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.

It is located near the Green River in Woodbury Park, an 8.5acres 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 theonly nineteenth century commercial building remaining in Woodbury."[1]
