Hi @prasannamurumkar ,

You can get location using element.Location

LocationPoint LP = element.Location as LocationPoint;
                string x = LP.Point.X.ToString();
                string y = LP.Point.Y.ToString();
                string z = LP.Point.Z.ToString();

Hi @prasannamurumkar ,

Yes you can get the room name in which your Thermostat is located.

You need to use GetRoomAtPoint() 

 Element e;
                LocationPoint Lp = e.Location as LocationPoint;
                XYZ ElementPoint = Lp.Point as XYZ;
                Room R =doc.GetRoomAtPoint(ElementPoint);
                TaskDialog.Show("ROOM NAME", R.Name);

If this helped solve your problem  mark it as solution
