Requested beach-facing in advance but did not get. Also, we generally stay in hotel, but this time we were placed in separate building which was not as nice as previous stay. Beds were very comfortable, bath/room/building quite dated.

The reception was excellent. Not the best hotel on the main strip, but looked like the best for the price. Nice breakfast…cookies in the afternoon…great location in Ogunquit…central to everything. All of the staff were great.

Goid small hotel/motel central in Ogunguit
Main hotel building nice, motel like buildings externally and grounds needing a littke tlc. Was a bit disappointed with the location of the room, was patio but wouldn't really have wanted to sit out there as no view. Room though was large and clean. Bathroom and shower just okay. Continental buffet breakfast absolutely fine and staff very pleasant.

The property is centrally located on Shore road in the heart of down town Ogunquit,. Easy walking distance to shops, restaurants., beach and to the famous marginal way tail which follow the coast line. The staff at the Colonial Inn is amazing. From our check in to checking out they provided excellent service. We will be going back ....

The colonial Inn seems run down but it was clean. We liked having the pool, fire pit, shuffle board court as extra amenities to take advantage of. Loved the daily live music from 4-6 pm. It is definitely an excellent location walkable to town. The beach is a bit of a walk but doable. Wish the breakfast could be better. The Inn is missing a hot breakfast variety. Overall, it was adequate for our 4 day stay.

A GREAT SPOT!
The Colonial Inn is paradise in Ogunquit! i have stayed here 3 times and will definately be back after school closes next year or maybe even in May for a weekend. The staff is so nice, Ashley the manager is awesome. And what can I say about the chocolate chip cookies offered at 2PM!I love the wrap around front porch to enjoy morning coffee or takeout I got from The Village Market in the evening.

We thoroughly enjoyed our brief stay at the Colonial. The one issue that was unfortunate was that the guest staying the room above us (we were in 613 ) were loud and rambunctious until nearly 2:00 am. We have stayed at the Colonial many times over the years without incident so we will chalk it up to an isolated event. It did however, disturb our sleep and the experience of being in Ogunquit,
