You can get that information with VMware toolbox command from VM if your VM is running VMware tools. Check out https://www.virtuallyghetto.com/2011/01/how-to-extract-host-information-from.html 

Also, there's a utility which search available hosts available on a network subnet. But it will not reference VMs within these hosts. ESXi Host Finder
