  We examine the Kerr/CFT correspondence in Einstein gravity extended with
quadratic curvature invariants. We consider two explicit examples in four and
five dimensions and compute the central charges of the asymptotic symmetry
algebras of the near horizon geometries, using the improved version of the BBC
formalism that encompasses the information of the Lagrangian. We find that the
resulting Cardy entropy differs from the Wald entropy, caused by the
Riemann-squared $R^{\mu\nu\rho\sigma}R_{\mu\nu\rho\sigma}$ term.
