A cinema inside a hotel in Dubai so you won’t have to ‘go out’ to watch movies. Reel Cinema is offering their first-hotel cinema and it is located in Rove Downtown hotel.

Although this is not the first hotel-cinema in Dubai (heard that there’s a private cinema at Jumeirah Zabeel Saray), this is still great news knowing that there’s more options for guests and UAE residents (yes, they hotel-cinema will accept non-checked-in guests) to watch movies.

Emaar Entertainment has announced this expansion to cater to the needs of urban travellers as well as residents seeking more options for leisure and entertainment.

We have been to the newly renovated Reel Cinemas in The Dubai Mall and they were quite a spectacle at the lobby with high-tech flat screens as well as the digital ticketing and food system. We have yet to write about our experience there. Anyway, this cinema inside a hotel definitely adds to the list of highlights from Reel Cinemas.

Rove Downtown is the first hotel under Rove Hotels, a contemporary midscale brand, developed as a joint venture between Meraas and Emaar Properties PJSC.

The cinema hotel is scheduled to be completed in 2018 and will include 49 seats. This would actually be a great opportunity for corporate gatherings and group events that cater to an intimate crowd. The lobby lounge making a great pre-cinema area for meeting before the actual event. Surely a nice location especially for private functions and events.
