Inside Fettehenne Hotels’ journey to operational excellence with Mews

OPERATIONS

This lifestyle hotel chain in Germany enhances operational excellence and guest experience with an impressive tech stack powered by Mews.

Why it matters: Fettehenne Hotels is a collection of four lifestyle properties in Germany, each with its own distinct character under a shared family-owned brand. Their journey began in 2018, when the first hotel in Leverkusen was transformed from a family estate into a charming retreat. The chain soon expanded rapidly, adding new properties with a focus on maintaining the individuality and personal touch of each hotel.

Despite their rapid scaling, Fettehenne Hotels remain a family-owned business that values personal connections with guests and employees alike.

Top 3 Core Objectives: "Mews is incredibly intuitive and so easy to navigate. It automates and simplifies task management, leaving us more time to spend with guests. From the very start, I knew Mews was the right choice for us." Cornel Müller, Founder

Onboarding in three days: As Fettehenne Hotels expanded, they faced the challenge of onboarding staff with varying levels of experience, from hospitality novices to seasoned professionals. Having a PMS that was intuitive and easy to learn was crucial for efficient training across the board.
Boosting direct bookings: Fettehenne Hotels aimed to reduce their reliance on OTAs and offer guests a seamless direct booking experience that highlight the unique character of each property.
Smooth, efficient guest experience: As Fettehenne Hotels expanded, managing payments efficiently and ensuring a seamless guest experience became critical. They needed a solution that allowed guests to check in and pay with minimal friction.
