Mews Guest Messaging

According to internal research with Mews PMS customers, hotel operations teams typically check five to seven platforms every day to keep up with guest messages: the property management system, OTA portals, WhatsApp Business, SMS and others. The fragmentation leaves gaps where messages slip through and responses become inconsistent. Third-party messaging tools, which connect to the PMS through an API, don't solve this either. Hotels still need to switch between systems to reply, and the guest data they surface is often incomplete and out of date.

Mews Guest Messaging solves this at the source. Built directly into the Mews Operating System, it brings SMS, WhatsApp and OTA messages into a single inbox connected in real time to the guest profile and reservation. There is no separate login, no subscription and no switching between platforms. AI suggests replies using the hotel's own knowledge base and can create tasks automatically based on the context of a message, so the right person is flagged to act without anyone having to manually triage. Staff spend less time on repetitive questions and more time on the interactions that matter. Because the product is native to Mews rather than integrated via API, the guest data available to every conversation is always current, with room type, reservation status, special requests and stay history visible the moment a message arrives.
