Tattoo-friendly onsen in Tokyo

Is Tokyo tattoo friendly?

Yes, at more places than you might expect. Of the 15 onsen we have checked in Tokyo, 2 let you into the shared baths with tattoos showing; 5 let you in if you cover them with a patch. 6 turn tattooed bathers away, and 2 publish no rule we could confirm. Each count comes from the facility’s own published rule. Some inns treat day visitors and overnight guests differently, so a place counts here if either one is let in — each card below says which.
