The Centrum
A spa-pool stay that holds its own against the bigger chains
About this hotel
The Centrum pairs its pool with a spa, the combination that defines Lucknow's better business hotels, and does so with review numbers strong enough to suggest it competes directly with the Hyatt and Crowne Plaza properties nearby rather than sitting in their shadow entirely. The pairing suits a day that starts with the Bara Imambara's long walking routes and ends with a swim followed by a spa treatment rather than a second outing across the city later that evening. Its position among Lucknow's spa-pool cluster means genuine choice for travellers comparing price against amenities before booking, rather than defaulting straight to the biggest international name on the list. Rooms and public areas are kept comfortable enough that the stay itself never feels like a compromise against the pricier neighbours.

Our take
This suits travellers who want the spa-pool combination without committing to the highest-end international brand names in the area. It works equally well for a business stopover or a leisure stay built around old-city sightseeing followed by an evening wind-down. Anyone who specifically wants an outdoor pool as the centrepiece of their stay should compare it against the dedicated outdoor-pool properties elsewhere on this list, since the appeal here rests on the spa pairing.
- ✓Book a spa slot for the evening after sightseeing, since Lucknow's heat makes a midday spa visit feel like wasted indoor time.
- ✓Compare the room rate directly against Hyatt Regency and Crowne Plaza if the spa-pool combination is your main priority here.
- ✓Ask at check-in about same-day spa package pricing, since walk-in rates can differ from what is listed online.
Why we love it
- Spa-pool combination at a competitive price point
- Strong guest review volume for its category
- Fits neatly into Lucknow's Gomti Nagar hotel cluster
- Suits both business and leisure stays
Why guests love itThe Centrum is a five-star Lucknow hotel with a pool and a spa, positioned as a mid-to-upper option alongside the bigger international chains of Gomti Nagar. An 8.3 score from 156 reviews gives a reasonable sample. I would book it for a business or short leisure stay when pool and wellness access matter more than a famous brand, and I would not expect resort-scale facilities.
