The State Guest House (Vietnamese: Nhà khách Chính phủ) is a historical monument in Hoàn Kiếm District, Hanoi, Vietnam. It is presently used as a state guest house.
The building is representative of French Colonial architecture in French Indochina. It was formerly the Residential Palace of the Tonkin Governor (French: Le Palais du Résident Supérieur du Tonkin, Vietnamese: Dinh Thống Sứ Bắc Kỳ), built between 1918 and 1919 to house the French Governor of Tonkin. It was later renamed the Tonkin Palace (Vietnamese: Bắc Bộ Phủ) when the Viet Minh took over northern Vietnam.
