Pleasant stay at Gokhon”

We definitely enjoyed our stay at Gokhon Guest House. We got a room on the second floor, with a beautiful lake view. You can also go down for a dip/swim in the lake. Facilities were basic, hot shower available. Wifi available too. They don't have a restaurant at the guest house, but there are other places to eat nearby, so it's not a big deal. They also have bike rentals available, so we rented a motorbike from them for IDR100,000 a day (around USD7-8). The best part about Gokhon is definitely their services. The guest house is run by a local family, and they were super friendly and helpful. They also have a "library" at the guest house, so you can check out some books to pass the time. The only downside to Gokhon is that it's right next to the main road, so it can get pretty noisy with the motorbikes zooming around, especially at night. We were there in August, and there was some construction going on next to Gokhon, so that caused some noise in the daytime too, but we would be out anyway, so that didn't bother us too much. Overall, we enjoyed our stay at Gokhon, and would go back again!

Central location with a great view looking at the lake”

Convenient location at Tuk Tuk. The balcony view facing the lake is superb! The owner will wait for you when your ferry arrives at the jetty of the hotel and will arrange the ferry from Samosir to Tiga Raja when you check out. You can walk to the nearby restaurants for breakfast and dinner. This hotel provides a day tour with a private van with a cost so that you can tour around Samosir Island easily. The water pressure during morning shower will be low if the other guests shower around the same time. Otherwise it is a good hotel and will recommend others to stay here.
