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

I had a very good trip at Lake Toba eventhough it took me 5 hours plus from Medan due to raining and flood. It was tiring but fun though. I reached Toba at night and Mr.Van was there waiting at the harbour. He welcomed us and bring us straight to the hotel. I had a nice room, arranged by Mr.Bloom.... More

I've made a mistake with my booking at Samosir Villa Resort, so was then transferred to Samosir Cottage, which both these hotels are owned by the same person, Mr Bloom. I've paid Rp.500,000 at SVR for a room + extra bed, so I asked the staff of SVR whether can I get a refund, the staff there was very friendly... More

Not so clean hotel. Noicy. The staff tried to sell us drugs before asking us more important stuff like if we would like the key to the room for an example. The location is beautiful and there is a nice show in the evening. The food was tasty and the waterfront close by. I would find a better hotel nearby.
