That's my point. Putting aside any financial cost or benefit (which is just guesswork anyway); apart from a few who might find it amusing to stay in a hotel actually at the ground, I don't see what benefit the hotel gives to the fans. Clearly the 3-sided ground has been an annoyance for years so adding the 4th side is obviously beneficial. It's a no-brainer; therefore there's no point in asking. I suppose it's just a PR exercise.
