After a multi million pound investment, The Cumberland Bournemouth has been transformed into one of the most opulent designer hotel's on the UK's south coast. Situated on the prestigious East Cliff, overlooking miles of golden sandy beaches, The Cumberland Hotel resembles one of Miami's great Art Deco hotel's of Ocean Drive. The decadent splendour of the 1930s combined with today's urban chic style has been carefully designed into the new Cumberland.

For some reason the decking area

For some reason the decking area of this hotel could be a lovely feature in the evenings if only they put out more outside heaters with a bit more heat in them.Lights also needed outside as you have many older or even wheelchair bound guests coming out health & safety surely can ensure there is adequate lighting outside for smokers and others who just want to enjoy sitting in the decking area or near to the pool.Had to always get up myself and pay and collect my drink. Most hotels i stay in waiters and waitresses chk on hotel residents saving you from getting up each time yourself! Staff very nice and professional most of them.Food prices high as you expect from a hotel

Was given a room with no heating

Was given a room with no heating -- and this in winter. However, an electric fan heater was very quickly produced for me. On a previous stay at this hotel (in summer) the room was so hot that it was almost unbearable. This is because the single rooms adjacent to the lift have hot water pies passing under the floor. Avoid these rooms at all costs!! Otherwise, most rooms are quite good, as is the service.

Room suffered from pretty noisy

Room suffered from pretty noisy plumbing. Also floorboards of room above mine were very squeaky, and so you could hear every step the occupier took. Comically old 1980s tv in room. These gripes aside, an acceptable hotel if you just need a place to sleep and shower between going out in Bournemouth and the surrounds.
