Troubleshooting: Merged guest messages for different reservations

To keep communication organized, Guesty merges messages from returning guests into a single conversation thread, even when messages belong to different reservations. 

Understand merged messages

When a guest sends a message, Guesty checks if they already exist in your account by comparing their name, contact details, and reservation information. If Guesty finds a match, it identifies them as a returning guest and merges the new message into their existing conversation thread.

Returning guests display a "Returning" label under the the guests icon inbox widget.

Navigate to the relevant reservation via the conversation thread

Follow the steps below to navigate to the relevant reservation for a returning guest via the conversation thread in the Guesty Inbox.

Step by step:

  1. Sign in to your Guesty account.
  2. In the side navigation menu, click icon Inbox.
  3. In the Inbox submenu, click Guests.
  4. Click the relevant message thread.
  5. In the inbox widget submenu, click the guests icon.
  6. Under the guest's name, check for the "Returning" label.
  7. In the inbox widget submenu, click the reservation widget .
  8. For guests with multiple reservations, click the arrow next to the confirmation code. Reservations appear by creation date.
  9. Select the relevant reservation from the dropdown menu to view the reservation details, such as listing information or the check-in date.

Note:

If you update a guest's details, such as their name, email, or phone number, the changes apply to all reservations under this guest. Returning guest messages merge automatically.
