The Cumberland Hotel Reviews (10) Write a review Womderful Wedding Venue Service By Mrs Karen Butcher & Mr Robert Butcher, on 09 Jul 2019Date of Wedding - 14 Jun 2019 Hi Brian We had a wonderful Wedding. I can't thank you and the staff of the hotel enough. the food was amazing and the head guy in the restaurant (sorry I don't know his name) and the other waiting staff were amazing. Everything ran very smoothly and I (we) didn't have to worry about anything. I only have one teenie tiny thing and that is it would have been helpful if there had been cards by the Indian food so everyone new which curry was which. I will miss meeting up with you and chatting, could've talked to you for hours about gardening and the Theatre. You are a very warm and engaging person and i'm so glad we picked you and the hotel to celebrate our Wedding.Wedding Reception Venue Service By Kariines Bacani & Saqib Noon, on 04 May 2019Date of Wedding - 08 Mar 2019 Lisa was very accommodating and helpful with us. Our booking was short notice but she made sure that all our requests were done. All the staff who served us were friendly. The venue was very clean and appropriate for the event. They can also the flower arrangements upon request. The food was really delicious although it took a while for the main course to be served but it was worth it anyway. Thank you for making our day extra special!Wedding of the Year Venue Service By Mark Kensley & Derek Thompson, on 04 May 2019Date of Wedding - 08 Sep 2018 The Cumberland hotel hosted our Art Deco style wedding on the 08th September 2018 We chose the venue because we had eaten here before in the Ventana Restaurant and had previously spent many evenings with friends and family.

Lisa Dowdall-Sousa looked after us and was professional but also friendly through the whole process. Nothing was too much trouble. We had a taster evening before the wedding to decide what food to choose and on the day though the hotel was busy with other guests the standard and quality of the food was excellent. All our guests were extremely complimentary on the delicious food served and the polite professional staff serving. Lisa helped us through every part of the day and couldn’t do enough for us. Every aspect of the wedding went faultlessly onto the next part with all the staff attending to the guests needs. I would recommend The Cumberland Hotel as an amazing venue for a wedding. Thank you Lisa for making our day so memorable and happy for everyone.Our Wedding Venue Service By Caroline & Perry Hillier, on 27 Apr 2017Date of Wedding - 01 Apr 2017 We chose our wedding to be held at the Cumberland hotel. After seeing the room with the dome roof nowhere else compared. Lisa our wedding coordinator was a great help along the way, especially when it came to sorting out food for all allergies .even when having to re arrange table plans the day before the wedding nothing was to much. Lisa & her team helped the day run smoothly as possible & made it perfect. Everyone complemented on how lovely the food was and waiter service, how quickly the food came out. The evening reception was also set up quickly so guests weren't waiting around for ages! We couldn't have wished for a more perfect day.so thank you to everyone at the Cumberland who made our day so special.
