Keiō-hachiōji Station opened on 24 March 1925 as Higashi-Hachiōji Station (東八王子駅), the terminus of the Gyokunan Electric Railway, on Kōshū Kaidō in Myōjin-chō, Hachiōji. The Gyokunan was absorbed by Keiō Electric Tramway on 1 December 1926, after which through services to Shinjuku-Oiwake, then Keiō's Shinjuku terminus, began. On 31 May 1944 wartime amalgamation brought the line under Tokyo Kyūkō Dentetsu (the Greater Tōkyū), and on 1 June 1948 Keiō Teito Electric Railway was demerged and took over the station. On 11 December 1963 the station was moved 190 m closer to Kitano under Hachiōji's urban plan, and renamed Keiō-hachiōji Station. The line between Kitano and Keiō-hachiōji was double-tracked on 3 June 1970, completing double-tracking of the entire Keiō Line. The station was rebuilt as an underground station on 2 April 1989, when a West Exit was opened near the site of the old Higashi-Hachiōji Station alongside the Central Exit at the former surface entrance. After the long-held plan to extend the Keiō line into JR Hachiōji Station was abandoned, the land reserved on that station's north side was used for the Keiō Plaza Hotel Hachiōji, which opened on 9 September 1994.

From 16 November 2011 onwards arrival melodies use the songs "Hero" and "Ato Hitotsu" by the Hachiōji-formed rock band FUNKY MONKEY BABYS, with a separate dedicated melody when the limited-stop "Keiō Liner" service arrives.
