Simple!

string ip = String.Empty;
var props = OperationContext.Current.IncomingMessageProperties;
var endpointProperty = props[RemoteEndpointMessageProperty.Name] as RemoteEndpointMessageProperty;
if (endpointProperty != null)
 {
      ip = endpointProperty.Address;
 }

NOTE It will work perfect after deployment. On localhost, it will give you Network loopback addresses. So, don't worry about that. Moreover! There will be different loopback addresses for IPv4 and IPv6.

All of the request information is passed along with the request as server variables. There are a whole bunch with all sorts of different information have a look at W3Schools list.

In the case of the IP address it is stored in the REMOTE_ADDR variable, you can quickly access this from the Request in a webservice using:

HttpContext.Current.Request.UserHostAddress;

You can use this to get IP Address. 

HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables["REMOTE_ADDR"];
