Arimatsu Onsen Motoyu Lemon-yu
有松温泉元湯 れもん湯
Does Arimatsu Onsen Motoyu Lemon-yu allow tattoos? In a private bath
Two of the eight family baths above this neighborhood bathhouse have their own sauna and cold plunge, filled from a brown moor spring.
Take a family bath upstairs. Lemon-yu has eight private rooms on the second floor, and two of them come with their own sauna, self-loyly and cold plunge. They cannot be reserved, so arrive and wait your turn. No tattoo rule is published for the public bath downstairs.
