Does Arima Onsen Ginsuiso Choraku allow tattoos? In a private bath

Private bath only

A reservable open-air bath in its own building among the trees, apart from the main house, and rooms with an open-air bath of their own in a detached annex; the ryokan’s FAQ sends tattooed guests to the reservable bath by name.

The clearest answer in Arima, and it comes from the ryokan itself: the large baths and the communal open-air bath are closed to tattooed guests, and its own FAQ then names the alternative — take the reservable open-air bath instead, which costs extra. Nothing to cover, and nothing to explain at the door.

入れ墨・タトゥーがある場合は? 大浴場・露天風呂のご利用は頂けません。有料となりますが、貸切露天風呂をご利用ください

The operator’s own wording. Showing it settles the question.

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 (the ryokan's own FAQ, which prescribes the private bath)

Read on: choraku.com/faq/

Best for: Any size of work, without a conversation — the ryokan has already had it

There are rooms with their own open-air bath too, in a detached annex, if you would rather not book a slot at all. The reservable bath is its own building among the trees.
