Kamenoi Hotel Ome
亀の井ホテル 青梅
Does Kamenoi Hotel Ome allow tattoos? In a private bath
Book a Deluxe Japanese-Western room and you get an open-air bath of your own on the hotel's spring. The communal bath publishes no tattoo rule either way.
The top-floor communal bath, Ome Ayumi no Yu, looking over the Tama River, has no tattoo rule on the hotel's own pages or the group's. Treat it as unconfirmed, not as permission.
The bath
The spring is the hotel's own, Ome Ayumi no Yu, and its water leaves skin feeling unusually slippery, which the hotel makes its selling point. The communal bath is on the top floor with a view down the Tama valley to the Okutama hills. The room to book is the Deluxe Japanese-Western with open-air bath: your own tub on a terrace, with the same water and the same view, and nobody else's rules.
The hotel
Out at the western edge of Tokyo, ten minutes by bus from Ome Station on the JR Ome line, about an hour and 15 minutes from Shinjuku, with a free shuttle timed to the trains. Thirteen room types after the 2025 renovation, from family rooms to dog-friendly rooms with their own sauna, and a garden barbecue in summer.
