Can you bathe here with a tattoo?
This is the question we built the site around, so we answer it per situation.
Visiting for the day
Guests with tattoos are refused entry to the facility, so private baths are not an option either.

How it scores
Every onsen on this site is scored on the same five things.
The baths
Indoor bath
Gender-separated indoor bathing area fed by natural hot spring water.
Open-air bath
There is an open-air area; the official site advertises a 'fukanyu' (body-temperature) bath in it. Note the open-air area closes at 07:30, an hour before the rest of the bathing floor.
Practical details
- Day visits
- Yes — you can bathe without staying overnight.11:00-09:00 next day (last entry 08:00; baths until 08:30, open-air area until 07:30)
- Day visit price
- ¥3,500The official price page states 3,500 yen and up (3,500円～) rather than a single fixed figure, so the real charge can be higher on busy days. Discounted rates are 2,900 yen and up with a Mitsui Shopping Park point card or the Tokyo Dome City app, and a Night rate from 19:00 is 2,500 yen and up. The Healing Baden (low-temperature relaxation area) is 1,100 yen extra. Staying between 01:00 and 06:00 adds a 2,500 yen late-night surcharge.

About the day-pass link: Asoview is the main place day-use onsen in Japan sell entry tickets and discount coupons in advance. It is a Japanese-only site, so use your browser’s translation — you show the ticket on your phone at the door.

Why not the train: the last leg to an onsen is usually a local bus with nowhere to put a suitcase. A fixed-price car is booked in English and quoted before you travel, tolls and fuel included.
