Based on recent chat feedback, Orbi Beach Tower in Batumi is considered one of the better Orbi buildings, with long elevator waits being the main drawback. If you stay near the Hilton area, expect possible daytime construction noise from a new Orbi building nearby.
The newest feedback says Orbi Beach Tower is one of the better Orbi properties, and many horror stories about “Orbi” actually refer to other buildings. When booking on sites like Booking, check the exact tower name and address because apartments are listed by different hosts and management companies.
According to travelers who stayed in Orbi, the main practical downside is slow elevators, especially during busy hours. If you only need a place for 3–4 nights, that can still be an important factor even if the apartment itself looks fine.
