We stayed in the Norseman Resort in Ogunquit last weekend for the first time. The reviews were very good and it is on the ocean. You can lay on the beach, go for a walk along the beach, do some shopping, go out for breakfast and supper and never need your car. The resort is not new and there are... More

We stayed here last September and love this location! When you walk off the beach and go back to your room, the sand goes with you! That's how close to the beach this place is! Our room was very clean and had a great view, we will stay here again!

My wife and I have been staying at the Norseman Resort for over 20 years. We stay about 2 times a year. The Sundowner is nice as it affords a direct view of the ocean. We however, prefer to stay on the top floor of the Dunes. It affords a nice side view of the ocean and also the river.... More

This hotel is original but clean..it is old rustic ocean view with charm...the tide most reaches their fron door. It is a piece of paradise. Old world charm in modern day. So family oriented. The town is charming and the water is breath taking!!!

This mediocre hotel has a spectacular location, right on a beautiful ocean beach and only a few minutes from the restaurants, bars and stores of the town. The view from the upper floor rooms is awesome, and you can sit outside on the common linked balcony and enjoy the sun and the scenery. Ideal for a family beach vacation. The... More

While the Norseman is dated and basic, a 3 story hotel with various options, right on the beach, ocean or river views, and short easy walk to one of the most charming towns in Maine, the ocean mere steps from the front door, and a 5-10 minute walk to the northern terminus of the Marginal Way (with Perkins Cover on...

Great spot, right on the beach, the only one. Clean, quiet and well maintain. A 5 minutes walk away from the main street and restaurants. We have been there for 3 nights at Canadian thanksgiving. We had a room on the water facing building on the third floor.

Went for a short trip and was pleasantly surprised by the "side oceanview". The staff was more than helpful from the time of reservation , to check in, to helping with dinner suggestions. As other reviewers have said the rooms are dated BUT execptionally clean! Our room was huge with an amazing view of the ocean. We went in October... More

Norseman's location is it's biggest selling point. Free internet access is also a plus. The beds were uncomfortable, at best. Staff friendly. Parking sufficient. We are repeat visitors and enjoy the low key atmosphere.
