Candeo Hotels Nara Kashihara
カンデオホテルズ奈良橿原
Does Candeo Hotels Nara Kashihara allow tattoos? Yes, covered
You can bathe if the tattoo is completely hidden under a cover seal. The size the property allows is the thing to check before you book — allowances differ enough between chains to decide the matter.
Cover seal required. No size limit is published, so ask at the desk before booking if your work is large.

The operator’s own wording, copied from the page named under “How we know” below. Holding up your phone settles the question faster than explaining it.
Not a chain rule
Candeo does not set this centrally, and that matters more than it sounds. Four of its sky spas ask for nothing — Roppongi and Kyoto Karasuma Rokkaku abolished the rule on 24 May 2023, and the two Osaka properties simply state they do not restrict on body art. Eight others still want a cover seal, and two of those, at Kobe and Nankai Wakayama, take a third route again by setting aside a late-night window instead. So there is no “Candeo policy” to rely on.
Tokyo Shimbashi shows why the property’s own spa page is the thing to read and a notice is not. It announced abolition in April 2024, and its spa page today asks for a cover sticker in the same words the chain’s seal properties use. This site listed it as unrestricted on the strength of that notice until 6 September 2026, and was wrong to.
What happens when you arrive
Cover the tattoo completely before you go in, with a seal that fits the size the property allows — that figure is in the policy line at the top of this page, and it is the property’s, not ours. Where the seals are sold at the front desk, buy them at check-in rather than at bath time; where they are not, bring your own. A seal that does not cover the whole tattoo counts as no seal, and staff are within their rules to turn you away at the door. Nothing needs declaring, but nothing may show.
