Do you mean Cosy Beach Hotel Pattaya.? If so it is on a hill between Pattaya and Jomtien.There are two buildings one with the sea view and smaller ones in the side wing with a crappy view of the car park.The hotel has a nice pool,swim up bar and garden with stairs leading down to a little beach .The breakfast was good but lots of people on the weekend ,so make sure you get up early then .They also do a romantic dinner by the pool.There are many shops,little restaurants in front of the hotel where you can eat and get cheaper beer .


On the negative side to get to town it cost 100 baht per person by songthow and 200 if you go or come back later at night.


You will probably get some rain as it is the rainy season but it shouldn't rain all day.


Cosy is not far from Pattaya view point,Big Buddha temple and Jomtien Beach.Whats in like at the cosy beach hotel?
It may depend on what you intend to do. If your intentions are to just hang out at the hotel and not go anywhere else then it will probably be okay.





However, if you intend to visit malls, street vendors, small shops, go clubbing or bar hopping - you know actually leave your hotel often - then another hotel may be a better choice! You are off the normal cheap baht bus route so you are usually screwed for cheap transportation.





My advice is if you want to walk to many places to just get a hotel in Jomtien (fewer bars) where you can swim at the beach or get a hotel in Pattaya City where you have more places to walk to but a beach you can not swim at (sunbathing, shopping, malls, movie theaters, restaurants, jogging, street vendors, etc. okay though.) Baht bus taxi service in Pattaya City is only 10 baht for set routes.





If you are comfortable with the price then find another place at the same price range where you can walk to most places and have a cheap ride.





Good luck.
