Showamachi, east side of Kanazawa Station Hotel with a top-floor artificial radium bath

Hotel Route-Inn Kanazawa Ekimae

ホテルルートイン金沢駅前

Does Hotel Route-Inn Kanazawa Ekimae allow tattoos? Yes, covered

Cover seal required

A fourteenth-floor view bath by the station’s east side, running on artificial radium water until two in the morning.

Completely covered is admitted. The Route Inn group FAQ refuses tattoos and then opens the large bath to anyone whose tattoo is fully hidden under cover seals, and the Kanazawa property pages add nothing to change it. The group does not supply or size the seals, so bring your own.

Show this at the front desk

・入れ墨(タトゥー)のある方のご入浴はお断りしております。ただし、カバーシールを用いて入れ墨(タトゥー)が完全に覆えている場合に限り、大浴場をご利用いただけます。

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

Best for: A covered tattoo, a late train and a bath open until two in the morning

Bath Tabibito no Yu on the 14th floor with a view, men and women separate, 15:00 to 02:00 and 05:00 to 10:00. Not a hot spring: the hotel describes an artificial radium bath made with the ministry-approved product Radihope. The only Route Inn inside Kanazawa city on the group’s Ishikawa list.
