Does Ryokan Gizan allow tattoos? In a private bath
Four baths that lock, in a house of seventy beds strung along the Shin-Hirayu road.
Gizan keeps four private baths and publishes no rule about tattoos on any page of its site. Book one of the four and the shared baths need not come into it. The house holds 70 beds, so the private baths get busy; ask at check-in rather than at bedtime.
