With a total of 28 gaming tables planned at casino Shangri-La in Batumi, the vanue will become the largest in the city. The casino opening is planned for mid-summer 2023. The current record is held by Eclipse casino with a total of 24 gaming tables. Another casino project Maximus will have 26 casino tables. As of today, the Black Sea Vegas hosts a total of 11 operational casinos:
- Golden Palace casino & hotel
- Eclipse casino
- Peacec casino
- Casino International
- Royal casino & hotel
- Mandarin casino & hotel
- Leogrand casino
- Princess casino & hotel
- Iveria casino
- Empire casino
- Otium casino
The biggest question is whether there will be enough casino players to fill up all of these casinos. At the begging of 2023 the local Adjara authorities significantly increased table and slot taxes, so breaking even on casino operational costs is now more difficult than ever before.
