The property at 1500 E Dundee Rd in Palatine, Illinois, is a ±6.11-acre site featuring a closed 181-room Holiday Inn Express hotel and an expansive athletic complex. The hotel is a six-story, concrete-constructed building totaling approximately 90,000 square feet, with case goods still installed in the guestrooms. It includes a lobby, breakfast room, pantry kitchen, and laundry facilities. The athletic complex offers over 60,000 square feet of flexible space, including a 25,400 SF fieldhouse/gymnasium, 15,000 SF health club with 17 courts, 14,000 SF of racquetball courts, and a 3,800 SF indoor swimming pool. Additionally, the second level above the athletic facilities contains approximately 10,800 SF of meeting and event space, including a main ballroom, junior ballroom, and executive boardroom, with a banquet kitchen and direct access to the hotel tower.

Strategically located near the intersection of IL Route 53 and Dundee Road, the property benefits from high traffic counts—78,700 vehicles per day on IL-53 and 24,400 on Dundee Road—and offers direct access to I-90, O’Hare International Airport, and Downtown Chicago. The surrounding area includes retail, corporate offices, and residential housing, with major employers such as GE Healthcare, United Airlines, and Northrop Grumman nearby.

With its substantial infrastructure, prime location, and flexible layout, the property presents a compelling opportunity for repositioning, redevelopment, or reactivation in a resilient suburban Chicago market.
