Partners that went live in May


Arcavis

The Mews x Arcavis integration connects Mews with the powerful Arcavis POS solution. This means that your guests can conveniently purchase goods on any Arcavis POS and get billed via Mews.

And it’s all automatic. At the POS, a guest can be searched for by name or room number, and when the sale is closed, the product data and total amount are transferred to Mews, allowing for simple and straightforward billing when the customer leaves.

Intello by Telus

Intello by Telus i-Hotel is a feature-rich guest HSIA solution – aka high-speed internet access. For the modern guest, fast and reliable internet is hugely important; if your Wi-Fi is poor, they may decide never to return to your hotel.

So what does Intello give you? For a start, you’ll get responsive multilingual login pages, Personal Area Networks, bandwidth limiting and grouping, remote equipment monitoring, 24/7 support and more. Plus, the Mews integration gives your hotel an easy-to-use self-service internet portal for your guests.

Simon & Josef

Simon & Josef is a housekeeping solution that prioritizes guest happiness and the environment. If the guest is staying longer than two nights, they’ll receive an SMS from the hotel via the S&J platform. The message contains a survey where guests can personalize their room cleaning according to their wishes.

This means that guests are more comfortable during their stay as they set their own expectations, while housekeeping teams are empowered to easily see and manage their schedule ahead of time. The other big bonus is that hotels will save on cleaning costs, which also benefits the environment as it means less chemical and energy usage. With the Mews connection, you can run more accurate reports with guest reservation data.
