Katsuura, on the bay Hotel (Kamenoi)

Kamenoi Hotel Nachi-Katsuura

Does Kamenoi Hotel Nachi-Katsuura allow tattoos? In a private bath

Private bath only

The former Katsuura Gyoen under the Kamenoi name, on the bay road out toward Nachi, with rooms whose open-air hot spring baths look at the harbor — which its FAQ makes the only baths a tattooed guest should plan on.

Not the large bath or the open-air one off it, whether the tattoo is traditional or fashion — and the hotel’s own answer points at the room instead. Book one of the rooms with a hot spring open-air bath and there is nothing to cover.

刺青、ファッションタトゥー、どちらを入れている場合も、大浴場・大浴場続きの露天風呂のご利用はすべてお断りしております。

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 hotel's own FAQ, which points at the room bath)

Read on: kamenoi-hotels.com/nachikatsuura/faq/

Best for: A quoted rule and a way round it in the same sentence

The rooms are sold as 温泉露天風呂付 and 温泉展望露天風呂付. Note the difference from Kamenoi Nara, whose FAQ accepts a seal: this property's does not. Read the property, not the chain.
