The Tōbu station opened on 23 April 1903.[2] The Hokubu Railway opened between Hanyu and Gyodashi on 1 April 1921, with the Hokubu Railway being absorbed into the Chichibu Railway in 1922.[2]
The station was rebuilt with the station building located over the tracks, formally completed on 22 October 2004.[2]
From the start of the revised timetable on 18 March 2006, a new up track was added on the east side of the station to allow non-stop trains to pass, and the Tobu platforms were renumbered accordingly.[2]
From 17 March 2012, station numbering was introduced on all Tōbu lines, with Hanyū Station becoming "TI-07".[3]
In fiscal 2019, the Tōbu station was used by an average of 13,591 passengers daily (boarding passengers only).[4] and the Chichibu Railway station was used by an average of 4,804 passengers daily in fiscal 2018.[5]
