Does Hotel Route-Inn Nagoya Imaike-Ekimae allow tattoos? Yes, covered
A radium bath a minute from Imaike’s exit 12, which is as close to a subway as any hotel tub in the city gets.
Admitted if a cover seal hides the tattoo completely. The group FAQ refuses tattooed bathers and then allows the large bath to anyone whose tattoo is fully covered by a cover seal. Route Inn’s seal is the largest of any chain in Nagoya at 11.4 by 20 centimeters, and the front desk sells them. The FAQ sets no limit on how many you may use, only that the cover must be complete.
