How to Beat the Heat When Traveling in Europe This Summer | Condé Nast Traveler

"Home to one of Europe’s largest cinemas, this grand hall delivers the bliss I want from a cool, airy theater where I can lounge and forget the heat." - Anoushka Dutta

"Revamped from top to toe, this city-centre institution is still going strong under the aegis of a family team, namely three brothers – one in the dining room (an MOF), one in the kitchen and one is a pastry chef! The culinary lineup aims to highlight the gastronomic heritage of the Gers region: raw and cooked scallops; Bigorre black pork and leeks; duck and foie gras pie, sliced at the table; baked Alaska, flambéed in front of you! Foodies with an appetite will be delighted to learn that the sauce boats are left on the table – irresistible with the house made bread! Simpler fare at Le 9ème brasserie." - Michelin Inspector

These Are Europe’s Most Beautiful Cinemas, According To Time Out

Described as what ‘may be one of Paris’s most cherished cultural institutions, a splash of Times Square colour in the city’s austere Grands Boulevards district’, this cinema tops Time Out’s list of the world’s and Europe’s most beautiful cinemas, standing out for its vivid, showy presence in an otherwise austere area of the city. - Liv Kelly

An insanely lit movie theater (specifically theater 2)

An amazing cinema! It is one of the biggest and greatest cinemas not only in Europe but in the world. Every cinephile should visit this place, especially to experience the grande salle 🤗✨

Watched Superman in VIP on the Grand theater. $50 euros. Expensive but worth the one time experience. There was a huge line outside. With VIP, we got escorted in past the line, got popcorn and a drink that was included, and to our seats. The VIP is located on the 2nd floor and general admission is on the 3rd floor. The screen is big, but the sound is not as great as this theater was not meant for movies.

Amazing atmosphere for a movie. We had an amazing experience today with our family group of 9 people. No wait. Staff was very helpful and friendly. We highly recommend and we will definitely return!

Large cinema and concert hall. The concert hall is incredible and the lobby is beautiful but a bit cramped. The location is perfect, right next to a metro station. There's also a parking nearby but it's rather expensive if you spend more than a few hours there (daily rate was about €52, I think). We were surprised to find out that some of the seats next to the hallways were actually fold out seats. A heck less comfortable than the normal plush seats (but you pay full price anyway).

Love the building, especially the grand room and the infinity room is quite good. People start queuing up for when going to see a movie in the grand room but there plenty of seats available. And the light show in the infinity room is cute

Humongous and beautiful movie theatre in Paris. Historically significant and now protected as a historical monument. I really enjoyed the guided tour, and the view from the roof is a nice touch.

The studio tour is a great way to spend an hour in the back part of the theatre on this electronically guided tour. The technology is very clever and while the participation in making a movie is a little silly it is great fun and good for families.

The popcorn was unusually good, for a French cinema, the service was adequate and the ambiance was magical. I was overwhelmed by the Rex's history as a 2800 seat propaganda center during the German occupation of Paris and later as a POW facility. Knowing its history made it difficult to watch The Fall Guy The facility is almost a hundred years old and it feels it. The seats are old, small, and uncomfortable. In its proper context, I'm sure it was magical in its day. It is a one time experience.

Unfortunately a concert pushed films to the smaller cinemas.. Cinema 2 still very nice, old seats, nice medium sized screen. Will try the main venue later this week. Attractive exterior.

Hands down, the best place to see a movie in Paris that I've been to so far. If you're in the grande salle, you have a starry night above you, amazing decoration around you, and tons of room as it is a huge huge huge space. The screen they pull down is humongous, so sit somewhere in the middle or your eyes will be switching back and forth. ;) You can order tickets online beforehand, around 11 euros/adult.

The appropriately-named Grand Rex is a lot of things. Here at 1 Poissoniere it's a grand old theatre, holding a couple of thousand seats for watching concerts. It's also got screens for films. Just a few steps down the road, at number 5, there's also a nightclub (http://www.qype.co.uk/place/80658-Rex-Club-Paris) . And a little farther down is a bar (http://www.qype.co.uk/place/preview/fr-796384-rex-bar-le-paris) . But the theatre is beautiful. Holding about 3000 people in several steep tiers, it's plush, old, and ornate. North African frescos cover both side walls. The ceiling, high above, is deep azure with a few starry pinpricks of light. The stage looks like thousands of combined years of struggling showbiz have strode across them. It's old, but that feels right. There are escalators to take you to the upper levels, and bars on each level. I've just come back from seeing Tom Waits play the Grand Rex, so perhaps I'm still feeling the effects. But I get the feeling that this rich, velvet, burgundy old hall gives a little magic to whomever plays there.

One of the best known and loved in Paris, the Rex is truly a Deco palace with chandeliers, sumptuous armchairs and even faux castles (really). When you visit, you must walk up to the screen and look back into the huge theatre itself. With so many seats to fill, the program is necessarily mainstream and always VF. This is the place to go to watch a home-grown action-adventure film (surely a new Banlieue 13 is due out soon!)
