Kotoden-Kotohira Station opened on 15 March 1927 as Kotohira Station, the southern terminus of the Kotohira Electric Railway, in what is today the town of Kotohira, Nakatado District, Kagawa Prefecture. As the closest station to Kotohira-gū shrine, the original building was a substantial two-storey structure that initially housed a restaurant; the restaurant closed during the Second World War. The station was renamed Kotoden-Kotohira in 1942 as part of a broader tidying of Kotohira-area station names, which also changed nearby Kotohira-Sangū Electric Railway's Kotohira to Kotosan-Kotohira and the Kotohira Express Electric Railway's Dentetsu-Kotohira to Kotokyū-Kotohira. The company merger of 1 November 1943 transferred the station to the Takamatsu-Kotohira Electric Railroad's Kotohira Line, station number K21. The current building, completed alongside the opening of the Great Seto Bridge, was inaugurated on 26 May 1988.

Although JR Shikoku's Kotohira Station on the Dosan Line sits only about 200 m from Kotoden-Kotohira, the schedules of the two railways are not coordinated for transfers.
