We’re opening limited beta access to Mews Channel Manager powered by SiteMinder, and we’re inviting a small group of customers to try it first. 

 

Who this beta is for 

To take part, your property should meet the following criteria: 

  • 1–50 rooms 

  • Hotel, Hostel or B&B business model 

  • Interested in activating at least one non-Booking.com / non-Expedia OTA 

  • No active channel manager contract in place today with SiteMinder or other alternative vendors. 

Please note that Booking.com, Expedia and Airbnb aren’t eligible channels for this beta currently. 

This beta is best suited to properties that want to test complementary or regional channels and broaden their reach beyond the most popular OTAs 

 

Why join the beta? 

Managing distribution shouldn’t mean jumping between systems, chasing sync issues and double-booking occurrences, or relying on disconnected tools that cause problems every time you want to expand into a new segment or market by adding your inventory to new channels. 

That’s why we are building Mews Channel Manager, a new distribution layer that will allow you to connect to 400+ booking channels directly from your Mews workspace, so you can manage distribution in the same place you already set your rates, manage your inventory and reservations, and handle your entire guest lifecycle. 

That means no separate channel manager vendor to integrate with, no additional bill and no fragmented workflows to manage. Just what you need reach more guests, add the right channels and stay in control of your inventory without adding more complexity, while keeping an eye on how each channel is contributing to your revenue and occupancy. 

This beta is a chance to help shape a new way to expand your reach and manage distribution inside Mews. 

 

What will the Beta experience and functionality will look like? 

  • Enable Mews Channel Manager without leaving Mews 

  • Activate at least one new channel from a network of 400+ OTAs 

  • Map your rooms and rates and confirm the connection is live 

  • Sync inventory and reservations automatically between channels and Mews 

  • Manage inventory availability and restrictions across all channels from inside a single view, in the Mews workspace you already know 

 

How to join 

If you’d like to participate, comment on this post to let us know you’re interested. 

We’ll follow up with next steps and arrange a short call to confirm fit and discuss which channel you’d like to activate.

Hello, 

We have a channel manager but we would like to connect to another OTA that they do not currently offer. Could we still participate (keeping our current manager for most OTAs but adding Mews Channel Manager to connect to an aditional OTA). 

Thank you,

Julie

When you get to a point of using Expedia and/or Booking.com in the beta, I’d be interested in participating. They’re the only two OTAs with which we currently work.

we do have a channel manager but would actually love to change at this point (I know that this doesn’t really match your criteria but keep us in mind please ;) ).

SKKY Hotel is currently under contract with SiteMinder but would be interested once you open it up to more partners. We are only 32 rooms and have other channels connected (I’m assuming a GDS connection would qualify). 

Looking forward to the integration in the future.
