Hi there,

If you head to your Cloud control panel and go to the homepage of the project where the Droplet is, you will be able to see basic information about the Droplet listed when you hover over the Droplet name. The first item that will show up beneath the Droplet name is the name of the datacenter/region where the Droplet is.

If you’re on the manage page for all your Droplets (https://cloud.digitalocean.com/droplets), beneath the name of each Droplet there will be a line with basic information about that Droplet. The last item before the OS will be the datacenter/region where the Droplet is located.

If you actually go to the full page for the Droplet, at the top of the page below the Droplet name, there will be a line that contains basic information about the Droplet once again. The last item in this text before the OS will be the datacenter/region where the Droplet is located.

Hope that helps! - Matt.
