Theme Park Hotel

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Theme Park Hotel is the first hotel to be built at Genting Highlands Resort at its early development in 1971. Initially, Theme Park Hotel was called Highlands Hotel, but it was renamed later on.

The hotel was initially planned on March 31 1969 by the founder of Genting Berhad, Lim Goh Tong from Fujian, China who migrated to Malaysia in his early age. Looking at his great effort, Malaysia's first prime minister, Tunku Abdul Rahman was touched and gave him the one and only license to operate casino in Malaysia on April 28 1969.

Theme Park Hotel is located exactly at the main entrance to Genting outdoor theme park. It has two restaurants at its ground floor, which are Happy Valley restaurant and Penang Food Village restaurant.

To accommodate its increasing guests, not long after its development, Resorts World Bhd add more rooms called Valley Wing, attached to the main hotel building.
