Kyukamura Myoko
休暇村妙高
Does Kyukamura Myoko allow tattoos? Yes, covered
Kyukamura’s Myoko house stands by Myoko Country Club on the Sekiyama side of the mountain and draws its water from Seki Onsen, a spring it describes by its red mineral flakes, though recirculation leaves the bath nearly clear.
Kyukamura’s own rules, which apply at every one of its hotels, turn away tattooed bathers from the large bath unless the tattoo is hidden from other guests, so cover it. For a tub of your own, five rooms have a bath, which the hotel says is not hot spring water; ask for one when you book.

How we know
Confirmed from official site (the Kyukamura group’s own usage rules, qkamura.or.jp/term/; the Myoko FAQ adds the room baths)
Read on: qkamura.or.jp/term/
Best for: A family on a budget who can cover a tattoo, or book a room with its own ordinary tub
The rule is the group’s, not written on the Myoko pages, and says only “not visible to other guests”: no seal size, no seals mentioned for sale. Rooms with a bath: four 10-mat Japanese rooms and one twin, assigned first come first served on request; the FAQ says plainly 客室のお風呂は温泉ではありません. The large bath is indoor only, one each for men and women, on Seki Onsen water that is recirculated and filtered, so the red flakes Seki is known for are gone. Bath hours 13:00–24:00 and 05:00–10:00. Day bathing 13:00–18:00, not in winter. Free pick-up from Sekiyama STN on request; in winter from Myoko-Kogen STN too.
