Automated incidentals upon guests arrival
In the US, upon arrival the hotel puts hold (pre-authorizes) the guest card for certain amount/night (it's usually a flat rate). They keep the money on hold and when the guest exceeds their spending (restaurant, spa charges etc that they put on their room), the system should then pre-authorize additional amount. It's like credit the hotel holds for the spending of the guest during their stay.
In other PMS systems you can program the amount either per day (i.e. $50.00 per day on top of the room & tax) or per stay flat rate (i.e. $150.00 per stay). Then, as…

Split tax for one product in mews
Due to corona, German VAT for food was reduced from 19% to 7%. (There were other tax reductions already last year due to corona from 19-16% and mews handled everything fine).
Now the problem is that the product "breakfast" includes both food and drinks and therefore has to have 2 splits of tax.
I.e. if the total price is 15€, 10€ need to be taxed with 7% and 5€ with 19%. But in the mews products, I can only put one VAT Tax per procuct.
So some German Mews hotels add an extra product after every booking of breakfast manually…5 votesHello all,

Rounding Precision
Mews rounds per item at the end down to 0.00 (inconsistent) dropping the 3rd decimal.
Channel Manager rounds at the end down to 0.000
US Taxes the Total Price.Leaves $0.01 at times from 3rd party booking engine to the PMS.
Example:
Rate = 299.00
Tax @ 13.45% = 40.2155 (IBE 3rd parties round up/down)
Total = $339.22However, Mews drops the 3rd decimal in the tax and returns $40.21. Therefore, the Total in Mews is $339.21 versus the IBE by 3rd parties (iHotelier and SynXis) which round up/down at the 3rd decimal.
This results in some cases a $0.01…

VAT rates are not included in the rates/getall API call at the moment
The VAT rates applied cannot be extracted through the rates/getall API call or any other calls yet.
This is the "Tax Rate" field shown when you view a rate in the Mews website.
Due to various changes over the last year, this is crucial to have for reporting.

No city tax for children and free breakfast for children
Would be easier to just add breakfast and city tax in case it's necessary than having to counterbook it with every single reservation where children are involved.

keep old price button
When changing the number of people in a booking if you select KEEP OLD PRICE, the system will change the city tax and add the difference to the room price. Please change this so that the price of the room is not changed, the city tax has nothing to do with room night prices.

Registration Card Report
There is a specific "Counter" in Mews for the registration cards, but there is no report we can get sorted by Registration Card Number.
In our case, we must register each guest (using a correlative registration number) at the time of check in.
One of the reasons is that the Authorities / Country Administration requires from the hotel, a city tax report that consists in a list of guests sorted by registration number, that includes personal information and details of the stay.
If we can get a list of invoices in Mews (using the Invoice Counter), why is it not…

Rate Rules setting, as Product Rules
Would be nice to have a Rate Rules settings (as also Product Rules) to be able to make more tailor made rates. At this moment we use the Rate Rules settings to setup rates, but this results in wrong city tax, because the Product Rules settings are not included in the (hard coded) city tax calculation.

Have products included in rate visible during the reservation process in Commander
When making a new reservation in Commander, there is no way to see a breakdown of the product(s) included in the rate until after the reservation is confirmed.
This is even more confusing when the product price is added to the rate. For example if the rate is EUR 100 per night and a compulsory city tax of EUR 1 per night is automatically added, there is no way for me to see instantly why I selected a EUR 100 but the total value of the booking is EUR 101.3 votesHi Peggy,

Different Tax: local vs foreign tourists
Some countries require to collect different tax based on the nationality of their guests. Local (national) tourists pay less taxes than foreign tourists.
Example of such country is Peru. Since Mews is live in Peru, this feature would be great to have.

Build Resort Fee option or allow products to not display within Nightly Rate total on distributor
We use resort fees at our property and have product rules in place so they are automatically attached to rate groups however this is never displayed on the distributor. It only appears once the reservation has been booked and can seem to some guests as a 'surprise fee' if they do not read the fine print.
Would be best to have a resort fee option built or be able to include products on distributor without them being displayed as an addition to nightly rate but within the 'Fees and Taxes' section.
The option to include price in offer does not…

Statistics report in Finland
In Finland hotels must provide a monthly report on guest that have stayed at a property. The report can be created manually, however there is a possibility that the report can be created automatically.
You can review this information here:

Navigator translations intereference with Google translations
The Navigator Website has several different languages available. However, every guest that does not speak English will get the google translate notification. If a guest enables this option, any language will get translated to the selected language. For example: German to German, which results in an unreadable text.
This is highly recommended especially for German houses. In some text it even says "you die".

German Statistics for authorities
In Germany, we are legally required to send a monthly report of used and offered roomnights and nationalities to the authorities. In my last training, I found out that there is such a feature/integration already existing for Belgium, Switzerland and Italy etc. Can we please also have this for Germany so not every Hotelier has to check and calculate various reports to get all the information?
That would be a great thing!! :)50 votesHi Trini,
Thank you vey much for your feedback.
We are currently looking into integration providers such as AVS to provide statistical information for properties in Germany and would greatly appreciate your insights with regards to this.
Please contact me via email so that we can look into your request further? In the interim, this request has bene updated as one to be upvoted by the Mews Community.

All properties in the Alto Adige region have to report to the Landesverband der Tourismusorganisationen Südtirols (LTS) extranet.

VAT drop for longstay guests (28+ days)
in the UK the VAT drops from 20% to 4% from the 29th night.. which is currently happening in Mews however the total amount doesn’t change just the internal split changes. So properties are not able to pass the benefit of the reduced tax to guests which ideally they should do or at least would like to do.

Mews T&C's in local language
The Mews T&C's need to be accepted by the guest when making a booking via the Mews Distributor. These T&C's are in English, but some guest find that hard to read. It would be great to have this available in local languages.
