Adjusting price levels in Mews RMS fine-tunes price recommendations to guests for specific stay dates. Revenue managers and front office staff can adjust these levels to respond to market changes over the long-term without disabling dynamic pricing. Revenue managers and front office staff can perform this task directly in Mews RMS, using the Calendar view.

This feature especially supports properties with limited historical room price data, as it gives you manual control while maintaining data-driven optimization.

 

Note:

• Price adjustments affect the internal price optimization process. Adjustments do not guarantee a visible change in the final price as other optimization factors can outweigh the adjustment.
• Changes are permanent, and you cannot revert them. To undo a change, you need to apply a new adjustment in the reverse direction.

How to make bulk adjustments to price levels from the Calendar screen in Mews RMS

To adjust the price level in Mews RMS from the Calendar screen:

1. Click Adjust price levels. This opens the Adjust price levels screen.
2. Fill in the following fields:

• Start date: Click to select the start date of the event.
• End date: Click to select the end date of the event.

3. Click Add to add the selected dates.
4. Under Room types, click to select one of the following options:

• All room types: Applies the adjustment to all room types.
• Custom room types: Applies the adjustment to one or multiple specific room types. Click the dropdown to select one or multiple specific room types.

5. Under Adjustment type, click to select one of the following options:

• Increase: To set the price adjustment to increase the price.
• Decrease: To set the price adjustment to decrease the price.

6. Under Impact level, click to select one of the following options. Note: Due to factors relating to price optimization, these numbers are approximate, not exact:

• 3%
• 5%
• 10%
• 15%
• 20%

Note: You may only see a small change in pricing recommendations because other factors, such as preventing rebookings or competitor price movements, can still influence the final recommendation.

7. Click Save to confirm the changes.

 

This completes the price adjustment in Mews RMS.

 

Mews RMS applies the new price after the next optimization round.

 

Note: Changes are permanent, and you cannot revert them. To undo a change, you need to apply a new adjustment in the reverse direction. For example, if you increase a price level by 10 percent, to return to the original level you need to decrease it by 10 percent.

 

What are the limitations and additional considerations when adjusting price levels in Mews RMS

• Mews RMS applies adjustments according to the price hierarchy for the selected dates. You can only adjust prices for dates that Mews RMS currently includes in price optimization. This is up to 1 or 2 years in advance depending on how the onboarding team configures your property during onboarding.
• Price adjustments affect the internal optimization process, not the visible price. Mews RMS may recommend a different price than expected, depending on demand, occupancy, competitor data, and other factors.
• Price level adjustments are intended as a long-term price level influence, not short-term pricing corrections. For short-term actions, use an override instead.
• If your property uses Autopilot, Mews RMS automatically accepts and pushes new recommendations to the property management system.
• If the new price exceeds your configured minimum or maximum price, Mews RMS enforces those limits. It displays the price limit reached icon and applies the nearest valid price.

 

Mews RMS cannot adjust prices for stay dates that have no price set in the property management system, for example, if the hotel is closed.

 

Adjustments take effect only after Mews RMS performs a new optimization for the relevant dates. Mews RMS must receive new reservations to trigger an update, even if your property is set to real-time.
