Can you bathe here with a tattoo?
This is the question we built the site around, so we answer it per situation.
Staying overnight
The tattoo policy is not stated publicly. A private or in-room bath is available, which is often an option for tattooed guests.
How it scores
Every onsen on this site is scored on the same five things.
The baths
Indoor bath
Men's and women's baths with indoor and outdoor sections, open 6:00-10:00 and 15:00-23:00.
Open-air bath
Open-air section of the main bath looking out to Mt Yufu.
In-room bath
Every room has its own hinoki indoor bath fed from the same source as the main bath - the practical answer for guests with tattoos, though the inn publishes no tattoo rule.
A private bath means nobody else is in the water with you — often the practical answer if the shared baths are closed to tattooed guests.
