This trip I've walked around Tuk-Tuk searching for my ideal sleeping place and visited many guesthouse/hotels. I stayed 1 night here, another night at Romlan and then Liberto. I'll say this hotel is better than those selling room at 30,000-70,000 IDR but Samosir Cottage also offer low cost room. The published price is 100,000-120,000 IDR for a room which you... More

I spent a few days on Samosir Island and visited Samosir Cottages several times for food and tourist information. They offer a decent selection on their menu, and on Saturday night they had a really great live band on. I also used them for information which was where they really excelled; as all the other reviews mention Mr Bloom was... More

It's nice place to stay, good view from the balcony.very clean room and friendly stuff. the food was good, we really enjoy our time, when we stay there hopefully coming back there again. all the room nice,we really recommend this place.

Stayed here and loved it. The enigmatic Mr Bloom was more than helpful on several occasions. He warned us about the possible noise from next door (Saturday), we heard nothing. There is always the possibility of hearing something from somewhere. All I can say is check out your room location. This is for any place you stay. We stayed in... More

We stayed at another place before Samosir Cottages which was fine also[ Romlan]. At first we were hesitant to stay due to some trip advisor readings, but when we went and had a look around we decided to stay. Mr Bloom held a room for us and warned us that it may be noisy on Saturday night because of next... More

I stayed here for 6 nights and enjoyed my time very much. Helpful friendly stuff, clean rooms (I had the cheapest rate but still very nice), beautiful garden with lake entry, help with bookings. When I got sick, called the doctor. Cheap and good food. Good WiFi connection. Can recommend very much.

I have stayed in this hotel few days and I really enjoyed it. The rooms were clean, big bathroom but the staff is the best. Really nice, friendly and helpful. There is good selection of food, very tasty and good prices. It is positioned by the lake so you can swim. I will be coming back.

Mr Bloom loud but a friendly person who run the cottage. Nice place with very reasonable price. We stayed for 2 nights. They have a live band on Saturday night with Mr Bloom playing one of the instrument. They played both traditional Batak music and modern numbers too. The cottage is near to everything including bookstore, pharmacy, restaurant and grocery... More
