My husband brought me here on a surprise date and oh. my. gosh. what a darling place. The theaters were newly renovated but still have their vintage feel. Seats are very comfortable and the place is very clean. Definitely planning on going back!
I love this little theatre. They usually play smaller, independent or foreign films that are sometimes hard to find at your bigger name cinemas. There’s only 1 theatre and it’s not very big, but it adds to the charm of the space. There’s a cute concession stand right outside the theatre that sells candy and drinks from the bar. (The theatre is towards the back of the hotel through the lobby, downstairs)
Went to a Drive screening and it was classy af
Good price for a cozy place, the hotel is great. But needs new chairs and a new curtain at the entrance of the theater. Outside light comes in whenever anybody enters the theater during the movie at anytime, which seems to be tolerated by the establishment.
I got to say: this theater is cool, its old school, its really not that expensive and it has a great selection of movies throughout the week from newer releases to hits from past decades. However, every.... single.... time I go to this theater the absolute WORST audience is there. People using their phones, talking throughout the movie, a ridiculous amount of getting up and coming back in with no consideration of standing in front of the projection or anything. I have been to this theater at least 6 times and every single time all the above is happening. I dont know if its tourists on vacation since its a hotel, or the typical inconsiderate retiree baby boomer locals who reflect what Im saying above, but just the level of inconsideration is incredible. Ill still come to this theater because they have a great selection and its so old school but oh my god is it a chore to watch anything here with such a lack of etiquette. Madonn!
A movie lovers dream of a theatre. Old time theatre feeling in a gorgeous setting. Classic popcorn 🍿 and modern movie 🍬 candy😄
I went to this cinema to see a movie that was posted online. When we got there they informed us the movie was cancelled because they didnt own the license to show the movie. I was a bit disappointed but the most annoying part was the attitude of the girl who works there. Minimal to no eye contact, very aggressive and angry. She was looking away while she talked to us and treated us like we are to blame for something. Not sure whats going on?! The place is very cute but with people like that working there not sure if I want to go there again.
I come here for the popcorn and stay for the shaved ice downstairs. This is the only movie theater where i get popcorn. Im one who gets nauseas at the smell of movie theater popcorn (doesnt it smell like feet?) but this place has caramel corn which smells like heaven. That alone makes it worth it to come to this theater.
Classic movie theatre below the Roxy hotel. The place is worth going just to get the classy 1950s feel of the hotel upstairs. You could also grab dinner before at the restaurant. No reserved seating at the theatre though.
Fun small theater in the basement of the Roxy Hotel. Very new but with a retro look - almost a steampunk vibe. The bar/restaurant on the first floor is a bit pricey but very good and attentive service despite our server getting the order wrong.
Truly one of the worst projections I’ve ever seen. It was 35mm and virtually every reel change was botched somehow. Horrible sight lines, too - I sat behind people with big hair and strained to see the screen for much of the movie. Won’t come back here unless I can’t see a movie anywhere else.
I went to see Hocus Pocus in theaters and they didn’t check the dvd! They were too cheap to afford a digital copy of the movie and ended up showing some bootleg skeleton movie. The disc was scratched! Only good thing about this experience is the person at the counter gave people refunds, free popcorn, and he gave someone 20 dollars for no reason.
THE ROXY CINEMA IS THE PEAK OF PERFECTION.COURTEOUS HELPFUL STAFF.BEAUTIFUL,CLEAN ENVIRONMENT.THE TICKETS ARE THE LEAST EXPENSIVE I KNOW IN MANHATTAN AT $12THEY ACCEPT MOVIEPASS WITH PLEASURE.THE THEATER IS FREE FOR ALL GUESTS OF THE HOTEL LOCATED UPSTAIRS.YOU CAN EVEN GET A PASS WITH POPCORN INCLUDED FOR ONLY $125HIGH CLASS FOR SURE.OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.THEY HAVE A CERTAIN FLAIR.LOUNGE AREA IS RELAXING AND THEY EVEN HAVE A SORT OF GAME SPACE IN THE LOBBY AND NEAR THE MAIN FLOOR BAR.THERE IS A PHOTO BOOTH,CHESS TABLE AND A POOL TABLE.VERY NEAR TO PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION SO ITS VERY CONVENIENT TO GET TO.M55 BUS ON 6TH AVE OR 1 TRAIN AT FRANKLIN STREET
Awesome spot, very unique atmosphere. Saw a movie recently that wasnt being shown in any other theater around here! Good film selections.
Great student discount- 5$ for all movies at any time. Cool location and theater design. It feels like stepping back in time.
Intimate space with a good-sized screen and very good sound. Easy to become immersed in the movie. Eclectic selections, check before you go
Quant little place to see a Movie!!
Very uncomfortable seats(old style). Screen is very small. Poor audio. They had technical issues where subtitles were not showing for a movie and technician was off and the operator couldnt fix it.
Great space and vibe
Unusually small, good ambience
Lovely theater. Comfy seats. Rented the place for an event.
Very classy theater.
Nice cinema located in the hotel of the same name. Always featuring award winning movies.
Lots of great atmosphere and architectural design, quality snacks ... and then, a tiny screen with a mediocre projection quality.
Quaint boutique cinema that was fun for my wife and me. Only negative is that their popcorn popper couldnt keep up with demand.
Classic vibe, projections of old films, sometimes 35 mm, unique design--love this place!
Cool Hotel with its own Movie Theater in the lower level.
Has it all: film, jazz, dining - one of my favorite spots
Beautiful place. Out of the way location but once you get to Roxy. You tend to stay.
Worlds biggest cinema theatre
Beautiful hotel with a not very good movie theater inside.
Good enough, if it wasnt for the bad job with the 40s stuff.
Great theater in a fabulous boutique hotel
Small theater, very loud audio, friendly staff
Oh man this is my favorite theater in NYC right now!

