1 / 3HOYTS Melbourne Central
📍 Melbourne, VIC
Fully upgraded cinema complex at Melbourne Central featuring IMAX, ScreenX, D-BOX motion seats, and LUX premium dining sessions with reclining chairs. Central location with parking access.
I went to watch Wicked. The movie theater was really clean and the seats were so comfortable. I got for like 8$ more a reclining seat, really recommend. I bought my drink at Cole’s as the prices where quiet high, however the popcorn there was amazing.
🏆 Family Action Verdict
Best for families wanting a premium CBD cinema with reclining seats as standard. IMAX is the standout addition and worth booking for action or event films. ScreenX works best from centre seats — side positions miss the wraparound effect. LUX dining is inconsistent; the standard recliner upgrade at a modest extra cost delivers better value.

“It's only taken more than a decade of being rundown but Hoyts Melbourne Central has finally been upgraded to a modern cinema. The addition and quality of adding IMAX is a game changer!”

“Tried the Screen X a couple times now. Definitely adds immersiveness to the movie. Where you are seated is important, if want the best experience, get the centre seats. Side seats will not give you the immersive experience. Have tried both and would not recommend spending money if you are seated at the side seats that are close to the wall.”

“I came for the MIFF film Dreams and the atmosphere was good. Female toilets were quite limited with only two booths. The film was alright ~~~ Dreams was about the limitation of illegal immigrants, lust, control, power, and love. In the end, I don’t think it was love for her ; it was probably more of a selfish lust.”
