Dormy Inn Chiba City Soga
ドーミーイン千葉City
Does Dormy Inn Chiba City Soga allow tattoos? Yes, covered
Tattoos are allowed if up to two cover seals hide them completely, the largest 11.8 cm × 17.2 cm (4.6 × 6.8 in). The bath is the chain's first, small, with real amber spring water.
The hotel's own FAQ says seals are provided “depending on the facility” and that stock is limited, so bring your own of the right size.

The bath
Sogahama no Yu is small, but the water is a real spring, amber-colored, from the Misato source. The men's side has the indoor tub, a hot dry sauna and a chilled cold bath under a painted Fuji and cherry blossoms. The women's side has the same water in the tub and a pot bath, but no sauna and no cold bath, which the hotel states plainly. Open 3 p.m. to 10 a.m. the next morning; the sauna is off between 1 a.m. and 5 a.m.
The hotel
111 rooms, mostly singles, with doubles, twins, queens and two Japanese-Western rooms. Check-in is 3 p.m. and checkout is 11 a.m., with the chain's buffet breakfast and a local dish.
Good to know
- Ice pop after the bath, yogurt drink in the morning. Dormy’s free extras, both here.
