What is the name of the place where you
go to do laundry by putting coins in the
machines?

Here the term 'laundromat' is commonly used.
What about where you are?

Vaskeri is the place, could also be called Myntvaskeri.
They're not very common anymore, most ppl have their own
washing maschines:)

Here in Germany it is called "Waschsalon", but as Morten
says, there are not many to be found anymore because ppl
mostly have their own washers at home.
