Next time I would definitely book first class, the other seats are pretty hard. So a night ride where one wants to sleep is less comfortable in anything else but 1st class.

Hot food and drinks required for so long trip - 5-6 hours.
Besides, cold fridge (both) get empty within a 2-3 hours... so, they doesn't help much..

I had booked business class but could not feel the impact of it although it was approx. 3-4 times than second class ticket. Wifi was not working. No Latte Coffee was available (hostess mentioned that only available option is Americano). Except table between the seats I could not find any other benefit of travelling with business class.

I can't think of a better way to get from Batumi to Tbilisi, both in terms of cost and comfort! The carriages are spacious and there is a snack machine. The only problem was the lack of seat selection when booking tickets online. There were four of us, two adults and two children, and the system scattered us all over the carriage, even though there was a free seat next to one of the given seats, which of course we took advantage of.

Лучше транспорта от Батуми до Тбилиси не придумаешь и по стоимости, и по комфорту! Просторные вагоны, есть аппарат со снеками. Единственная проблема - это отсутствие возможности выбора мест при бронировании билетов онлайн. Нас было четверо 2 взрослых и 2 ребенка, а система разбросала нас по всему вагону, при этом было свободное место рядом с одним из выданных мест, чем мы конечно и воспользовались.
