You need to use the Geocoder service to get location details from coordinates. The response from the Geocoder will contain all the details. All you need is to find out the details you are interested in.

var geocoder = new google.maps.Geocoder();

geocoder.geocode({
    'latLng': latLng
}, function (results, status) {
    if (status == google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK) {
        console.log(results);
    }
});
