The municipality is located in the eastern Slovak lowlands below the small mountain Zemplínske vrchy ; it is separated from the Hungarian town of Sátoraljaújhely by the Roňava river . The place has a road and rail border crossing between Slovakia and Hungary.
The municipality is located on the southern edge of the Slovak part of the famous Tokaj wine region . The Tokaj produced here was known as early as the 13th century and was protected by a special law in 1913. Wine cellars with a length of up to 300 m have been excavated in the tuff and sandstone.
Until the signing of the Trianon Peace Treaty in 1920, Slovenské Nové Mesto was a suburb of the Hungarian city of Sátoraljaújhely.
