“By year-end 2018, Chicago hotels are forecast to see a RevPAR increase of 4.1%," says Mark Eble, managing director and Chicago practice leader for CBRE Hotels Advisory.
The building is presently divided into three units that are leased to two tenants, and a portion of the site is also leased to Omnipoint for the location of a cell tower.
"Most of the value-add product still has a demonstrable gap to the newer product, allowing for these opportunities to invest in improvements,” says CBRE's Ted Abramson.
Rubenstein Partners and Amerimar Enterprises are delivering a two-floor amenity space that connects the updated grand atrium with a new fitness center.
Pebblebrook says the sale price includes the 140-room hotel and the 57,000 square foot fitness center which is fully leased to a third-party tenant until June 2019.
