Thought this was a really decent price considering what is included in the price! You need to use code SUNNYDAYS to take 10% off the onsite price.
For just £44.55pp (£89.10) you can stay in a standard en-suite double or twin room with breakfast, two-course dinner on the first night, glass of house wine, free wifi, full use of the leisure club facilities (includes indoor heated swimming pool, steam room, sauna and gym) + late checkout - this price is valid for all days in November & Sun-Thursday, 3-23 Dec 2017.
If you prefer to stay in September then it is £53.55pp (£107.10) valid Sun-Thu, 3-28 Sep 2017 or if you fancy an Autumn break then you can stay in October for £49.05pp (£98.10)
Looks like there's lots to do in the Bournemouth area too, beaches, restaurants, entertainment & nightlife including the UK's first 6D cinema, there is a really useful link HERE & another HERE that will give you inspiration for your stay.

Typical review...
We spent 2 nights here & sadly our room wasn't serviced on our 2nd day - we had to phone reception. The problem was resolved very promptly but not a good impression. The whole place badly needs repainting - it is very very tired. Paint is chipped throughout & wall paper is torn in places.Carpets are worn & in some places is taped down for safety reasons. The hotel is clean but it must be disheartening for the staff to look after a place which looks so unloved. There is no Spa & a restaurant ( pizzeria) does not exist so advertising needs to be updated. The pool has chipped tiles & looks as if it could do with a clean around the edges. Steam room & sauna were fine. More wet floor signs are required - the floors in changing rooms & corridors were very wet. To end on a positive note - the staff we met were lovely - friendly, polite & helpful. The breakfast was good & substantial. Such a shame to criticise but if it is to warrant 3-4 stars it needs to up its game.Bournemouth has so much to offer.

Scores 4.8/5 on Groupon from 200 reviewers, looking at tripadvisor, people are saying it's tired but staff & food are great & the location is excellent, for around £23pppn think it offers good value

I disagree Bournemouth and Poole have great beaches and some very nice restaurants...however this hotel is a poor choice, better to go for a Premier Inn as a budget choice!

This hotel is centrally located near shops nightlife, gardens, new foodie outlets and cinema complex and short walk to the beach and pier. Short walk to bus stops which takes you to Poole with change for Purbeck, Corfe castle, Sandbanks,Swanage or buses to New forest and Southampton. The hotel is dated and parking can be a little tight if on a budget this is an OK deal and I also disagree with red 23 Bournemouth is a great place and has something for everyone.

Can you use multiple codes on Groupon? They have emailed me a £10 off a £20 spend.

Good deal OP. Not somewhere I would stay again (it was a few years back. Tired hotel in need of updating). If you get the chance to stay at the Cumberland, go for it! Lovely hotel, good beds and really nice food.

I live in Bournemouth. Be aware it is a old style hotel which is being knocked down soon but good area of town with a nice bar

Done the deal about 5pm today. Phoned the hotel and was told reservations couldn't be taken as it was past 4-30!! Bit peed off so emailed them with details and asked to reserve a room. Still haven't heard anything (11pm now) If I can't get any joy in the morning I will asking for a refund. Like has been said reviews are not that good, hey ho!! Will let you all know how it turns out.
