1 / 2Silky Otter Cinemas Orakei
đ Orakei, Auckland
Silky Otter Cinemas Orakei seats guests in wide reclining lazboy-style chairs with cosy blankets, personal staff attention, and an outdoor harbour deck for pre-film views. A lift serves guests unable to manage the stairs.
Great Cinema. Friendly and Professional staff, cozy blankets, comfortable large seats, and good food and drink. Everything you need in the modern cinema experience. I'm Commander Burcher and this is my favourite cinema on the Citadel.
đ Family Action Verdict
Best for families wanting a relaxed, unhurried cinema experience with genuine personal service rather than automated ticketing and anonymous seating. The reclining chairs and blankets suit younger children who need to wriggle. The harbour deck is a strong pre-film draw.

âVery nice welcome and personal attention given. Cinema 2 afforded nice spacious seating and lazyboy style leg rests. Great views from the deck and a lift for those unable to manage 4 flights of steps!â

âAt silky otter last night. Good theatre BUT in spite of advising patrons via "Morgan" adverts that blankets were available if you were cold, there were none as they were at the dry cleaners and belive me, the cinema was cold n did not heat up in spite of being advised once everyone was seated, it would. Why does the cinema have to be so cold? Also advised was a small light for convenience to see where food etc was, don't think they are installed at the Oraki one. If you are going to advertise the perks, it would be good to have them available for use.â
