A client of ours has a basic blog that is built into their CMS - its simply a header / image / text field that is updated regularly - the purposes of this is that the manager wants to add weight to the site - improve SEO and improve the knowledge that they have won a tripadvisor award for romance.

They have complained that their site doesn't allow them to tag articles at all and is too rigid for the purpose. As I am not a .net developer (the CMS is built in .net) I figure the best way to improve the blog situation is to use a tumblr embed - which basically uses JavaScript to embed HTML into the page - and then style this too look like the existing blog - this would give them a complete - easily updated blog system with tagging - but I'm not sure whether this would be less beneficial for SEO? Can anyone advise please?

As a general rule, search engines don't read content created by JavaScript. There are some exceptions as this is changing over time, but the more complex the JavaScript is the less likely it is to be interpreted by search engines. This means your suggestion would not be beneficial for their SEO efforts.

If they're not satisfied with their current CMS they should consider changing to a CMS which has these features or hiring a .net developer to improve their existing one. If you want to be involved then you could contract that job out to someone but that's entirely up to you.
