Kōshienguchi Station (甲子園口駅, Kōshienguchi-eki) is a railway station in Nishinomiya, Hyōgo Prefecture, Japan.

Despite the station's name roughly translating to “Koshien Stadium Entrance”, it is located nowhere near the venue, and a bus is required to reach it. The name is derived from the neighborhood the station is in, which is also called Kōshienguchi despite being distant from the stadium.
