Great location! Everything in town/beach is easily walkable. Close to the Marginal Way ocean path. Our room was a little small and dated, but was clean and comfortable.

I liked the fact that they had a hot tub and I loved the firepit area after a long day of traveling. I also liked the citrus water available in the lobby. However, if you're not in the main house, be prepared for some wear and tear if you're staying in one of the surrounding buildings. The location of the hotel is great in terms of walking to the Marginal Way/Perkins Cove. It was good for a one-night stay.

The Colonial Inn is an older historic building, but well maintained and wonderful staff. It was clean and quiet. Easy walk to shopping and restaurants AND the access to the Marginal Way is steps away. Bonus-freshly baked chocolate chip cookies daily between 2 and 4. Coffee always available and during daytime hours infused water. Would definitely stay there again.

We stayed one night on our way down the Maine coast. Upon entering our room, we were hit in the face with a musty smell likely from the old carpet and furnishings. It got much worse when using the air conditioner which provided a stream of moldy but cool air. The location of the Inn is ideal with a few minute walk to the Marginal way. The back building where our room was located is badly in need of renovation considering the $350+ nightly cost. Will be choosing better lodgings next time visiting Ogunquit.
