Thanh Lanh stands out for its lakeside course and the tower rising above its clubhouse. With mountains and water close by, it suits a Hanoi golf trip where the scenery matters too. Its formal name is Thanh Lanh Golf Club, also known as Thanh Lanh Valley Golf & Resort. It is a good place to leave time for a clubhouse meal after playing instead of heading straight back to the car.

Sir Nick Faldo’s 18 holes beside the lake
Thanh Lanh has 18 holes designed by Sir Nick Faldo. There are five sets of tees, so the playing length changes with your starting point. For a mixed-ability group, choosing tees that suit each player’s distance can make the round more comfortable.
Some greens extend into the lake, with mountains behind them. The views feel open, yet the water sits close to the putting surfaces. Position matters as well as distance. Lakeside holes and holes backed by mountains have quite different settings.
Stay a little longer at the clubhouse
The clubhouse has a tall tower and pitched roofs. Inside, the restaurant has a high ceiling and plenty of tables. You will also find a bar and a pro shop selling golf equipment, while the locker area has a steam room and Jacuzzi.
A shower and a meal with your group take time after a round. Leaving some room before your return transfer makes lunch or dinner much more relaxed. For a larger group, pass along the number of diners and your preferred meal time in advance.
Out of central Hanoi, toward Thanh Lanh Lake
The course is by Thanh Lanh Lake, north of central Hanoi. Its address now uses Binh Tuyen, Phu Tho, while older articles list Trung My, Binh Xuyen, Vinh Phuc. These refer to the same course under different administrative names. Send your driver the name Thanh Lanh Golf Club and the map location below.
If you are staying in Dai Lai, Thanh Lanh is one course to consider for a day out. From central Hanoi, it is more comfortable to leave a generous part of the day free, including the return journey. Putting a Hoan Kiem dinner appointment immediately after an afternoon round can make the trip back feel rushed.
Give your Hanoi VIP golf trip an unhurried day
Thanh Lanh suits a day of golf, a meal and time to enjoy the surroundings. Arriving, getting ready, playing a round, showering and sitting down to eat can comfortably fill the day. Heading back to rest afterwards may feel better than adding several more stops.
Keep the booking details together: date, group size and preferred tee time, followed by what the quote includes for green fees, caddies, carts, meals and transfers. If you need rental clubs, say whether they should be right- or left-handed. When booking a room as well, separating the accommodation and golf costs makes the total easier to understand.
