A Royal Reception for CSK at The Centrum, Lucknow

In a heartwarming celebration of sports, tradition, and hospitality, The Centrum—widely regarded as the best hotel in Lucknow—played host to a memorable welcome for the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) team. Cricket legend Mahendra Singh Dhoni and fellow CSK players were received in royal Nawabi style as they arrived in Lucknow for their face-off against the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium.

The atmosphere was electric as fans gathered at the airport and hotel for a glimpse of their cricketing idols. As the team entered The Centrum, rose petals showered from above, students from the Bhaktkande Sanskriti Vishwavidyalaya performed classical Kathak in the team’s signature yellow attire, and the soulful rhythms of tabla and sarangi filled the air.

Bhagwati Pant, General Manager at The Centrum, shared, “They were welcomed Nawabi style, with flower showers, marigold garlands, and live cultural performances in the hotel lobby.” This fusion of tradition and modern hospitality is what sets The Centrum apart as the best hotel in Lucknow, especially during high-profile events that draw international attention.

Chef Chandra Gopal curated an elaborate wellness-oriented meal for the players. Featuring a mix of fresh fruits, salads, beetroot and carrot juice, flavored yogurt, and berry smoothies, the spread was both energizing and delicious. But the highlight was an authentic taste of Lucknow: Nalli Nihari with Sheermal, a dish steeped in centuries-old Awadhi culinary tradition. Complementing this were carefully selected Asian and continental dishes to suit the preferences and dietary needs of all players.


Blending Cricket, Culture, and Class

While the cricket field promises thrills and action, it was The Centrum that stole the show off-field. With the CSK mascot dancing and live music setting the mood, the hotel transformed into a lively celebration hub. The players, including Ravichandran Ashwin and captain MS Dhoni, were seen smiling and enjoying the grand reception.

A guest at the hotel summed it up best: “The Centrum brings together the magic of Lucknow’s heritage with the excitement of modern sport.” This blend of cultural richness and warm hospitality continues to make The Centrum the best hotel in Lucknow for both leisure and events.


A Destination Where Moments Become Memories

By hosting such high-profile sports teams and infusing every welcome with local flair, The Centrum proves time and again that it’s more than just a luxury hotel—it’s an experience. As cricket fever rises in the city, The Centrum remains at the center of the celebration, seamlessly fusing elegance, tradition, and the spirit of India’s favorite sport.
