The station was opened by the Central London Railway in 1900 as Queen's Road. The station was built to the standard template of the CLR designed by Harry Bell Measures and retains its original station building. The station building had a flat roof for commercial development. The Coburg Hotel was built atop the station in 1907. The station was renamed Queensway in 1946 [1].
There used to be a reversing siding to the east of the station, this was replaced by a facing crossover. Trains can be turned back in both directions from Queensway in times of disruption. The station was refurbished in the mid-2000s and the lifts were replaced.
