Arima Onsen Gekkoen Korokan
有馬温泉 月光園 鴻朧館
Does Arima Onsen Gekkoen Korokan allow tattoos? In a private bath
Two buildings joined over the river, a reservable cypress bath that is step-free to the water, and two rooms with an open-air bath of their own.
A reservable cypress bath, and two rooms with an open-air bath of their own. The reservable one is step-free right to the water, which the ryokan mentions for wheelchair users and which happens to matter to anyone who would rather not be looked at on the way in.

What happens when you arrive
Skip the shared baths and reserve the private one the way this page describes; once the door is closed nobody is checking anything.
How we know
Confirmed Confirmed from official site — bath structure, not a tattoo policy

Best for: A private bath you can reach without crossing a changing room
Two buildings, 鴻朧館 and 游月山荘, joined over the river; the barrier-free 檜風呂 is the reservable one. The ryokan publishes no tattoo rule either way, on any page read. In a bath you take by yourself that question does not arise — but do not read the silence as permission for the communal baths. One telephone call would settle those.
