Onyado Nono Asakusa Bettei
御宿 野乃浅草別邸
Does Onyado Nono Asakusa Bettei 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
Ryoten no Yu, in the basement, draws the same kind of water as the inn next door: the annex’s own black spring, odourless, smooth and oddly coloured. In front of the indoor tub is a large painted view of old Asakusa by a craftsman who has drawn the district all his life; beside it a jet bath. The sauna is the difference here — a hot dry sauna with self-löyly and a soft aroma — followed by a chilled cold bath, and outside, in the open air, a hot pot bath under a half roof.
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
117 rooms in more shapes than the main inn: doubles, queens, superior queens, kings, twins, triples and deluxe triples, all with tatami floors and Serta beds. Check-in 15:00, check-out 11:00, and the chain’s buffet breakfast.
What is good about it
- Its own spring, plus a jet bath and a self-löyly sauna.
- Triples and kings on tatami for families who want the bath.
- Four minutes from the Tsukuba Express.

A chain rule, with the largest seals of any chain — when they are in stock
Onyado Nono is Dormy Inn’s ryokan-styled brand, and its FAQ page gives the chain’s answer word for word: refused in principle, but a tattoo that a cover seal hides completely may bathe. Three seal sizes — 85×105, 100×140 and 118×172 mm — and two per guest, so two large ones cover about 400 cm², the most of any chain on this site.
The same FAQ adds that seals are provided “depending on the facility” and that “stock is limited”. Bring your own of the right size and the rule works in your favour every time.
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.
