The station has a Midori no Madoguchi staffed ticket office.

Although the station building is steel-framed, the interior and exterior design is conscious of the town of woodwork, which is a rare design for station buildings in the suburbs of Hiroshima.

Hatsukaichi Station was on 25 September 1897 on the San'yo Railway, with the opening of the line extension from Hiroshima to Tokuyama.

With the privatization of the Japan National Railway (JNR) on 1 April 1987, the station came under the aegis of the West Japan railway Company (JR West).
