Hamamatsuchō is served by two JR East lines of the Yamanote and Keihin-Tōhoku lines. All trains call at Hamamatsuchō.
It is also the terminus of the Tokyo Monorail line to Haneda Airport. The official name of the monorail station is Monorail Hamamatsuchō Station (モノレール浜松町駅 Monorēru-Hamamatsuchō-eki?).

The JR station consists of two platforms with cross-platform interchange in the direction of travel between the Yamanote line (tracks 2 and 3) and the Keihin-Tōhoku line (tracks 1 and 4).
The Tokyo Monorail platforms are to the west of the JR station in a separate elevated structure.
