Great location if you like to run, but service not up to 4 star standard

Stayed here during the Olympics. Reception deak was always a saga. Everything took forever. Internet/wireless service was awful. Used internet across the street at deli. Some of the people at the concierge desk were great, others not so much. Rooms okay but tvs not great and hair dryer didn't work. Tub didn't drain properly. For the price it should have been better.

We only spent two nights at the Cumberland, but I could have easily stayed longer. The hotel is immaculate, and the staff is knowledgeable and very service oriented.

Fabulous Location, Great Service

The Cumberland hotel has a great location both for touristic attractions and shopping. Our room was very comfortable and all kinds of service such as concierge, house keeping, reception were superior. I would definetly recommend it to my friends and stay there next time I visit London.

Zentrales, stylishes Hotel - leider laute Klimaanlage

Die zentrale Lage an der Oxford-Street direkt bei der Tube-Station Marble Arch ist super, vor allem für Shopping. Die Greenline-Busse nach London Luton fahren gleich gegenüber im Hyde Park ab - sehr praktisch. Im nahe gelegenen "Le Pain Quotidien" (an der North Audley Street) gibt's gutes Frühstück, leckere Kuchen UND gratis WLAN. Denn im Cumberland ist das Frühstück nicht inbegriffen und recht teuer. Und WLAN gibt's nur gegen Bezahlung - was ich unverständlich und ärgerlich finde. Das Zimmer war sauber und stylish, die Eingangshalle cool, das überwiegend osteuropäische Personal freundlich. Negativ war - nebst dem generell schwachen Wasserdruck der Duschen in England - einzig ein extrem lautes Brummen der Klimaanlage/Heizung vom Facility Room nebenan, aber wir hatten dann doch keine Lust auf einen Zimmerwechsel. Also vor dem Auspacken zuerst lauschen.
