Bangkok Golf Club

Bangkok Golf Club – Premier Urban Golf Course Near Bangkok City Center

Located just 35 minutes from downtown Bangkok, Bangkok Golf Club is a well-established 18-hole, par 72 championship course measuring 6,812 yards. Founded in 1993 and designed by Chird Boonyarattanevet, this course is one of the few high-quality golf venues near the city and has hosted prestigious professional events like the Asian Tour’s Volvo Masters in 2003.

After suffering devastating flooding in 2011 that led to a full rebuild of all greens and redesign of many tees, Bangkok Golf Club re-emerged in 2012 as a friendlier, yet still challenging golf destination. The course strikes a great balance between garden-like beauty and strategic difficulty, demanding precision off the tee and focused play around its numerous water hazards and bunkers.

Golfers are particularly challenged by narrow fairways and several water-protected par-3 holes, with the signature par-3 11th hole standing out: it features an island turtle-back green guarded by water and a bunker, requiring confidence and skill to birdie. The par-5 9th hole, a double dogleg, was once ranked among Golf Magazine’s top 500 golf holes worldwide.

Fast and undulating greens are a hallmark here, with experienced caddies available to assist with reading the complex slopes and breaks, enhancing the overall playing experience.

The club offers excellent facilities including a modern clubhouse with traditional Thai massage services, a well-stocked pro shop, locker rooms, and diverse dining options featuring international and Japanese cuisine. Practice facilities include a putting green and chipping areas. Bangkok Golf Club also provides accommodation and spa services for golfers seeking an all-inclusive resort experience. For added convenience and enjoyment, the course is fully floodlit for night golf and popular for late afternoon tee times.
