(Where) Can I go to a "sleeper" cinema? - Black Boss Can on Top Beside White Mug

I came upon an article going around Facebook which shows some unusual cinemas around the world. The first photo shows a number of movie-goers lying in beds watching a flick:

enter image description here

The article offers sparse details, at best, only claiming the location is "Olympia Music Hall, France" and a comment says "It was actually an event held by IKEA in France."

Are there any cinemas that do this regularly?



Best Answer

It's not quite the same but a similar style of venue recently opened in Budapest.

Their "beds" don't have the abundance of linen shown in the photo; it's more of a very, very deep lounge than a bed. But they still look pretty comfortable and you have the option of having food delivered to your bed during the movie.

In Australia, in Sydney, the closest to this would be Govinda's Movie Room in Darlinghurst, which is walking distance from the city centre or Kings Cross.

Downstairs is an all you can eat Indian vegetarian buffet restaurant. I believe it was run by the Hari Krishnas but I'm not sure that it still is. It's good but not as cheap as other Hari Krishna restaurants I've been to.

Upstairs is the movie room, which has a few seats but mostly special mattresses you lie down on, which are not exactly like beds. The screen isn't so big so this is one cinema where I prefer the front row, especially with a full tummy.

You can buy a combined ticket for food and movie or just for the movie. The movies have just finished their run in regular cinemas and they rotate different movies each day and change the movies each week or month.

Answer 5

There are lot of luxury cinemas around the word with cosy and comfy beds.

Few of them:

  • The Blitz Megaplex chain in Jakarta, Indonesia offers sofa beds,
  • Over in Thailand, the Paragon Cineplex in Bangkok offer big beds with blankets and fluffy pillows,
  • In Malaysia, the Beanie chain of cinemas offer large beanbag seats instead of chairs,
  • The Electric Cinema in London offers armchairs, sofas and giant red velvet.
  • Pillow Cinema offer the cosiest "night in" night out (mostly on fatboy bean bags).
