Tachibanaya

たちばなや

Does Tachibanaya allow tattoos? In a private bath

Private bath only

Two private open-air baths, Moon and Star, on Atsumi's own source water.

Tachibanaya doesn't publish a shared-bath policy, but it runs two paid private open-air baths, 月の湯 (Moon Bath) and 星の湯 (Star Bath), ¥3,300 for 60 minutes, on Atsumi's own hot-spring water.

あつみ温泉源泉かけ流し。四季を感じ、名湯を愉しむ。

The operator’s own wording, to show at the desk if you need to.

Where it is

Tokyo is the door to all of these. Akiu is the Hayabusa or Yamabiko to Sendai, about 1 h 30, then one bus of 43 minutes from the station. Takayu is the Shinkansen to Fukushima and a bus of 30 minutes up the mountain. Naruko is the Yamabiko to Furukawa and three quarters of an hour up the Rikuu East line. Zao is the Tsubasa, the Yamagata Shinkansen, straight through to Yamagata with no change, then a bus of 37 minutes up to the ski village. Ginzan is the same train as far as Oishida and the town’s own Hanagasa bus. Nyuto is the Komachi, JR’s Shinkansen across to Akita, as far as Tazawako, then a bus of 47 minutes. Hanamaki is the Yamabiko to Kitakami, one stop back on the local line and a bus. Higashiyama is the long one: the Shinkansen to Koriyama, the Ban-etsu West line over to Aizu-Wakamatsu and the loop bus, three hours and more with the waits.
