Naruto Grand Hotel Kaigetsu
鳴門グランドホテル海月
Does Naruto Grand Hotel Kaigetsu allow tattoos? In a private bath
Two third-floor rooms added in 2023, each with a bath of its own pointed straight at the Onaruto Bridge.
The house says nothing about tattoos anywhere, and silence about the eighth-floor bath is not permission. The way in is one of the two third-floor 展望風呂付和洋室, added in 2023, each with a bath of its own looking at the strait. Book one of those and the shared bath downstairs stops mattering. Every other room type here sends you to the big bath, where the question is unanswered.

Uzushio, JR’s limited express, then the JR Naruto line about 1 h 45 of riding

What happens when you arrive
Skip the shared baths and reserve the private one the way this page describes. Once the door is closed, the bath is yours.
How we know
Confirmed from official site — bath structure, not a tattoo policy (the 客室 page and the 展望風呂付和洋室 notice of 15 March 2023; the FAQ and bath pages publish no tattoo rule)

Best for: A family of up to six who want a private tub over the Onaruto Bridge and a buffet downstairs
The two rooms are the corner room at 90 m² and the balcony room at 68 m² plus 14 m² of balcony, both sleeping six, both on the third floor beside the buffet hall, and the hotel will not let you choose between them. The shared eighth-floor 展望大浴場 has an open-air tub, a bubble bath, a sleeping bath, a jet bath, a sauna and a cold tub, open to guests until 24:00 and to day visitors 12:00 to 21:00 at 1,300 yen. The hotel publishes no spring analysis and never calls the water onsen, so treat it as heated. Same group as Bay Resort Hotel Naruto Kaigetsu and Taimaru Kaigetsu, and guests can use the indoor pool at the Bay Resort.