Clean rest room
Biggest Cinema of the world
Excellent!
Prices are very expensive and the sound is extremely loud. Also basically all movies are dubbed. However the facilities are very good and it is an important contribution to leisure and culture for Itauna, very well located on the main avenue, Av. Jove Soares and always has good options for childrens movies. For adults, its a good suggestion to go to the movies and then go out to eat or drink at the nearby bars and restaurants.
I could borrow a kettle. There is also a gym.
Excellent place

2022-06-03Awesome little cinema inside the Roxy Hotel! I’ve stayed at the Roxy and been to their late night bar quite a few times, and the cinema within the building is a nice touch. The single screen auditorium is solidly underground, and adds to the ambiance created by the small audience size and deep red walls. 10/10 would recommend seeing anything that peaks your interest for the experience alone. Concessions stand is also available with a decently priced candy wine and drinks selection.

2022-02-14I dont even know why I used to go farther and never went to this cinema to watch movies. Well sometimes we make bad decisions. LolOne thing I love about this theatre is its huge and beautiful inside. The parking space is good. The actual cinema is nice. The seats are better compared to most if the movie houses I have been to and the restrooms are so clean. No gross seats and empty toilet paper dispensers. Employees are nice.

2022-04-09A single screen theater adorned with velvet curtains and dripping with beautiful atmosphere, this is the ideal cinema. Nestled under the historic Roxy Hotel its hard to not fall under the spell of cinema once you step foot within.They show movies the way theyre meant to be seen: in stunning, whirring 35mm celluloid. They offer a 230/ year unlimited pass that after just one visit, Im heavily considering. Theaters like the Alamo and metrograph get all the attention as landmark theaters but if you want to get a drink and feel wrapped up in a blanket of cinema, come to the Roxy.

2022-06-19I can’t say enough about this place. The concession and check in staff are dressed to the 9s, the theater itself is beautiful and the presentation of a 35mm classic was impeccable. We came all the way from Texas for this and it didn’t disappoint for a moment. My hat is off to the staff from beginning to end. A must for any cinephile.

2021-12-01A bit pricey, not everything on the concession menu was available, and there was no butter for the popcorn. However, it is a real cool spot that creates an intimate cinema setting. Great selection of films to see. I would highly recommend this place, just make sure to fill up on food before you get there.

2021-08-31Excellent movie house here in our area! I proved it when I went to your movie house just a week ago. It has a good place to watch a movie, very refreshing, the seats were very comfortable. Their staff was also very professional and friendly. Very strongly recommended to everyone! I must surely introduce you to everyone!

2021-12-10Located way downtown. Be at the front of the E train if traveling from uptown. Hotel stuffed with billionaires so dress up or get dirty looks from snobs. Popcorn ok... They need pies desserts ...sandwiches?

2018-05-12Cool little theater that I imagine doesn’t make money, or at least not much, but it’s a nice perk of being a hotel guest. They show small-release movies, sometimes ones that aren’t showing anywhere else in New York. They’re one of a few theaters that do e-ticketing with MoviePass, which is nice, although they don’t do assigned seating. The seats are the red plush variety, and low, but the springs were still working and there was actually a lot of leg room. The fabric is a little scratchy. I thought he sound was a bit loud, could have been the movie. The picture quality is fine, no complaints. The front row is several years back from the screen, which isn’t huge, so no one will be too close, but the back rows are pretty far back. Still, no one will strain their neck looking up. They sell typical movie snacks and popcorn, although I’m not sure how fresh it is. There’s also a great coffee place in the hotel lobby and one can obviously bring a coffee into the theater. If they are showing something I want to see, I wouldn’t hesitate to come back.
