Royal Gems Golf City is an unusual and unique replica golf course not far from the centre of Bangkok which has a front nine with some of the most iconic holes from around the world and a back nine which has been inspired by the Augusta National – home of the Masters. Great fun to dream of playing the Road hole at St Andrews or negotiating your way round Amen Corner - not quite as good as the real thing but then few of us will ever get the chance to play at Augusta. Definitely one of the best golf courses in Thailand and it naturally made our pick of best golf courses in Bangkok.

The holes on the Royal Gems Golf City are not exact replicas but take their inspiration from the famous venues and they have incorporated some of the unique features of the original holes. The course is not too long so can be enjoyed by all golfers and if you let you imagination run wild you can picture yourself playing with the pros on the original holes.

On the front nine you will experience the church pew bunkers from the 3rd and 4th holes of Oakmont Country Club, the 2nd is inspired by the par-5 6th hole at the Jack Nicklaus designed Bay Hill Club shaped like a banana with water all along one side with danger all the way to the green. The 3rd is a par-3 based on the island green on the 17th at Sawgrass – home of the Players Championship and the site of some much drama. You will also experience the Road Hole at St Andrews – the home of golf, the Postage Stamp from Troon and the 18th from the Belfrey.

As you enter the back nine you have the chance to play the last nine holes form Augusta National and experience the drama of Amen Corner yourself. They have planted hundreds of trees which have yet to mature so you need to use your imagination a bit but once they reach their true height then it will look even more like Augusta.

The Royal Gems Golf City has a very modern and luxurious clubhouse with excellent restaurant.

This course was very busy however I had an enjoyable day

Reviewed by Roger Newman; on 13 Nov 2023

The course is a replica course with many famous holes, the back 9 is a replica of Augusta. Unfortunately the course condition was a little bit below what I had expected with the greens had only just been sanded. The round was extremely slow I was a 2 ball so I guess that is expected to a certain degree but all the groups were backed up. We were not able to start on hole 1 because of this and they started us on hole 16, not a good hole to start on with a difficult green and water so rounding it. I don’t think I will come back again but having said that I would recommend it to friends who have not played it

Lovely quiet course outside busy Bangkok

Great potential, but lot of rain made it very wet. Caddy provides great service and putting line is spot on, could improve a bit on English, but on the other hand was fun.

Well maintained, beautiful course.

Reviewed by Darren ; on 06 Oct 2023

Great day off golf, even with rain on the last 3 holes. The back 9 which mimics Augusta, was fun .Joy my cabbie, was very knowledgeable and given I was a single player, she managed to switch holes so I wasn’t held up with larger groups. If your thinking of golf in Bangkok, defiantly play a round at Royal Gems.

Pleasant session & decent course condition, though it feels over-priced

Reviewed by Chris; on 05 Oct 2023

The course condition wasn't pristine, as there were some patches, & could be due to the rain. But overall, it was still in good condition. Some holes were good replicas & provides the clear imagination of how the real one is especially Amen Corner, Augusta 11th hole. I didn't see the St Andrew's bridge or the 18th hole of St. Andrew's. Caddie couldn't converse in English, & locker was damaged. The price is quite steep & definitely needs consideration if playing on weekends.
