Brooks Private Cinema - yet another cool slightly unknown gem in Dublin! It's a private theater…read morebased in a lovely hotel! Tired of the megaplex experience? Love classic films? Like the idea of a bar a few steps away from the 'silver screen'? Want a huge comfy seat to go with that popcorn? Step right up - get your tickets folks! This place gets two very enthusiastic thumbs up! There are about 20+ huge and incredibly comfortable seats in this private cinema. There's also popcorn and pelligrino to go with your ticket (or a cocktail if you prefer for a few euro more). And, the films shown are those cool classics of yesterday (like Dracula and Jaws)! You're even welcome to send recommendations to them for future films via Facebook! The cinema is in a great location too - steps from downtown Grafton Street! And, the hotel that holds this private gem is actually a nice spot to enjoy a pre- or post-film cocktail. (There's a comfortable lounge or you can grab a stool at the smaller bar which I prefer...) It's a cozy experience indeed. Get your prepaid tickets by calling or sending an email - and hurry as some films sell out...! See you at the movies!

I went to see Hocus Pocus here in October last year and loved this place!! It's definitely not your…read moreaverage cinema experience (no sticky floors here) and the seats were super comfortable! The popcorn was served in a little cute box and you could pick your own drink off the table. Staff were great and the hotel looks nice. If there was one thing for me to fault and I'm probably being picky but it's that the website doesn't seem up to date with the amount of tickets available. When I tried to buy mine it said there were 6 available but I was put on a waiting list. Other than that the experience overall was fantastic and I would definitely go back!

This cinema is the only/main tenant of the Point Village shopping centre, and so you'll have to…read moreclimb a few empty floors to get there. On the very top floor you'll find the Odeon Cinemas as well as an adjacent Costa Café. There's also a small Ben & Jerry's ice cream stand, and that's it. This theatre has 6 screens and it's usually not too crowded, even during weekends. Midweek is the perfect time to go, as you can avail of 6€ tickets and also get free upgrades to the Premium Seats because the place won't be too busy - some people "upgrade" themselves by simply moving to those seats, but you can ask at the counter and avoid embarrassment if someone comes in with a ticket assigned to the seat you've taken. I prefer to buy the tickets online, because you can skip the queues and just use one of the machines dotted around the cinema to pick up the tickets. They also have a loyalty card, very useful if you go to Odeon cinemas frequently, it doesn't take long to get points to spend on free tickets and etc., plus you sometimes get special screenings or promotions. Staff is a-ok, but friendly enough. The crowd is mixed, I've been asked before if there's trouble with kids because of the neighbourhood, and except for the one time two young lads tried to sneak in without a ticket, I never watched another "incident" worth noting. Even though people tend to leave all their trash behind them on the seats, they manage to keep everything quite tidy all the time, which contributes to a nicer experience than in other cinemas. It's a very commercial cinema so expect to go weeks without a good film to watch. They tend to keep action blockbusters on for months and some other movies only for a week or two, so if you find something you want to watch here, don't postpone it too much.

Nice nice cinema the Odeon. The few Staff we met were nice to deal with…read more Even the clientele seemed to be good folk. Less rustling of wrappers and a lot less chatter during the movie than what I'm normally used to at other Dublin City cinemas. Leg room is excellent in the iSense screen. The deal caught my eye: parking, a meal at the hotel bar and a regular 2D show for 20 EUR. Not a bad deal. It remains to be seen if the meal is worth it. Also movies 6 EUR early in the week is a great deal. So many reasons to make the trip to the Odeon at the Point Village. I'm a fan.

I've been here a few times and each time, the staff have been really friendly. The screens themselves are a bit smaller so they're not overcrowded. They don't show many of the more mainstream films that I am generally interested in so I do tend to go to other cinemas more often but it's always a very enjoyable experience when I do get to visit!

My all-time favourite cinema in Dublin. It's super stylish and sleek, while also managing to feel…read morecosy and relaxed. They have a cafe at the entrance which is pretty nice - I've met friends there without even going into the cinema itself. They mostly show arty, less commercial films here, so you won't always find every new release. They do tend to show lots of older films, which is very cool. I recently went to a showing of Back to the Future, which was of course awesome on the big screen. They also hold lots of different film events (Kubrick Season, Tarantino Season, etc), premieres, Q&As with Directors after screenings and so on. The screens themselves are good, the seats are plush and roomy, one or two of the rooms have multicoloured seats which are very cool! Another cool little feature is that the Light House has its own bar, and you are permitted to bring your drinks with you into the movie.

Since cinemas (this one is not an exception either) are pretty expensive considering what you paying for, you may hop over to the McDonald's or KFC just across the road and buy yourself some cheap snacks. For those with the car, know that outside parking is paid. You may use Supermarket's underground parking which is free for up to 2 hours. Or if you plan to stay longer than that and want to save a buck, then park at the McDonald's. Dislike one little thing that toilets are not on all screening floors.

Located off the M50 but parking from what I could see (or unable to see) on a dark Jan very poorly signposted. We found the underground carpark and parked up quickly - lots of spaces. Parking is free for 1st 3 hours. The cinema itself is typical Odeon however despite being new it lacked something and for sure it lacked some heating as the screen we sat in was cold. I will stick to where I know and give this cinema a miss in the future.

The Stella is a unique movie theater, with sumptuous seating offering, red leather couches, leather overstuffed chairs and hassocks, quaint side tables with tiny lamps and seat side service. You make reservations in advance, reserving specific chairs or couches, or, if you are so inclined, one of the large beds located at the very front of the theater. You can pre-order food which is brought to you or if not hot, already at your table when you arrive. The theater has a retro concession stand and you can have alcoholic drinks in the theater. The movie screen was huge and the sound was fabulous. Our seats were in the 5th row. Beforehand, you can book a table or bar seats for dinner or drinks in the upstairs cocktail bar which is also unique and fabulous. Very art deco with a cool vibe! They have a fancy drink menu, I snapped a few photos of sample drink offerings. My friend's cocktail arrived in a stemmed footed porcelain teacup! We did not finish a bottle of wine we had ordered for the table and we were informed we were free to take the bottle and glasses down to the theater to enjoy during the movie! Very nice! The service was very friendly, although they had some obviously new waitstaff who had trouble getting their act together and could not recall who ordered what and just simply placed entrees randomly in front of our table's diners, resulting in lots of dish passing and exchanging. The food was quite good. I ordered the Kale Salad (delicious) and the Creamed Spinach (yummy, but too liquidy) and Chicken Skewers. My husband ordered the Patatas Bravas and the Chicken Skewers, my friend ordered the giant Garlic Chili Prawns, Kale Salad and her husband ordered the Baba Ganoush. Good taste reports all around! The atmosphere is intimate and you are allocated a 1 hour and 45 minute schedule for your reserved dining space which was plenty of time. We did not feel rushed at all. I would highly recommend this unique and fun experience when in Dublin!
