A console device for a vehicle includes a housing body fixed by a side face to the ceiling part of the vehicle. The device has a recessed part formed by an opening in another side face, and a cover body that pivots on the housing body. The recessed part can be closed by moving the cover body into place over the recessed part of the housing body. A storage portion formed on the surface of the cover body opposite the recessed part allows small articles to be stored inside it and removed from it only when the recessed part is opened. An illumination portion that radiates light to the inside of the vehicle cabin is formed on another surface of the cover body.
