Who this is for
Any Mews-integrated customer that has broken down their “Bookable Services” by business segment but tied them to the same underlying rooms. You would do this so you can manage different rates and restrictions by business segment, but work with the same underlying set of rooms/inventory.
Example:
Service: Hotel
Room Types: Standard Rooms, Queens, Villas
Rates: BAR, Flexible, No Cancelation
Service: Student
Room Types: Standard Rooms, Queens, Villas
Rates: Student Rate
The number of rooms at the property has not doubled, there are just now 2 routes you can take for booking them: “Hotel” service or “Student” service. The service you choose determines the rates and restrictions
In this example, you would book all of your students through the “Student” service, and all of your other business through the “Hotel” service.
How it works
All Mews integrations Admin users have the ability to have multiple Accommodation Services configured.
Click Settings
Click Integrations -> PMS
Click Edit
Under Guest Room Control, select the required Accommodation Services
Click Save
When multiple services are enabled, the app changes in a few ways:
Room Type Sync
The room type sync will now download room types for each selected service
It still runs nightly but can also be run manually from settings
Rate Sync
The rate sync will now download rates for each selected service
It still runs nightly but can also be run manually from settings
Availability
You now need to select the service to fetch live availability for
Groups
You now need to select the service the group block will be for
When adding room types to the group, it will only allow room types for that service
Reservations
No need to select the service the reservations will be created for
If a group already exists, the reservations will be made against the group’s service
