The station was formerly known as '''Gare de Montpellier''', but since March 2005 it has been named after [[Saint Roch]], a native of the city who was born in the 14th century. Saint-Roch is one of the principal transport hubs of [[Languedoc-Roussillon]], situated between the stations of [[Nîmes station|Nîmes]] and [[Sète station|Sète]].
The station building comprises a listed front face and a passenger building laid out on three levels. What was the bus station above the tracks is now a short-stay car park. Since the beginning of the 2000s, the station has been in the middle of an [[urban renewal|urban regeneration]] project involving old railway property called the ''Nouveau Saint-Roch''.
Until December 2013, there was a [[EuroCity]] service between Montpellier, [[Barcelona]] and [[Cartagena, Spain|Cartagena]] in Spain. This service was cut when high-speed services were extended to Barcelona and [[Madrid]].<ref name=tr012014>{{cite journal|journal=[[Today's Railways Europe]]|title=15 December 2013 timetable change highlights|page=8|date=January 2014|issue =217}}</ref>
