Love this cinema! It's old-world yet recently renovated and so very cosy! Great customer service whenever I go and the ticket prices are cheaper than other larger cinemas. The fact that it holds multi-language film festivals is a draw card. It also offers memberships and generates events so that sometimes you're only paying $5-$10 for a new release. Just wow!

A wonderful cinema that always screens a diverse range of films. It is always clean and well maintained, and the cafe and seating areas are a wonderful addition. Tickets are affordable.

This lovely little Cinema puts the big ones to shame. We have been here several times now and always enjoy arriving early to have a muffin and coffee in the cafe. The staff are very friendly and certainly cant complain about the service.

Totally agree! Although now that the word's out, we may find parking a little more difficult!

This old fashioned cinema is great to see movies with friends or partners. It has a good feel about it and you can see some of the more refined typed movies.

My girlfriend and I were a little bit early as we weren't sure how long it would take us to get there so we decided to have a treat of coffee and cake at the Cafe attached to the cinema whilst we waited for the show to start. Lovely!!

It is a great cinema, we met the cinematographer and he was a colorful character that brightened our visit, Mark I think his name was. We will go back many times for the great service, comfortable seats, personal care and delicious hot chocolates.

Approximate cost: $20

This is a real old style cinema, when i attend the movies here i feel as though i am going back in time. it makes the experience so much nicer. it is comfortable and they serve wine and cake in a a little cafe to the side of the cinema. well worth it.

I really like this cinema. It cosier than Villiage and Hoys and not as busy. The cinemas are nice and seats comfortable. There's a cafe also, so you can have a coffee/drink before the movie.

Lovely old building in a good location. After the renovations it has became alot better, yet the smaller then usual screens in some of the cinemas are a bit disappointing. You will pay full price for half a movie screen often. Other then that, lovely place and my cinema of choice.

Approximate cost: $10

Sonce recent renovations to palace it has become by far my favorite cinema. It shows pretty much all the latest release movies as well as art house movies you could only otherwise see at the nova in the city. Very nice comfy cinemas aswell.
