        The room is clean. There are two swimming pools which are facing the lake. ”

        It was so pleasant eating at the dining hall. We could enjoy the cool wind and the view is fantastic. You could also purchase lobsters from the people who sell them on their sampan. As the lobsters are fresh, they taste so delicious. You could ask the hotel chef to cook the lobsters for you at reasonable price. I have stayed at the hotel twice.

        The location is very strategic with stunning views of Lake Toba. Canopy is needed especially access to the lobby so that guests do not get rained on when getting on and off the vehicle. The sofa in the room (I and my family occupy the suit type) there is only one sofa, it needs to be added, the size does not need to be large, which is important to be able to sit comfortably with family members. In addition it needs to be equipped, make-up table chair, tissue room, trash can and spoon cups. Overall this hotel is quite satisfying especially if coupled with the completeness that we mentioned.

        Awful experience”

        This hotel should be your last choice if you are looking for a quiet and a pleasant stay at lake Toba. We left the hotel 4 days earlier (we originally booked 10 days) as it became unbearable to stay a day longer. Really noisy (loud speakers until midnight) and overcrowded by local tourism who take over the entire hotel, specially on weekends. Although the rooms are comfortable and clean, the overall experience was very disappointing.

        Best part of the hotel is the location. Located right beside lake toba with good view of sunset and sunrise. However, when we reached, the glass shelves in our room is shattered. They shifted us to another room, which later on we found black stains on the blanket, ants all over the tables n floor, spider web on the ceiling. There is no phone to call housekeeping from the hotel room. So we have to walk to the front desk to ask for housekeeping. Housekeeper come to our room with a can of Baygon and showing a super bad attitude. We also discover that the room couldn't be locked. In the morning, we watched the staff preparing of the breakfast buffet spread. They clean the tables n chairs with BROOM! Overall, it was an unpleasant one night stay

        The hotel facilities, beautiful view and room comfort

        Samosir Cottages was the best hotel we stayed during our 2 week holidays in North Sumatera. we really had the best experience there. The hotel was modern, clean with good facilities such as 2 nice and clean swimming pools with gorgeous view over lake Toba, big, nice restaurant, nice comfortable terraces to enjoy the beauty of Lake Toba,table tennis. We could also enjoy live music on Wednesday and Saturday evenings in the restaurant. The room was nice, clean with a bath tub, tv, balcony and very comfortable bed and linen of high quality and long desk, many electricity power plugs, and a fan. They did not provide AC since it was cool there. The room was quiet since it was not so close to the lake but we could enjoy the best view of the lake from their nice terraces. We are looking forward to staying at this hotel again in the future. Thank you Samosir Cottages and Agoda who had given us nice rate.

        Spectacular view but a few improvements needed ”

        A friend of mine and I stayed here for 5 nights. The complex is huge and beautifully designed!... though one has to be prepared to negotiate numerous flights of stairs several times a day, and at times with luggage. There are a couple of very nice swimming pools and the view of the lake is spectacular! In terms of view, this is an amazing location!... and one can walk in about 1 or 2 minutes to a few shops and nice little restaurants nearby. The room was very basic but fine. The whole place is well maintained and kept very clean. There are a few problems though... 1. There was an unpleasant stench: the smell of sewage coming out of the bathroom plumbing system; 2. We had no Internet connection in our room; we had to go to the reception area for Wifi. Charlie at the reception has been very helpful and accommodating; we are very grateful. Despite a few needed improvements, this is still a good place to stay while on Samosir Island. We would return.

        The room is very clean and the view from inside is beautiful (fyi I'm staying at Deluxe Room which is located right in front of the lake) The only suggestion is I hope that they vary the breakfast menu. I came twice to Samosir Cottage and the breakfast were exactly the same as my first visit. Overall it is a nice place to stay.

        A Grand Hotel in Tuk Tuk”

        The hotel was so big, interesting view and friendly staff. I could say this is the most grand view hotel in Tuk Tuk and Samosir. If it is within your budget you should stay here. A lot of places to hang around chatting with friends or doing your works. Recommendation: We stayed in Deluxe Room. It would be better if they equip the room with cup for making hot water since they already prepared a water heater in the room. Complaint: They give us a new building but one of the room (146) has a broken shower head. When we lodge a complaint at the reception in Friday morning (18/01/19), the guy at the counter assure us they will attend to the issue however it was not being resolved till we checked out. He did not even noted down our complaint. I rate the staff as excellent for the overall but this one particular guy is unhelpful.

        Expensive hotel for 3 star standard”

        + Clean spacious room + Clean hotel grounds such as pavillions, courtyards, swimming pool, lounge chairs etc + jetty for ferry service is directly in front of hotel + hotel is situated along the lake shore, direct and unblocked view of the lake from room + everything in room works fine. aircon, tv, fridge, water heater. bring own toiletries. - Really bad food. Same dishes everyday for breakfast: fried rice, fried noodles, cheese spaghetti, dry and hard bread with jam or margarine, cut fruits, coffee tea, cordial drink - staff were polite but not welcoming. no smiles at all. - kettle in room were dirty with stains from previous user. - housekeeping did not refill our water on our second day even though we called to ask for it. - not sure if hotel has wifi as they did not mention or inform us. did not see any wifi router in room. we survived bcos we got data card at airport beforehand. Overall, we enjoyed our stay in Samosir. Hotel-wise, our guide mentioned other better resorts such as Carolina or Toledo.
