Movie junkies may flock to the Toronto International Film Festival to catch the next Oscar-worthy blockbuster, but to truly escape into the magic of the movies, you need the right setting.

With over a million properties on our site, we found the best accommodations for movie buffs. Overwhelm your senses with 7D screenings, see your favourite flick in a whole new light (under the moonlit sky) or escape to a designated crying room when a movie gets the tears flowing. These hotels have really gone over the top when it comes to entertainment. So forget the sticky seats and stale popcorn - you will never watch another movie the same way again after catching a flick in any of these unbelievable hotel screening rooms:

Constance Moofushi promises movie goers a unique luxury cinema experience. While basking in the moonlight of a private Maldivian beach, guests can choose from a selection of more than 100 films for this unforgettable evening. To further fulfill all cinematic expectations, indulge in gourmet selections served right to your private spot on the beach. So cozy up to that special someone and enjoy a motion picture masterpiece like never before.

Ditch those stiff traditional theatre seats for the luxurious recliners that fill The Soho Hotel's two feature screening rooms. The unique red leather and cowhide seats coupled with only the highest quality cinematic projection, create the idyllic backdrop to stretch out and enjoy a timeless classic.

If tearjerkers are your genre of choice, Tokyo's Mitsui Garden Yotsuya has the perfect room for you. The hotel's "crying rooms" let's you wear your heart on your sleeve in private. Stocked with an array of emotional dramas guaranteed to get the waterworks flowing, the rooms also offers a complete kit to dry those eyes with makeup removers, steam eye masks and luxury tissues.

The secluded outdoor nook, known as The Sandbox at The Miami Beach EDITION, is the perfect escape to catch your favourite flick. A fresh take on outdoor theatre, guests are invited to sink into palm tree sandwiched hammocks and plush outdoor beds for this candlelit cinematic experience. The beachy atmosphere and lush surroundings are guaranteed to make you never want to watch another movie anywhere else.

When the sun goes down, the Cinema Paradiso at Soneva Kiri lights up. This open-air theatre boasts an over-the-water screen, set on the waters of a lagoon reservoir. So nibble on an offering from the gourmet comfort food menu, snuggle into the cascading cushions of the jungle auditorium and return to the old Hollywood traditions of cinema under the stars.

Inside this vibrant hotel, guests will find a state-of-the-art screening room with advanced technology in sound, projection and digital capabilities including 3D. The 99 seat theatre hosts a weekly film club on Sunday nights, complete with dinner and cocktails. And if you're lucky, maybe the hotel will play a classic NYC flick like Breakfast at Tiffany's, giving you a new perspective on the city that never sleeps.
