Does Dormy Inn PREMIUM Tokyo Kodenmacho allow tattoos? Yes, covered

Cover seal required

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.

Refused in principle, admitted if a cover seal hides the tattoo completely. Dormy Inn’s seals come in three sizes up to 118×172 mm (4.6×6.8 in), two per guest at most; each property’s FAQ says they are provided “depending on the facility” and that stock is limited, so bring your own.

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.

The bath

Temma no Yu is on the eleventh and top floor: an indoor tub with room to stretch out, and an open-air bath where you look up at a night sky the hotel says does not feel like the middle of Tokyo. Not a spring. A two-tier dry sauna with a television, a one-person ceramic cold tub to sink into, and the rooftop for the cool-down.

Open 15:00 to 10:00 the next morning; the sauna is off between 01:00 and 05:00. Dormy’s free extras are here: an ice lolly after the bath in the evening and a lactic drink in the morning.

The hotel

134 rooms — mostly doubles, with semi-doubles and Western and Japanese-style twins. Check-in 15:00, check-out 11:00. Breakfast is the chain’s buffet, and the local dishes here are a seafood bowl and simmered beef with tofu.

What is good about it

Getting there

Exit 3 of Kodenmacho STN on the Hibiya line is twenty seconds from the door; Bakuro-yokoyama is eight minutes and JR Shin-Nihombashi five. From Narita, the hotel’s own route is the Skyliner to Keisei Ueno, a seven-minute walk to the Hibiya line at Ueno, and four stops down.

A chain rule, with the largest seals of any chain — when they are in stock

Dormy Inn answers this on every property’s own FAQ page in the same words: refused in principle, but a tattoo that a cover seal hides completely may bathe. The seals come in three sizes — 85×105, 100×140 and 118×172 mm — and the rule is two per guest, so two large ones cover about 400 cm², nearly twice Route Inn’s single seal and more than three times APA’s pair. The Onyado Nono inns are the same company under another name and carry the same answer.

The same FAQ adds two qualifiers that matter: the seals are provided “depending on the facility”, and “stock is limited, so we may not be able to provide them”. Neither is a refusal, but neither is a promise. Bring your own seals of the right size and the rule works in your favour every time; arrive without and you are relying on the drawer at the desk.

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.

Two large seals cover about 400 cm² — the most of any chain listed here — but the FAQ says stock is limited. Carry your own of the right size.
