A few options:

Using EnvDTE.Solution, get the FullName of the Solution
Using IVsSolution, call GetProperty to get the VSPROPID_SolutionFileName (or VSPROPID_SolutionDirectory if you want the directory)
Get the MSBuild project for the Solution and get the $(SolutionDir) property.

If you want to use the first option (`EnvDTE.Solution`), I should point out that this is passed into the add-in in `OnConnection` and assigned to `_applicationObject`. You can then use `_applicationObject.Solution.FullName` to get what you want. – Neo May 30 '14 at 10:22
