Does Hakodate Yunokawa Onsen Umi to Hi, Hewitt Resort allow tattoos? In a private bath

Private bath only

Two hourly open-air baths, Moon and Star, sit twelve floors under an infinity tub that the hotel will not let a tattooed guest into.

The shared bath is closed to tattoos and the hotel says so in one line, so the two rentable open-air baths are the route in. Tsuki-no-yu and Hoshi-no-yu go by the hour at 3,850 yen, 14:00 to 23:00 with last entry at 22:00, and are reserved for overnight guests. Reserve at check-in and the refusal below no longer applies to you.
