Example methods and systems are provided for location-aware service request handling. The method may comprise: generating and sending location information associated with virtualized computing instance to a service node or a management entity for transmission to the service node. The location information may identify logical element(s) to which the virtualized computing instance is connected. The method may further comprise: in response to detecting, from the virtualized computing instance, a service request for a service from the service node, generating a modified service request by modifying the service request to include the location information associated with the virtualized computing instance; and sending the modified service request towards the service node.
