Barisan Nasional (BN) deputy chairman Mohamad Hasan was also spotted driving past the hotel, headed towards the carpark.
Members of the media have gathered at the hotel since 1pm, but were later told to remain outside hotel grounds as there was an ongoing “unofficial meeting”.
There is also speculation that PN chairman Muhyiddin Yassin will be heading to the hotel later. Reporters have been camped outside the former prime minister’s house since this morning.
