Does Arima Onsen Ginsuiso Choraku allow tattoos? In a private bath
The shared baths are restricted, but a private or in-room bath is open to you. You are bathing alone or with your own party, so the communal rule does not apply.
The clearest answer in Arima, and it comes from the ryokan itself: the large baths and the communal open-air bath are closed to tattooed guests, and its own FAQ then names the alternative — take the reservable open-air bath instead, which costs extra. Nothing to cover, and nothing to explain at the door.

What happens when you arrive
Do not use the shared baths — the rule there is a refusal, and the private bath is the whole reason this listing exists. Reserve it the way the property requires: the notes on this page say whether that is a time slot booked ahead, a request at check-in, or a phone call. Once the door is closed nobody is checking anything.

Best for: Any size of work, without a conversation — the ryokan has already had it
There are rooms with their own open-air bath too, in a detached annex, if you would rather not book a slot at all. The reservable bath is its own building among the trees.
