The Centrum, a shining example of India’s growing prominence in hospitality, continues to attract not only leisure travelers but also sports lovers and fitness enthusiasts from around the world. The introduction of Pickleball – a fast-growing and engaging sport – reflects the hotel’s mission to offer more than just luxury accommodations. It aims to provide a holistic experience where guests can stay active, engage in social interactions, and unwind during their stay.
Sarvesh Goel, Chairman of the Mansingh Goel Group and promoter of The Centrum expressed his pride: “The Centrum has made a remarkable impact on both the national and international tourism landscape in a very short period. The introduction of Pickleball is another step towards offering diverse activities for our guests. Even the Honourable Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, Yogi Adityanath, praised the hotel’s excellence in hospitality and highlighted it as one of the most successful outcomes of the Global Investors Summit.”
Built in 2021 as part of the UP Investor Summit 2018, The Centrum is not just another hotel; it embodies the spirit of Vocal for Local. Every element of the hotel reflects Lucknow’s rich heritage, from its construction materials to its design. With 117 luxurious rooms, suites, and villas, three world-class restaurants, versatile boardrooms, and expansive banquet spaces, The Centrum has rapidly become the top choice for discerning travellers, particularly those passionate about sports and wellness.
In his inaugural address, Mr. Suhas LY applauded the addition of Pickleball and emphasized the growing importance of fitness in today’s fast-paced world.

During the event, Sarvesh Goel and Mr. Suhas LY unveiled the official T-shirt for the upcoming Lucknow Run 6th Edition 2024 Mega Half Marathon and announced 27th October 2024 as the date for the much-anticipated event.
The Centrum’s appeal goes beyond leisure travellers. With nearby world-renowned attractions like the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya, the Buddha Circuit, and Varanasi, international tourists have even more reasons to visit Lucknow. The hotel’s premium amenities, combined with its reputation as a hub for fitness enthusiasts, have made it the go-to destination for both luxury and sports tourism.

With the rise of wellness tourism, this luxurious property is quickly becoming the preferred choice for visitors seeking both luxury and active recreation.
A project of Anahita Hospitality LLP, under the Mansingh Goel Group, The Centrum is a proud product of India’s Make in India initiative, echoing Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision. As Sarvesh Goel, who recently announced his upcoming new hotel “Eka by The Centrum” in Varanasi, rightly pointed out, “The Centrum isn’t just a hotel, it’s a lifestyle destination.” With its diverse offerings and cutting-edge facilities, it stands as a symbol of India’s growing prowess in hospitality and wellness tourism.
