The Conway Hotel is a historic hotel building at 108 Courthouse Square in Murfreesboro, Arkansas. Built in 1913, it was the first brick hotel building in the rural town; it was built in response to an influx of diamond miners into the area after the Crater of Diamonds was discovered. It is a two-story structure with modest Craftsman styling.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1]
