The Forgotten Grand Park Hotel

Anyone familiar with Grand Park Hotel in Ipoh? I guess this is certainly not a well known name among Ipoh people. Even after seeing these photos, probably most people may still unable to point out its exact location. Grand Park Hotel is an old mansion at Bendahara Road, right opposite to Sri Maju Express Bus private terminal. It looked like an empty mansion but somehow I believe the hotel is still operating because I see there are cars moving in and out, although it is just very few. With the available land at Kampung Kuchai behind this hotel, it has indeed good potential to be re-developed as a unique heritage hotel, by benchmarking many successful cases in Penang and Malacca.
