Travel and Lodging
The University of Central Arkansas is located in beautiful Conway, AR just off of I-40 about 25 miles north of Little Rock, the capital of Arkansas. Finding UCA is easy, and parking is plentiful. There are many places to stay and some great restaurants in the "City of Colleges".
Hotels
We recommend staying just east of I-40 off of Oak Street. There you'll find a Hampton Inn, Country Inn and Suites, Best Western, Hilton Garden Inn, and more. There's plenty of restaurants and shopping within walking distance of these hotels. They are also the closest hotels to campus.
We've secured a few special rates for the following Conway hotels. Simply ask for the "South Central Regional ITEA" rate.
Hampton Inn - $85.00 per night
Country Inn and Suites - $95.00 per night
Days Inn - $69.99 per night

*The Hampton Inn and Holiday Inn should be reserved by 2/18, the Days Inn and Country Inn by 2/15 for this special rate.
