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,

Great value. This inn is not as fancy as near by lodging but is well maintained and the staff was great. Much more affordable than many of the neighboring properties and just as good!

Very nice room, (A/C was rather noisy) Hot tub..was hot, nice pool. Breakfast was just basic, bagel/toast/muffin. Have had better in other nearby hotels (waffle maker etc.) The staff was excellent. The Mini fridge had no freezer section for my ice pack to refreeze.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at The Colonial Inn! Everyone working there was super friendly and so helpful! Charlene greeted us at the front desk and was a pleasure. Our room was clean and comfortable! I loved the bed! We both got a great night of rest. The continental breakfast had so many options but my favorite was the fresh fruit. We highly recommend staying here!

The Colonial is a great spot in OGT for a stay. It boasts a generous lobby with games, drinks for purchase and a wrap-around porch. It also has a small heated pool and hot tub. We were expecting to be able to see the water but from the ground floor you cannot. Overall it’s a good hotel.
