Gurney Park, Penang
Gurney Plaza, which is over 98% occupied, has
cemented its position as the most popular premier
lifestyle shopping, dining and entertainment
destination in Penang, Malaysia. The 700,000 square
feet mall along the Gurney Drive esplanade has over
260 retail, entertainment and food and beverage
outlets with a department store and supermarket as
anchors. With continued high demand for retail space,
construction work on the Gurney Plaza extension
commenced in April 2007. The extension will add
almost 130,000 square feet of leaseable space and
several floors of carparking spaces on completion
by the end of 2008.
G Hotel, the hotel component of Gurney Park,
commenced hotel operations in January 2007 with
a soft opening. This minimalist-styled hotel is unique
to Penang and features a stunning atrium lobby filled
with designer furniture. By mid 2007, the final onethird
of the stylishly appointed rooms will be available,
offering 16 different types of suites.
