Ellis Hall is an administration building on the campus of Hendrix College in Conway, Arkansas. It is basically a large two-story house, with Craftsman styling, built in 1913 to a design by Charles L. Thompson, who also designed several other buildings on the Hendrix campus.[2] The building served as the college's President's House until 1980, and now houses the college's religious and philosophical studies.[3]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]
