesnt pull through on all screens.
E.g. homepage, reports and timeline.
When we are working in the account we need to keep changing the view from the old stay service to the actual active stay service.1 voteHello, the possibility to order bookable services on the dashboard and in the reports has just been released. More details can be found here: https://releases.mews.com/en/now-view-your-preferred-service-on-the-dashboard-timeline-and-reports-3

able to add a different service in a booking
once you have made a booking for a room, you seem to be unable to duplicate it and add a different service (like parking or cot). you should get the ability to change this when making the duplicate as the cot and parking are in general for the same dates as the room booking
1 voteHi, to create new reservation of another bookable service linked to a reservation of the accommodation, please, use Reservation group functionality.
You can use the same dates, details etc - just use the "Add another reservation" button in the Reservation flow.

Ability to delete bookable services
Currently, once created, bookable services can never be deleted. If you create some by accident you then have to live with them as they take up valuable up display real-estate (and increase the time it takes to figure out what to click on).
Please introduce the option to delete those (either from the property or from the support level).
11 votesHello, we are happy to inform you we have enabled service deletion in Mews.
Bookable services can be now deleted if there is no space category or space feature or reservation linked to them.

Monthly pricing of services
Would it be possible to pay per month and not per night? For exampe, our tenants stay at our residence 6 or 12 months. One month costs €510,-. Now I have to calculate it back to the costs per night. So for every month I have to divide the €510,- by 28, 30 or 31 nights. This almost never ends on a rounded number wich makes it a lot of work and the chance of making a mistake or typo is big. Please let me know if this would be possible.

Option to add bedrooms to a meeting event
When we have a meeting room booked and the company would like add bedrooms to their booking. So everything is connected and is clear that the reservations are for the same event.
1 voteHi, to create new reservation of another bookable service linked to a reservation of the Meeting room, please, use Reservation group functionality.
You can use the same dates, details etc - just use the "Add another reservation" button in the Reservation flow.
Alternatively, you can create a new reservation for the accommodation and merge it with the meeting room booking - again, everything will be in the same reservation group.

Option to create “Dummy” Space Categories
Idea:
Having Dummy spaces is immensely helpful for hotels, so we can place those guests over there. These are those guests who are not going to arrive or who have booked with an invalid cc. By placing the reservation in dummy, we keep them on a waiting list, while at the same time keeping the reservation active on the OTA channel!
It allows us to give preference to guests who pay and weed out fake/ fraud bookers
Dummy allows us to directly release the room online and keep the timeline sorted, without having to change the occupancy/ availability manually every…
23 votesSpaces without assigned categories can be used for this purpose.

being able to filter the availability screen by space category
it would be great if you would be able to filter the availability report per space category - when you have several space categories, you are not able to see everything on the one screen and are not able to see the space category or date when scrolling further to the right on the time line
6 votesHello Mewsers,
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us.
We are happy to inform you that we have introduced a filter for space categories in the new availability and occupancy report.

Non residential packages
Would be good to have feature where you can build a non residential package, that is not linked to accommodation. Foe example we have a spa and we do spa days. a meeting room where we have day delegate package.
You can create the package but you cant book the package as there is no "management accounts" or ability to add function space in Mews

Move a reservation group to a different space category in bulk
In case of group bookings, would it be possible to select several rooms which have the space category to move them to another space category instead of doing one by one?
2 votesHello Mewsers,
Thank you for your updates.
Did you know you can move multiple reservations in a group to a different space category from the properties tab?

23 votesHello,
I’m happy to inform you that it is now possible to create spaces/resources without a category and see them on the timeline + assign them house uses. The resources are currently not bookable through the standard channels and can be really “reserved” only for an internal usage.
Please, find a basic guide describing the functionality attached.

Thank you.

reservations longer then a year
We have received an error message 'reservation too long'. Currently reservations can only be accepted < 365 days. We need to be able and show there is business for long stays for our stakeholders and therefore splitting the reservations provide wrong information regarding the LOS. I would advise extending this time frame to 2 years
53 votesHello, reservations longer than a year can be created through monthly bookable services functionality. The maximum length is restricted to 5 years.
In the coming months, the team will focus on improving the functionality for long stays (monthly reservations) and introduce pro-rating, flexible housekeeping and product posting.

Day Use reservation
Ability to create day-use reservations from reservations screen. Currently, we have to create a 1-day reservation and then edit arrival times for day use.
26 votesHello dear Mews user,
We are happy to announce that Day use functionality in Mews has been released.
Day uses for bookable services bring increased flexibility.
Now it’s possible to set up bookable services in Mews for day use, allowing guests to reserve and use spaces at your property for a limited time period during a single day.
Day uses are a great way to expand the range of services you offer, attract new guest segments, and increase your revenue and occupancy rates. You can offer luxurious “daycations” to locals, cater to travelers looking for a few hours’ rest during layovers, or host professionals in need of temporary workspaces or meeting rooms.
Check link below to learn more about the basics of day use bookable services, then get started by following our guide on how to set up your own.
