The Cumberland is easy to find, the staff are helpful, and the rooms are clean. However there are a couple of faults.
Upon arriving at the hotel, I was told that my room had been double booked, but they decided to grant me a free upgrade. All good except that my room was now above the hotels nightclub, and I had to put up with booming music until 3am.
That said, I did manage to have a wonderful sleep after it finished, and awoke feeling refreshed. The beds there are extremely comfy, so much so that I didn't particularly want to get up!
The other thing I wasn't too impressed with was the bathroom. There were several cracks in the plaster, one of the lightbulbs had blown and the complimentary shampoo bottle was half empty.
My advice? At reception, ask what the noise levels are like in the room and don't accept it until you have inspected it.
