The Finney Hotel, in Woodbury, Kentucky, is a historic I-house building built in 1890. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) in 1995.[1]

It is located near the Green River in Woodbury Park, an 8.5 acres (3.4 ha) Butler County park, which is also home to two buildings that are NRHP-listed as U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Superintendent's House and Workmen's Office.

It is a two story wood-frame building. It has also been known as McKinney Hotel. It was deemed "important from c. 1890-1931 because it illustrates the economic development of Woodbury as a turn-of-the-century river town. The hotel is the only nineteenth century commercial building remaining in Woodbury."[2]
