Does Dormy Inn Tokyo Hatchobori 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.
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
Kamejimagawa Onsen Shinkawa no Yu, on the second floor, is the hotel’s own spring, and the room is built to look like a bathhouse in an old farmhouse — the hotel’s phrase is a place that makes you forget you are in the city. Outside is a rock-lined open-air bath and a generous cool-down space with chairs. The sauna is an auto-löyly type with a television, and the chilled cold bath is filled with the spring water too, which the hotel says is rare in central Tokyo.
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
143 rooms, mostly doubles, with semi-doubles, queens and seven Japanese-style twins, on Simmons or airweave mattresses. Check-in 15:00, check-out 11:00, and the chain’s buffet breakfast.
What is good about it
- A spring of its own, even in the cold bath.

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.
