Hongō Station opened on 8 December 1921 as a station on the Mii Electric Tramway in Hongō, Tachiarai-machi, Mii District, Fukuoka Prefecture — station number A04. The Mii Electric Tramway merged into Kyūshū Railway on 30 June 1924, which in turn merged into Kyūshū Electric Tramway on 19 September 1942; that company was renamed Nishi-Nippon Railway (Nishitetsu) three days later, on 22 September 1942. The station building was rebuilt in 1954 (one generation before the present one). nimoca IC service began on 18 May 2008, the station became unstaffed on 22 March 2014, station numbering was introduced on 1 February 2017, and the centralised station management system was introduced on 1 April 2021.

Hongō is an unstaffed ground-level station with a single island platform serving two tracks; the platform is narrow. Some morning-rush services are timetabled to short-turn here. The former Tosu Kōtsū route 15, linking Hizen-Fumoto - Nishitetsu-Tosu - JR Tosu - Hatama - Hongō, ran via this station until March 2001.
