Stayed at the Cumberland for 4 nights in May 2013. Hotel a bit tired but staff good and helpful. Food excellent. Adam and Phil our entertainment for two nights were great and had a good choice of music. Something for everyone. Our party had a good time.

I am staying here with a group of friends over the weekend 8 - 11 March 2013. We were made to feel welcome on arrival, a bit earlier than expected, and from then on; the evening meal was very good, portions just right, and service top notch. My single room is a bit small, but perfectly adequate, facilities as expected,... More

Pleasant dining room, but horrible red plastic chairs to sit at the table. The bedrooms are clean and tidy, but cracked tiles botched up with filler and a... More

I visited this hotel on the weekend 10 feb 2013. A linedance weekend with IOW Tours. The food was very good served by pleasant and helpful waiters. The dance venue was also of a good standard. The hotel itself is in need of some TLC. The room (406 ) was adequate but basic. Television what I saw of it, had... More

Went to our Christmas Party at the Cumberland and stayed the night. Good party (despite awful music) great room. Coffee at breakfast too some effort, but followup was good. Front desk staff has good sense of humour, breakfast staff needs a life. Parking can be provided but did not find out until I had put my car in the public... More
