Cinema-ul "Elvire Popesco"

Open more than 55 years ago and renovated in 2012, this cinema hall of French Institute in Bucharest it's a great alternative to most of the mainstream cinemas in the city. The only down point I can quote is that there's no nominal seats on your tickets and - if you are a couple or o bunch of friends - sometimes you will have to spread throughout the place, seeking for a convenient chair.

Fantastic spot to visit the Cinema. This is now my second favorite spot to see a flick in Bucharest. The seats are extremely comfortable sound is great and the atmosphere is calm and quiet. All the staff are friendly and helpful. The lounge is clean and bathrooms well kept. They also have covered bike parking and nice garden area. Highly recommend and will definitely be back

Very special cinema with a unique atmosphere in the heart of Bucharest. My favourite cinema in town. This cinema has a very unique interior architecture and very comfortable seats. Great selection of films and nice audience. No food or beverages are allowed. Good ticket prices and you can easily buy them online. If it’s the first time you are visiting: the cinema is placed just behind the main building which is the French Institute. Bonus: last time I visited there was also a cute cat.

Best selection of movies and extremely comfortable chairs, ambiance. Highly recommend it!

Always a pleasure to be back & I especially appreciate the European film festivals. Keep up the good work!

A cozy cinema and a great alternative to the ones you would find in malls, you can bring your own snacks and water and it has a good & diverse selection of movies.

It was amazing! It is called “cine-concert”, we definitely recomand! Great activity for families with children!!! We laughed a lot!

I was running late cause of the public transport and the guy at the entrance didn’t let me in anymore cause the movie started already and he was quite rude
