The fashionable Lake Side Hotel in Hanoi is situated in the locale of Ngoc Khanh near the heady Giang Vo Lake of Hanoi. This 4 Star hotel has the good fate of being housed in close proximity to the US and the Japanese foreign-relations buildings of Hanoi because many international guests of the hotel visit these embassies for various official purposes regarding their passports and visas. The hotel is one of the few Hotels in Hanoi that is situated close to the Giang Vo Center for International Expositions much to the benefit of its guests who flock to the Center to see the items displayed in the expositions.
